Lanyard Series 4 - Muppets - Fozzie

This charming pin features Fozzie Bear, the lovable and joke-prone comedian from The Muppets, which debuted on television in 1976. As part of the Lanyard Series 4 - Muppets sub-set released at Disneyland Resort in 2006, this pin was designed as an Open Edition release specifically for Cast Member lanyard trading. The design showcases Fozzie's iconic headshot centered within a circular frame, set against a soft pink background and a vibrant yellow border. The pin also features a textured, bronze-colored outer rim that adds a distinct layered look. Collectors prize this piece for its whimsical depiction of the classic character, who is well known for his signature catchphrase, 'Wocka Wocka Wocka!' Because it was part of the Lanyard Series, it was originally distributed to Cast Members to trade with guests, making it a nostalgic piece for those who frequented the parks during the mid-2000s. Its status as an Open Edition pin makes it accessible to newer collectors, yet it remains a staple for Muppet fans looking to complete their character collections. The simple, bold design captures Fozzie’s personality perfectly, emphasizing his classic felt-like appearance and friendly expression.
