Ever since I saw Princess and the Frog, Charlotte La Bouff has been one of my favourite Disney characters. Much to my surprise however I've not been able to find any pins of her on Pin Pics. Does anyone know if any designs featuring her exist?
 
i agree she reminds me of my daughter.love that character."daddy daddy please",would be acute fathers day pin.the scene when shes little and begging her daddy for that dress.
 
Charlotte with "Big Daddy" would be such a great Father's Day pin! I just wish I could get some beignets with it!
 
Yes, we also want some Charlotte pins....I also want some of Tiana as a little girl and would LOVE to have little girl Tiana and Charlotte in a pin together. I would love to also see a pin of the picture she keeps to remind her of Tiana's place. I could go on and on!!
 
If you can't tell by my avatar... I would LOVE a Charlotte pin!

If they made a pin of her in her big pink dress I would just die. :)
 
i love when they make pins of rare characters - Charlotte and Mcleach would be great! (and Johanna) Where's great mouse detective pins??!!
 
I agree with everyone else that a charlotte pin. Id like to see her as a child holding the kitten with the frog mask XD as well as her in her pink dress.

I think the designers read this comment and granted your wish ;)
 
See:

Pin 86668: DS - Young Charlotte and Tiana

Part of a 2 part series - maybe the 2nd pin will be them older?
 
I think Charlotte could be a character they could develop a lot of merchandise around, even though the movie might not be one of Disney's biggest hits. I think of her as similar to Marie from Aristocats--not a movie that shows up in a lot of merchandise or in the parks, but that character has some marketability on her own. They seem to try putting her in a pin every so often, and she's a regular at Epcot. Lottie could possibly be a breakout character like that, maybe after some time has gone by. Sometimes a movie that doesn't do well when it's first released can be rediscovered and reach a higher status with later generations.

+1...I love Charlotte and feel that Disney is really missing the boat by not marketing her more.



And I LOVE that pin! I usually keep up pretty well with new/ upcoming pin releases but have been so caught up with the Princess Designer Dolls that I didn't even know about this one! But I am so glad they finally made a Charlotte pin! :daisy:


And Starry_Solo...I hope your suspicions are correct about Part 2 of this series...I would love a pin of them grown up as well. :)
 
Charlotte was over due for a pin and her fist pin is very cute. She was a big part of what I liked about Princess and the Frog. Disney is not big on doing smaller characters, it seems like the focus beyond Mickey and friends is only on a few select characters. Princesses (not the princes), Stitch, Tink, NBC, and Jessica (at least at DSF and online) seems to be the big ones. Now I love Jessica but it would be nice to see other characters too. They need to take a chance on others like Charlotte.
 
Hopefully someone will design one Charlotte pin that will be a hit, and that will get the ball rolling. Maybe some imput from collectors would help. But I think we'll have to be patient either way--I'm sure it's a long process from when they decide on a design to when a product hits the streets. Consider the fact that Disney HAS to know that anything from Tangled is white-hot, but there is still a proportionately low number of Rapunzel pins, almost none with Flynn or Maximus, and NOTHING with Mother Gothel.
