Gaston and LeFou - Disney100 Years of Wonder Limited Edition Pin

This Disney100 Years of Wonder Limited Edition pin features the iconic Beauty and the Beast antagonist, Gaston, accompanied by his loyal, dim-witted sidekick, LeFou. Released in 2023 as part of the Disney100 Celebrating 100 Years with Character series, this pin commemorates the studio's centennial milestone. The design captures Gaston’s signature arrogance and vanity, with LeFou looking on in his typical adoring fashion. The pin is a Pin on Pin, adding a dimensional, layered quality that elevates the artwork above the background frame. As a release from the Disney Employee Center, this pin carries the prestige of an exclusive venue, making it highly sought after by serious collectors. Gaston made his debut in the 1991 animated classic Beauty and the Beast, a film that famously became the first animated feature to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. His character remains one of the most popular villains in the Disney canon, known for his over-the-top ego and memorable musical number. The Limited Edition 400 size makes this a relatively low-run piece, increasing its desirability within the competitive Disney trading community. The elegant, metallic framing and the holographic Disney100 packaging underscore the celebratory nature of this commemorative series.
