NECA Hunger Games Mockingjay Pin

Product Information

In the first book of The Hunger Games series, a little-known character to movie fans, Madge Undersee, gifts Katniss with her emblematic Mockingjay pin - but why? It is a very pretty necklace, but the chain is very thin so if the person is a bit rough with their jewelry it's not the one to choose. Alternatively, and perhaps more conspiratorially, it’s possible Madge gave Katniss the pin deliberately to help stoke the fire of a fast-approaching revolution against the Capitol that her family played a role in starting. His interests include film, television, tabletop gaming, and spending as much time as possible with his cat, who is just great.

Interestingly, this musing came before the 74th Hunger Games competition actually began, which suggests that the "rebellious" symbolism of the mockingjay was already established - or at least implied - before Katniss even arrived on the scene.

Unknowingly, the pin became a sign of rebellion to the Capitol since mockingjays were created after the disastrous experiment with jabberjays. The classic mockingjay pin is represented by a bird carrying an arrow suspended in the center of a circle. The mockingjay pin was originally given to Katniss by Madge, the mayor's daughter, before Katniss's departure to the Capitol to participate in the Hunger Games (3.For Madge, the bird and pin could symbolize remembrance, a relic from a relative that she was never able to know. The well-conceived corporate design work they did on the Mockingjay image is especially important in representing four stages that move us from a sense of captivity, to resistance, on to full-fledged freedom as we journey with Katniss. While out in the woods, Katniss encountered two women from District 8, Bonnie and Twill, who were rebels on a journey to District 13. The Hunger Games books also note that the revolution against the Capitol, which Katniss eventually became the preeminent symbol of, was in development sometime before Katniss entered the picture. Each tribute is allowed one item to remind them of their friends and family in their home district; the small pin bearing the image of a bird in flight is Katniss's.

The mockingjays are a reminder to the government of the collapse of the jabberjay plan, and the bird becomes an important symbol for Katniss in later books.This pin was Katniss Everdeen's tribute token and was worn by her in the arena as a symbol of her home district. The Capitol tried to breed jabberjays, birds that would relay conversations back to government officials, but the experiment was a failure when people began lying in the presence of the jabberjays.
