Hey guys, it's a shame that I feel like every page I have to post about not asking people to buy you things. This is a trading thread, stop throwing money around.
Also this is for pins, not for random other stuff.
I have an extra East Chandra pin that I'd like to trade for an AUS Chandra pin. If anyone wants to make this trade, and they plan on attending PAX Prime, I'd like to trade at the convention. I don't feel like dealing with shipping for a single pin.
Khoo tweeted today that all PA staff will have their own pins at Prime. Looks like another expansion of the series is beginning. I wonder if any vendors besides WotC will have pins as well.
not sure how to feel about this... with all pa members having a pin, it will be incredibly difficult to get all of them, especially for non attendees trading from afar

I suspect the PA Staff pins will not change every PAX, it would make sense to take the same staff pins to each PAX, possibly rotating at every Prime only or not rotating for a number of years. That way each PAX has equal chance of getting the staff pin for that rotation. The Gabe/Tycho personal pins have not changed, they might change at Prime, which would be fitting with this idea.
I also like the idea of more individual pins being spread around and people missing only single pins from their collection, I think that will fuel the community a lot more. I don't really enjoy the almost strictly set for set trading, it's just exchanging merch booth purchases from each country, it's effective and pretty much necessary for the core packs but not really trading culture. This should help diversify peoples collections

Yeah I agree, we all knew that there where going to be more pins being released eventually, like more Vendor pins etc etc and that it will be difficult having a full set.
We just need to look at which pins are going to be rarer and con exclusive, I do think the staff pins won't be Con exclusive... atm at least.
So at the moment WOTC and the Prime set will be exclusive I guess.

Being a completionist is going to be chore at the least. Limited editions like the backer pin are already out of reach and I don't think that I'll even be able to complete a year one set of Pinny Arcade.
The elusive Khoo Pin will be among the rarest :P Pretty sure i saw all the PA members at pax aus except for him, that man is a ghost!
I foresee PAX being one giant Khoo hunt. Pith helmets, khaki shirts and shorts and a giant butterflyKhoo net. "Gadzooks! I got him!" "Bravo, a fine specimen!"

I met him multiple times in one day...and that is exactly the fun of these staff pins! Let the games begin! Personally I'm looking forward to the Sadsad pins, Levin has the greatest signature ever (if you missed it, "L(sad)²") and I imagine they design the pins, so I hope they make theirs a little quirky :P

My small group of three formed a pin hunting party at one point at PAX East. We set out on a quest to obtain the Enforcer and Gabe/Tycho pins. This time at PAX Prime I'll be in a party of only two, so if anybody wants to join forces in tracking down staff members for pins feel free to join us. You can either PM me or shoot a tweet @ClixWizard.

Just putting it out there, if anyone ends up with any of the new staff pins and wants to trade for one of my spare PAX East pins or misses Misses Mike's or Jerry's pins or even the piny arcade trader pin id be up for trading them
My Pax Aus sets and Chandra AUS pins are still only for direct swaps though ( AUS Chandra for Prime Chandra and aus set for prime set )
aww so some aussies have gotten their dlc pin already? im still waiting for mine...where do you live? im in QLD and its thursday morning, packages usually come in the afternoon
Yea, this justifies it for me to not have all the pins, just ones I really want. Can't wait to see what they have in store for us. I am excited for the staff specific pins.
40+ new pins...I have a feeling there will be a good amount of booth exclusive pins. Come on Behemoth.

40 pins. That is just... that is entirely too much. I'm all for more Pins, but it seems like PAX Prime will quickly turn into a giant swapmeet each year. Instead of attending booths to look at the games, people will be queuing for the Pins.
I'm hoping that number includes the new Sets they were talking about having available at the Merch booth as well as online.
i suspect prime will be the one where they release new pins each year. 40 pins seems way too many to be exclusive to one pax. So im thinking these new pins will also be at pax east and aus 2014, and then another new set ready for prime 14, that basically gives a year for people to collect before they change up

I'd be lying if I said I've never stood in line for a demo only to get the swag at the end of the line.

Jeez...
Well I guess that's what they wanted from this whole thing, I think it's better this way though and only have the ones that you think are cool.
Having a whole set would truly be a massive achievement.
Helps cut down on set for set trading and I think individual pins are awesome.
I wonder how many people will lose interest though and go more casual with collecting or just sell their sets, I've seen a couple online already.

Well, we know 4 for Prime Set, 4 for Core Set 2, 17 (?) for Staff, Chandra Prime. So that is 26.
I'd be lying if I said I've never stood in line for a demo only to get the swag at the end of the line.
