A Spacey Crest
We are moving into the second half of the Crests of the
Kingdom pin series, which means it is time to hit one of the most popular
attractions at Disneyland – Space Mountain.
As you’d expect, the crest features the iconic white outside
of the attraction. Okay, so here it is
gray since the entire front of the pin is made from pewter, but you can
definitely see the outline of it.
Circling the crest is the trail of a shooting star, and a few other
stars are around the edges. The Latin
phrase this month is on the trail from the main shooting star. It’s “Eamus ad astra,” which means “Let’s go
to the stars.” Once again, that’s
perfect for the attraction.
When you flip the crest open, you’ll see the cartoon picture
inside. There are no recognizable
characters this month. Instead, we get a
picture of two astronauts sitting in their spaceship, which looks remarkably
close to the vehicle we ride in for the attraction. Around them, we see the bottom of another
space ship, stars, and planets.
As much fun as it would be to have a Disney character in
this picture, it doesn’t diminish my love of the pin. And I feel like the outside is perfect. It’s a fun variation on a theme, and I always
love that kind of creativity.
I’m not surprised that Space Mountain received a crest
during this pin series last year. Since
the attraction is so popular, I’m happy it was such a great release.
