Front Description
This eight-pin Character Compass set of 2012 Hidden Mickey pins was released in Wave A at Walt Disney World. Each round pin features the head of a Disney character centered on top of a stylized version of a directional compass and looking right at you. The pins have a very thick border and eight spikes inside to represent the points on a compass. The borders are a solid color, the spikes the same as the border alternating with white. At the bottom of each pin is a solid-color scroll banner bearing a silver Walt Disney World logo. The small Hidden Mickey icon is on the right side of each pin, just between the east and southeast spikes. Pins were originally only available by trading with a cast member. In 2012, pouches containing two random 2012 Hidden Mickey pins were available to purchase for $10.95.
The five common pins include Tinker Bell from Peter Pan, Simba from Lion King, Sorcerer Mickey, Lagoona Gator from Typhoon Lagoon and Ice Gator from Blizzard Beach. Ice Gator and Tinker Bell are repeated on the two silver Chaser pins. The Completer pin has Figment from EPCOT on it.
