Simba Disneyland D

This collectible pin features young Simba, the beloved protagonist from Disney's animated classic, *The Lion King*, released in 1994. The pin depicts Simba standing in front of a vibrant orange "Disneyland D" icon, which is a classic emblem of the Disneyland Resort (DLR) that has been historically associated with the park's identity and early Cast Member (CM) guide pins. As part of the Disneyland Resort (DLR) Hidden Disney 2025: Wave A series, specifically the "Disneyland D Characters" set, this Open Edition (OE) pin is part of a collection originally distributed for trading with Cast Members. Hidden Disney pins are characterized by a small, debossed Mickey icon, which on this pin is prominently featured at the top of the "D" logo. *The Lion King* is celebrated as a pivotal film of the Disney Renaissance, telling the epic tale of Simba's journey to reclaim his rightful place as king of the Pride Lands from his villainous uncle, Scar. Collectors value this pin for its portrayal of a highly popular character, its connection to a beloved film, and its inclusion in a park-specific Hidden Disney series. While initially obtained through Cast Member trading, these pins are later made available for purchase in mystery pouches at the Disneyland Resort, making them generally more accessible than Limited Edition (LE) releases.
