This rare vintage Shredder movie pin originates from the original 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live‑action film — the release that transformed TMNT into a global pop‑culture phenomenon. Produced as official promotional material under license from Mirage Studios and manufactured by Button‑Up Co., this pin was never sold at retail and was distributed in limited quantities during the film’s original promotional campaign.

Featuring Shredder in his iconic armored design, the artwork reflects the darker, more grounded tone of the 1990 movie that distinguished it from the animated series. The bold colors and dynamic composition make this pin a standout piece of authentic TMNT movie‑era memorabilia. Measuring approximately 1½ inches, it displays beautifully while remaining true to its original promotional purpose.

This example is New Old Stock, unused and unmounted, preserved from original promotional distribution. The backstamp includes the manufacturer’s Troy, Michigan address, confirming authentic early‑1990s production. The “2011” visible on the backstamp refers to the street address and is not a production date.
