Description
Authentic Disney Parks runDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend Challenge pin featuring Genie and Aladdin. This 'Limited Release' pin celebrates the 19.3-mile challenge held at Walt Disney World. The pin features vibrant colors, glitter accents on the magic lamp smoke, and the year (curiously printed as 2026 on the card, though for the 2024 event). Measures approximately 2 inches.
Key Features
Limited Release status, popular 'Aladdin' characters (Genie), runDisney niche appeal, and a possible 'error card' printing (2026 instead of 2024) which can attract variant collectors.
Authenticity Indicators
Official 'Disney Pin Trading' logo on card, 'Limited Release' text, runDisney logo, and waffle pattern on the back (implied by brand new packaging). Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
None visible. The '2026' on the card and pin is a known production quirk for this specific release rather than damage.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (best for Disney pins due to global reach), Mercari (active Disney community), or specialized Facebook Disney Pin Trading groups.
Selling Tips
Highlight the 'Limited Release' and 'runDisney' keywords in the title. Take a clear photo of the back of the pin to prove official markings. Use 'Free Shipping' via USPS Ground Advantage to attract buyers.
