Hidden Mickey 2013 WDW - Patriotic Shields - Figment

This pin features Figment, the beloved purple dragon and mascot of the Journey Into Imagination attraction at Epcot, depicted in a patriotic shield design. Released in 2013 as part of the Walt Disney World Hidden Mickey 2013 series, this pin is one of several designs in the Patriotic Shields subset. The pin showcases Figment against a background of red-and-white stripes and blue, star-studded space, with a small silver Hidden Mickey icon located on the right side of the shield. As an Open Edition pin, it was originally distributed through the Cast Member pin trading program at Walt Disney World Resort, where collectors could obtain it by trading with cast members. Figment remains one of the most iconic and popular original characters created for the Disney parks, having debuted in 1983. Because this is a Hidden Mickey pin, it was never sold on a retail card, making it a staple of the secondary trading market. Collectors highly value this piece due to Figment's enduring popularity and the unique shield-shaped aesthetic that appeals to fans of patriotic Disney merchandise. Its status as an Open Edition release makes it a classic entry-level pin for those beginning their Figment collections.
