Pin Release - Halloween Series Witch Jessica

The Halloween Series Witch Jessica Rabbit was released October 6, 2008 on the Disney Store Website. It sold for $14.95 and is a Limited Edition of 250. This was one of the fastest Jessica pins to be sold out. Jessica is wearing a large witch hat with a tatter veil, pointy gloves, a red dress with light purple fishnet from her bust to her neck and fishnet stockings. She's sitting in a pose similar to her neon sign on a cauldron with green bubbles foaming around her. There is some printing done on the bubbles to add highlights and I believe her green eye is printed on as well. This was released alongside Witch Tinker Bell, Jack Skellington, Vampire Mickey Mouse, Undertaker Stitch, Headless Horseman and Chernabog. Even Vincent (from Tim Burton's first short film) made his pin debut.

Jessica's - Signature Store of a Toon Diva

For an updated look at the Jessica Rabbit store in celebration of what would have been a big anniversary, check out these articles:

Jessica Rabbit Store 25th Anniversary:
Part One: The Beginning
Part Two: The Building
Part Three: The Merchandise

Have you ever been obsessed with a cartoon character? We all have our favorite. Now, imagine finding out there is a store dedicated to selling merchandise of only that character! Well, if you happen to like Mickey, it's not a hard thing to grasp. But, if you liked a more obscure character, like Jessica Rabbit, it would have been nothing short of a miracle. Enough has been said on the success of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but what could be said for a character who wasn't even the star of the film getting her very own store!

Pleasure Island opened as a nightclub-based attraction for adults, but by day everyone was welcome. Disney began to focus attention on more park-exclusive merchandise. A few stores sold merchandise of the current Disney features, an exclusive Disney animation art gallery was located in the heart of the island and then of course, there was Jessica's.
