Description
Authentic Disney Parks trading pin from the 'Arcade Game' collection featuring Pinocchio. The pin is designed like a retro arcade cabinet with Jiminy Cricket on the marquee and Geppetto/Figaro on the base. It features a swivel 'insert coin' dangle charm at the bottom. Silver-tone base with recessed recessed detailing. Approx 1.75 inches tall.
Key Features
Nostalgic arcade cabinet aesthetic; Pinocchio is a classic 'core' Disney character with a dedicated fan base; unique dangle element; part of a larger set which encourages collectors to buy multiple to complete the series.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic Disney pins must have the 'Disney Pin Trading' logo, copyright Disney, and frequently a serial number or 'FAC' code stamped on the back. The Mickey-pattern 'waffle' texture on the back should reach the edges. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Minimal to none visible. Potential for very fine surface scratches common with enamel pins; ensure the back post is straight and the dangle charm hasn't been pulled loose.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay and Mercari are the strongest platforms for Disney pin trading. Secondary options include specialized Disney Pin Facebook Groups or the 'Disney Pins' subreddit.
Selling Tips
Use high-quality macro photos to show the enamel smoothness. Use keywords: 'Pinocchio Arcade', 'Disney Pin Trading', 'Retro Gaming', 'Dangle Pin'. Ship in a small padded bubble mailer via USPS Ground Advantage to ensure it doesn't get crushed in letter sorting machines.
