Two new D23 Gold Member-exclusive “Mulan” collectible items will be available to purchase beginning next week on shopDisney.
New Collectibles Celebrate 25 Years of ‘Mulan’
With the 25th anniversary of Disney’s “Mulan” occurring this month, D23 is releasing a limited edition pin and medallion for the occasion.
Since its theatrical release in 1998, ‘Mulan’ has been one of the most popular films in Disney’s library of works. The titular character, Mulan, is a fan-favorite Disney Princess, inspiring enthusiasts to “discover and channel that which makes them truly brave.”
For those who have missed out on this film so far, Disney describes the premise of their “Mulan” adaptation below:
When her ailing father is called upon to fight in a turbulent war against the ruthless Huns, Mulan does the unthinkable—she takes his place, disguising herself as a male soldier in the Chinese Army. Accompanied by a lucky cricket and fast-talking dragon sent by her ancestors, Mulan must fearlessly fight alongside her fellow troops, led by Army-General Li-Shang, and defend her country as well as her family’s honor.
“Mulan” is based on a legendary heroine (Hua Mulan, 花木蘭, or 花木兰) from real Chinese folklore between the 4th and 6th century CE. A live-action film loosely based on the animated adaptation was released by Disney in 2020.
D23-Exclusive Mulan 25th Anniversary Pin
One of the two items to premiere from D23 for this occasion is a Gold Member-exclusive cloisonné pin. It features Mulan as Ping, Mushu (her dragon companion), and cricket Cri-kee perched upon her shoulder. It comes on an illustrated backer card inspired by the Fa Family Garden. Fans will remember this location as the place in which Mulan reflected on who she truly was inside, deciding to fight for her family in her father’s place.
This D23-Exclusive “Mulan” 25th Anniversary Pin, offered in a limited edition of 1,500, will be available to D23 Gold Members beginning at 8 a.m. PST on Tuesday, June 13, 2023, on shopDisney.
D23-Exclusive ‘Mulan’ 25th Anniversary—Commemorative Emperor’s Medallion
The second item available to purchase for D23 Gold Members is a collector’s medallion inspired by the one Mulan receives from the Emperor of China.
This medallion comes displayed on a red ornament ribbon for hanging, and is packaged in a commemorative box embossed in gold with “Celebrating 25 Years of ‘Mulan’” written on the top, as well as the edition size of 750 listed.
The item features the Imperial Dragon symbol on one side, and the words “Mulan 25 Years” on the other.
The D23 Gold Member-exclusive “Mulan” 25th Anniversary—Commemorative Emperor’s Medallion, offered in a limited edition of 750, will be available to D23 Gold Members beginning at 8 a.m. PST on Tuesday, June 13, 2023, on shopDisney.
‘Mulan’: A 25th Anniversary Outdoor Screening
In addition to the two new merchandise offerings, D23 is hosting a special 25th anniversary outdoor screening of “Mulan.”
According to the official D23 release, the event will allow guests to “Relive the epic adventure of Disney’s animated classic.”
This magnificent event will take place on May 28 at the Los Angeles State Historic Park in Los Angeles, California. We promise, this is one event that won’t bring dishonor upon you—or your cow!”
