Hidden Mickey 2018 DLR - Surfboards - Mike Wazowski

This Open Edition pin is part of the 2018 Hidden Mickey Surfboard series released at the Disneyland Resort. It features a stylized, lime-green surfboard design inspired by Mike Wazowski from the beloved Pixar film Monsters, Inc., which premiered in 2001. The pin includes a central target-like emblem in green and white, a small shark fin icon at the bottom, and the iconic Hidden Mickey icon near the top. As a Hidden Mickey pin, this was originally available only through Cast Member trading at the Disneyland Resort, making it a sought-after piece for those who enjoy the thrill of the hunt. The surfboard theme pays homage to the vibrant, laid-back surf culture often associated with California and the Disneyland Resort. Mike Wazowski, the small, one-eyed monster, remains one of Pixar's most popular characters, ensuring steady interest in this specific surfboard design. Collectors prize these Hidden Mickey pins for their unique, minimalist aesthetic and their status as park-exclusive items. Because this is an Open Edition pin, it was produced in larger quantities than limited releases, yet it remains a staple for completionists of the 2018 Hidden Mickey set. The clean lines and bold color palette capture the essence of the character perfectly without needing his full likeness.
