Crush

This charming pin features Squirt, the adventurous and endearing sea turtle from Disney/Pixar's 2003 hit film 'Finding Nemo'. Released in 2005 at Disneyland Paris, this piece is classified as an Open Edition pin, making it a classic staple for collectors of early 2000s era park merchandise. The design captures Squirt's youthful spirit and iconic look, rendered in a simple yet effective enamel style that highlights his distinctive shell pattern and friendly expression. As a beloved sidekick character, Squirt remains a perennial favorite among fans of the film, often sought after by those building character-specific collections. The pin serves as a nostalgic memento from the mid-2000s, a period when pin trading at Disneyland Paris was expanding rapidly. Because it is an Open Edition, it was widely available at the time of release, though it has since become a charming piece of history for long-time traders. The quality and simplicity of the character's pose make it a great addition for anyone who enjoys the 'Finding Nemo' franchise or underwater-themed Disney collectibles. Its enduring appeal lies in the character's popularity and the clean, classic aesthetic of the pin's design. Whether you are a fan of Crush's 'totally tubular' son or simply love the sea turtles of the EAC, this pin represents a significant era of Disney park character pins.
