GenEARation D Countdown Collection - Pete’s Dragon

This charming pin features Elliott the dragon from the beloved 1977 Disney film 'Pete’s Dragon,' showcasing his iconic green and pink color palette. The pin is part of the GenEARation D Countdown Collection, which was released at Walt Disney World in 2015 to build anticipation for the major GenEARation D fan event. The design features Elliott peering over a glittery green 'D' icon, which serves as a frame for the character. A notable Dangle element hangs from the base of the 'D,' featuring a rectangular pink banner with the text 'PETE'S DRAGON' in relief. This Limited Edition 500 pin is highly sought after by collectors who focus on character-specific tributes or those who collect the comprehensive GenEARation D series. Elliott remains a fan-favorite character, particularly among those who appreciate the blend of live-action and hand-drawn animation that defined the late 1970s era. The use of glitter fill and the Dangle feature adds significant visual interest, making it a standout piece in the countdown set. Because it was released in limited quantities as part of a specific event countdown, it captures a distinct moment in Walt Disney World pin trading history. Its quality craftsmanship and nostalgic appeal ensure it remains a desirable acquisition for fans of the film.
