Simba on Pride Rock - Festival of the Lion King - Animal Kingdom 25th Anniversary

This vibrant Limited Edition (LE 4000) pin celebrates a significant milestone: the 25th Anniversary of Disney's Animal Kingdom, released on April 21, 2023, at Walt Disney World. It features the majestic adult Simba, from Disney's iconic 1994 animated film *The Lion King*, proudly perched atop Pride Rock. The pin's design incorporates elements from the beloved "Festival of the Lion King" show, a Broadway-style musical revue that premiered at Disney's Animal Kingdom on its opening day, April 22, 1998, and remains the park's longest-running attraction. The pin utilizes a Pin on Pin (PP) design, with Simba and Pride Rock forming the raised, dimensional element against a pale blue background with sky-like streaks, enhancing its visual depth and appeal. As part of the broader Animal Kingdom 25th Anniversary series, this pin holds special significance for collectors, commemorating both the enduring popularity of *The Lion King* franchise and a quarter-century of one of Walt Disney World's unique theme parks. The combination of a cherished character, a popular live show, and a milestone park anniversary makes this a highly desirable collectible.
