The Story

The Genie arrived in Disney's Aladdin in 1992, voiced by Robin Williams, and his rapid-fire impressions set the template for the modern animated sidekick. This collectible catches him in the pose most people picture: rising out of the lamp in a swirl of blue, arms crossed, eyebrow up. VeVe's description leans into the arc from the film, a being trapped for a thousand years who ends up asking Aladdin for his own freedom.

Unlike the BLACKPINK or Buzz Lightyear drops, this is not a set of one character in several poses. The Aladdin "Diamond in the Rough" Character Series is a mixed blind box: the Genie is the Rare, Aladdin is the Ultra Rare, Princess Jasmine is the Secret Rare, and there is an Aladdin Pencil chase as a second Secret Rare. So the Genie stands alone as a single sculpt, and it is the most common face of the box at 2,594 editions.

The Genie shows 2,594 editions with a single edition burned, so 2,593 circulate, and that count is fixed on-chain. Because the box mixes four characters rather than four poses of one, chasing the full Aladdin lineup means opening past the Genie to reach Aladdin, Jasmine, and the Aladdin Pencil chase.

Market Context

This was a Season 6 Disney drop that ran as a blind box and waitlist. The market fee is 8.5 percent. As the Rare tier, the Genie is the least scarce piece in the box, which keeps its secondary floor low and makes it the affordable entry into the Aladdin series. The set now lives on the Collect blockchain after VeVe's January 2026 migration, with StackR handling secondary trading since April 2025.

Collector's Note

The Genie is the accessible way into Aladdin collecting on VeVe and a clean pickup for anyone building Disney firsts, since it is the character most people associate with the film. If you want the scarcer end of the same box, Aladdin and Jasmine sit above it. Copies trade on the VeVe secondary market and StackR, often below the $40 retail. New to VeVe?
