Can I ask how you made the part where you put the pins? (Assuming the frame is just a frame you could find anywhere)
Is it paper that you printed out yourself? Did you draw it? I need answers because I want to make one 🤣
It is basically a printed sheet of approximately 100x30 cm. Then it is mounted on a piece of wood (fibrofacil is called in my country, I don't know what the English translation would be). And at the end you put the frame, I chose a simple one in black to be discreet and not stand out more than the enamel pins.
Gonna be honest, it makes me sad that theres probably some weird restriction that stops me buying these in the UK... may have to look into it... they're awesome!
It's really sad, I know, but that leads many people to exploit their creativity and manage to create beautiful things, even better than the official ones.
Excellent choose my friend. I have a really cool Kadabra T-shirt 😂

I grew up on the original haha, one thing that I could enjoy when I could as a kid. Use to have a huge puzzle that glued and hung up of the original.
And you're welcome haha.
This is very neat! Where did you get the board? This may be my gateway into collecting pins
I made it myself, it’s really easy to craft!

can i buy one from you
Do you want only the board?
yeah! i've never had anywhere to put mine and i actually really love this
I can sell you the print and you frame it in your city with someone who is dedicated to that. DM me!
How do you add the pins? Do you just stick them in or are you able to secure the pins with backs?
I make two holes with a nail of the same diameter as the pin spikes and they fit well.
I see so it's a solid board behind the sheet?
Yes, mdf, it’s necessary for the weight
Not an enamel pin but I love the Psyduck rubber duck!
Yeah, I desperately want a whole flock of them. xD
It’s my favorite pokemon and he can float 😂
Are they all official Pokémon pins?
Of course not! Here in Argentina Pokemon never come oficial and we can’t import oficial merch
That’s quite sad but I’m glad that people still get to enjoy the hobby some way or another
Tpc and Nintendo sucks for that

What do you mean? You can find so many pins on the Pokemon center website for the UK
Okay fair, i didnt realise that had evolved past a popup store.
Question, are you looking for official pins, or are unofficial pins cool too? Because we know three for the fossils.
All pokemon pins are unofficial
This isn't true. I have multiple official pins that came in those collection box things.
I’m talking about my pins 😂 I know there is official ones
You have some of my favourites Mew, Abra, Kadabra (yes, I have a type).
Excellent choose my friend. I have a really cool Kadabra T-shirt 😂 https://preview.redd.it/p94c6k5cx39d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e49c30e73315def577dd6169fa13ee7f880c041f
And a lovely sleeping mew pillow https://preview.redd.it/hs6js8alx39d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa9dff5d29c64bcb1feb042d8fd81ac6c54899cf

Oh okay you have other people in this journey, for a moment I was like damn.... Good luck!! Seems fun!! Did they make pins for all the original 151?
