So, collector pins are huge in many fandoms (Disney comes to mind most easily), and yet I am surprised to see that Paizo has never put out any for Pathfinder. Under the accessories in the store, there is a pin section, but it is really just buttons instead of pins (some of them rather large, to be honest).
Using one of the pins that I got from work, I give you a Sample Collector Pin
Wouldn't it be awesome to have pins like this? Here are just a few ideas that my husband and I came up with that would make awesome collector pins:
*Faction pins
*Convention pins
*Holy symbol pins (the idea of the Pharasmin spiral as a pin is what started this whole idea for me)
*National flags (not as likely, but some people might really want a Chelish flag pin)
*Adventure Path pins (get a pin for every AP you've run or played in... come on guys, who wouldn't want a Sihedron medallion pin for RotRL?)
*Iconic pins (I know we had some hard core fans of various iconics here, so it makes sense that someone would love to have a collector pin of Valeros)
*Goblin pin! (because goblins)
These things aren't even that expensive. The Sam's Club pin that I posted as an example cost like $3.99 I think, and that was because it was a small batch order. I know the company we use is called Hogeye, though I am sure Paizo could find any number of companies to make them for affordable prices.
So yeah, what do you guys think? Would this be something you would like to see offered by Paizo?
I would proudly display a pin of the holy symbol of Asmodeus upon the lapel of my jacket!

Going out, being nerdy, and all out creepy monstrous stuff? Why not show your Lamashtu pin! To show your friends that you're proud to be pregnant with a monster blessed by your deity!
Or show random people that you're part of the Pathfinder Society! Or if you're a typical fan of goblins!
This needs to happen, IT DOES!
*Notices note being scribbled and smiles*
Seriously though, I admit that I have a small pin collecting problem... the sample pin that I posted was one of many that I have. I know that I am not the only one.
But yeah, if this does become a thing, the first thing that I will do after squealing with delight over my idea becoming reality is to probably spend a lot of money.
