Pit People Pins & Other PAX Merch

PAX Prime 2015 is now a week away and we’re shipping off a whole lotta merch to Seattle for our gift shop at Booth 3003! In addition to our usual array of keychains, posters, and select apparel, we have some new items that are making their way to PAX Prime for the first time ever:

5 new Pinny Arcade pins! This is also our Series 5 set of pins!

 

We’re joining in on the collectible madness known as Pinny Arcade. Each participating exhibitor has their own style of releasing pins out into the PAX world. Our tradition is to sell our pins blindboxed in our capsule machines! We call them the CHONKU CHONKU machines because that’s the Japanese onomatopoeia for the crank as you spin the knob on the machine.

 

All Pinny Arcade pins that are sold at PAX are set at $10. You’ll be able to purchase a coin from one of our staff standing next to our Chonku Chonku machines (cash only) or at our gift shop (cash & credit accepted).

 
We’re also bringing back a super limited quantity of pins from Series 1, Series 2, and Series 3–all combined in one Chonku Chonku machine. Series 4 pins will be in a separate machine on their own.
