Hidden Mickey 2018 DLR - The Emperor’s New Groove - Bucky

This pin features Bucky the Squirrel from the beloved 2000 Disney animated film, The Emperor’s New Groove. Released as part of the 2018 Hidden Mickey series at the Disneyland Resort, this design captures Bucky's frantic and expressive personality. The pin is circular in shape, featuring a stylized background with geometric patterns reminiscent of the film's Incan-inspired aesthetic. As a standard Open Edition pin, it was originally distributed through the Cast Member pin trading program at Disneyland Resort, making it a classic find for traders. The small, iconic Hidden Mickey icon is embossed on the lower left of the circular frame, confirming its status as an official Hidden Mickey release. Bucky remains a fan-favorite sidekick due to his hilariously tense interactions with Yzma, making this a sought-after piece for fans of the movie. This pin serves as a great entry-level piece for those building a themed collection around Kuzco and his companions. Because it was part of a park-wide trading wave, it is a quintessential example of the fun and discovery inherent in the Disney pin trading experience. Collectors value this piece for its charming character design and its specific connection to the 2018 Disneyland Resort Hidden Mickey set.
