Next year I assume. Just like Aus in 2013, they did a cool design and then jumped to the logo in 2014.
That always seemed like they felt the AUS'13 logo pin should have fitted in better with the others, so they changed it, not some pax new location launch thing. But maybe.
They both no longer work at PA
Levin left before Prime, but at that point he had already had a new pin so that was released.
He was still at PAX though with trades.
As for the disappearance of their pins, Ben's pin has always been harder to snag in the States compared to AUS. Maybe they're trying to do the same thing here.
oh yeah i know he doesnt work there, just didnt realise they removed his pin, looking at the aus 14 quest sheet it shows as still available, thats what i meant
Hey, I just saw this over at Wizards of the Coast site and it makes it seem like the pin is separate from the prize wall.

If they end up selling that game at retail price for the pin (aka the $25), I'm just going to laugh because that pin is just not that worth that price.
Hopefully they are planning on having a discount on it.

Agreed. It's a pretty lame design, and should be free without purchase. I wonder how uninspired pins like this make it to production?

Will anyone with some experience care to guess as to how much the buyable pins will cost? I forget how much Scott & Kris usually charge for their pins.
so now that ive had the day to get the initial OMFG NEW PINS I MUST HAVE ALL TUJFJFTJTYR H7YT FRU6JFRT DEHYTFD RH6TRHJFV RKJIYHGUJYG out of my system, its been enough time to properly analyse and review them all and am able to give an opinion that can be considered legible by human eyes.
ill go from bottom to top of the announcement image:
LE Polygon: Just like the 10 year shields, i can already tell that this design side by side with its east/prime/aus counterparts are going to look amazing together, changing the two tone colours in the middle, making the X shiney or reflective. Awesome.
South set: "Welcome home" badge, great idea. the other 3? not great. cowboy gabe is ok at best. Tycho should be wearing an outfit, looks too bland like that. crockett kemper, eh...
LRR Sheriff Spoopifer: not bad, simple design, on face value not as memorable as their others i dont think.
Broodhollow Iris: Great, in a pose that matches her persona in the comic, goes well with the other broodhollow pin
PVP Giddyup: same here, great design, memorable pose
Trendy Ent cannon tower: In general i think characters work best as pins, or a good logo/icon can be really effective, but i think objects lose a lot of appeal just by being...objects.. there are exceptions of course, the hearthstone cards, talent pipes look great. Might be suprised when i see it in person but it doesnt say much to me now.
GTG Baron: Pretty good, reminds me of Sarkhan from AUS last year, which was one of my favourite of the show.
South set: "Welcome home" badge, great idea. the other 3? not great. cowboy gabe is ok at best. Tycho should be wearing an outfit, looks too bland like that. crockett kemper, eh...
Agreed. Seems like a missed opportunity for a Sand set. Also Davy Crockett died at Alamo but he was from Tennessee. This set seems really phoned in.
Why is there always a pain in the ass to get pin each show? Looks like it's Wizards turn...

I don't see how the Undead labs pins tie in with state of decay, well maybe the right one is kind of like a zombie from the game but the left cat thing I never came across in my journey through the game.
And seeing we already had a David Crockett Hat themed pin from prime. Maybe a Kemper with spurs and boots dressed as a cowboy should have been the way to go.
Having said that though.... I still must collect them all!!!

For those who are unaware, the South Set is a call back to a decade old 6 part comic run that occurred during Gabe Actual's Birth. Tycho isn't wearing an outfit because he is The Eye Of The Goddamn Storm.

Kemper is wearing the Crockett hat because Cute.
Good call Pedro. I had forgotten about that series...

The zombie one is for State of Decay, the other pin is for Moonrise, their tablet pokemon-style game they had at Prime 2014.
Edit: As for the Dungeon Defenders pin, I am sad they didn't use one of their characters (or an entire set of characters). I have 172 hours of play time in the original Dungeon Defenders game and enjoyed the hell out of it. Couch co-op tower defense 3rd person shooter game? Yes please! I know they are presenting DD2 at PAX South, but I know for certain the DD1 characters would've looked awesome as pins:

Pins for trade!

@Hingo and @Sammy.Sam - Cheers guys I didn't even make the connection with Moonrise, Thought I was missing a really awesome State of Decay DLC or something.
I'm just glad that once again, Undead Labs willing be giving out their pins for playing demos instead of having to buy them. Gives my wallet some relief.

Yes that's why at our second PAX AUS we got so ma..... Oh. :P
I'm sure they'd take as many new pins as third parties were willing to do at a new PAX. This is how many were willing to take to South.

undead labs: both of these look good, like the colours
Nobody can really tell for sure how a pin will look, and im always to be suprised at a pin that looks better than id originally thought.
