Released in 2015 as a limited edition of fifty pieces, this unauthorized variant features a well-made, approximately two-thickness Ariel from *The Little Mermaid* with shimmering light blue glitter and translucent dark blue details in k gold plating. While the earlier "AP" version displayed a lighter dress color with a decorative backstamp reading "Limited Edition" and maker initials like "AVP", this specific production only produced one unit and bears a backstamp error stating "AP/". The unique identifier of this item is its distinct design choice to mimic real Disney Designer Pins, which were originally authorized by Disney itself but are strictly unauthorized products. Unlike the standard limited edition run featuring a darker dress, this AP piece includes a different color scheme and was distributed exclusively through a direct trade, though it has since appeared on secondary markets and later runs with altered backstamps.
