So I have been wondering what you guys think the ugliest LE pin is. For me, I think it's a pin that pops up every time I search LE Haunted Mansion pins. Here it is:

Pin 61411: WDW - The Haunted Mansion - 6 Mini-Pin Boxed Set (Bride only)


So what do you think the ugliest LE pin is?
 
XP This is the one that springs to mind from most recently. The proportions are all wrong.



After this, one of the older ones that comes to mind is this.



He has red jewels for eyes, but to me, it looks like his eyes have been removed from their sockets.
 
This thing has to be one of the ugliest pins I've seen and it's an LE250. The weird lines that are supposed to be shadows look more like scars and what should be Elizabeth Swann looks more like Michael Jackson. Granted, I don't actually care for the Pirates of the Caribbean movie merchandise but this, even without my bias, just looks awful.
 
I passed up "the Love bug" LE 10,000 on a lanyard yesterday. It's pretty bad when you won't even give up a trader for an LE. I've seen some ugly ones though. The Rapunzel ticket from DSF was pretty bad. Some of the ones above are good examples of epic fails...
 
touching on a couple popular charactures.
#80876 thanksgiving 2010 stitch. the color combo leaves something major to be desired.
#57580 Jessica as roger Rabbit. Totally lost the Jessica appeal by putting her in baggy saggy pants and giant feet.

both not horrible pins, but definatly fails.

there are also several Tink LE's out there with crazy eyes, bad faces, scarey color combo's....
 
So, I am a total stickler for art, and here are the ones I think to myself "WTH, was this Disney Artist DOING??!?! D:"

Here are some random Ariels I found with, bad, bad, bad faces:

Good stuff guys! lol!

Here's a LE250 pin that immediately came to mind. It used to be on my wants list until I took a closer look...


It looks pretty decent right? Nice old car on a purple background with the Ducks. I like.
Let's zoom in. How about now?



Woah!! What happened to HDL and Scrooge!? They look cracked out or something.
 
Ahaha some of these are pricelessly bad xD. I saw some pretty dang ugly ones in Paris last month so I was afraid to look at some CM's lanyards incase I felt compelled to trade with them cus they were super nice!

Hmm don't agree with the Jessica as Roger pin, It's actually a grail of mine now! I adore it, but I think it's because I'm a Jessica cosplayer and I love seeing her all slobbed down like me in my p-jammies xD.

Some fails I've seen are:

http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=7470&sid=8011.1335226364.v2
just because their eyes are so messed up!
 
That is HILARIOUS, Tanya!

Here are a couple of my least favorites:



That purple ant is supposed to be Princess Atta from "A Bug's Life", in case you couldn't tell.



The outline of Remy's bottom lip is way too thick. It is gold metal, which makes it even worse in real life.



Okay, this is not LE. I just had to share it.
 
#57580 Jessica as roger Rabbit. Totally lost the Jessica appeal by putting her in baggy saggy pants and giant feet.

I actually completely disagree with this one- I think it's an awesome pin. None of the "Jessica as..." pins are bad enough to rate in this category, IMO, but if we were going to rank them, I'd say Goofy is worse than the Roger pin, which is cute and relevant. And the 4 latest ones (Hatter, Jasmine, Esmerelda, and Tink) are all worse than Goofy. ESPECIALLY the Tink.

Now, you want to talk butt-ugly Jessica pins, let's look:



(besides having shady origins, it's ugly, to boot)



The snowman and overall design are bad enough...but Jessica looks bricked in it, too.



...wut.



When will they figure out that "snowman" Jessica doesn't work?

ALL of the pre-pin trading era pins (1980s/90s). Examples:

 
The "poop pin" *SCREAMING WITH LAUGHTER!* That almost makes me want to get it ("almost" being the key word)!

It seems that half the pins that really suck have characters with weird eyes.

PixarPerils, where is that weird-looking Monsters, Inc. pin from? What's the Pinpics number, I'd like to get a closer look at it (I collect Monsters, Inc. and Toy Story pins).
