Love the pin set, reminds me of Disneyland where you collect pins of alot of Disney’s characters. Is there a Pin set for Stargirl and Batman the animated series? I would love to see that.:slightly_smiling_face:

My write in would be Vic Sage, The Question! The pins that are shown in the above add look great!

My questions about the process of making the pins would be…

  1. How do you go about getting the rights to do the characters that you make pins of? Do you have to have visual concepts already developed or do you just ask for specific characters and then have to get approval of the appearance?
  2. Is it usually a long process getting rights and do you ever get turned down on approval for certain characters and logos?

Batman Who laughs is awesome.
Would Dceased designs possibly be in the future?

Since Figures Toy Company is coming out with a Kid Devil figure, how about piggy-backing off of them with a pin?

OK, I’ve got a question: what are some creative ways that you’ve seen people DISPLAY pins? If I don’t want to put them on my clothes, then what other options are there?

My write-in vote would be for Plastic Man, I think that would be a very unique pin.

Hello thanks for stopping by.

My pin to make choice would probably be the bat who laughs or red hood.

My question is is there a character that you haven’t made a pin yet that you want to make a pin?

I second this opinion and also throw in Blue Lantern Flash (just the symbol would be pretty cool).

I would have voted the Batman Who Laughs, but I gotta give my Robins some love first, so Red Hood it was.

Question: What goes into the manufacture of these pins?

I’d like to see a Killer Frost version.

Do you have artists that create these or do you use existing artwork from DC Comics?
