Mater the Greater Junkyard Jamboree Sign 2014 Hidden Mickey Pin 4 of 5

This rectangular pin features a design inspired by the signage found at the Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree attraction, which debuted at Disney California Adventure in 2012. The pin reads 'MATER THE GREATER' in bold, white lettering against a red background, with the word 'THE' centered on a blue strip featuring four small stars. This pin is identified as number 4 of 5 in the Hidden Mickey Cast Lanyard Series, a popular collection distributed primarily through Cast Member lanyards at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. As an Open Edition release, it was designed to be traded for rather than purchased directly at retail stores, making it a classic piece for pin traders. The pin includes a small Mickey icon in the top right corner, a hallmark of the Hidden Mickey series. Mater, the lovable tow truck from the 2006 Pixar film 'Cars,' has remained a fan-favorite character, driving consistent interest in his merchandise. Because Hidden Mickey pins are only available through Cast Member trading, they often carry a sense of exclusivity for collectors who enjoy the 'hunt' at the parks. The simple, bold design captures the rustic, Americana aesthetic of Radiator Springs perfectly. This piece serves as a fun memento of the attraction that allows guests to bring a piece of the junkyard home.
