Which ICONIC Valiant covers would you like to see as pins?

Post by paradise »

I am working with Zen Monkey helping them create new pins. We are trying to do more "nostalgic" pins, including VH1 stuff.

Show me covers that you think would make good pins. Here are the rules:

1. Single character that can be isolated onto a pin (not a big group scene, those are too hard to make)
2. Iconic cover that people will want to get.
3. No "licensed" characters (Solar, Magnus, Turok or derivatives from those titles)

OK, go. I may be able to get Zen Monkey to send a free pin to the first mention of a cover that makes it onto a pin (and if they don't I will do it).

I’ve thrown a few at them already, but this just popped into my head, and could possibly be a stellar pin. I was just talking on Twitter with someone about more Savage, think this would be hot!

Also, it’s new, but Fallen World would be fun!

Solar man of the atom 10.
Either that cover or the second print.

Seriously, as a pin. Rai covers lend itself well, pins so small, I think rai 1 trevor h 1:20 variant.
I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

Shadowman black. Good choice Greg, much better than my Solar 10 suggestion.

I'd go with VH1 Rai 0. Doubles as a bloodshot pin.

Saw some pins that are being submitted to valiant already, a few that mirror suggestions here. Let me tell you, they are amazing. Can't wait to make gold exclusives of at least 3-4 of them.

ICONIC is the only way to describe them.

The goal of this series is 90s Valiant nostalgia so it's all VH1 pins and they are stunning

Hmm, you may have to eat your words, Greg. Wait till you see what they are working on. I am helping, too, it's going to be bonkers. We can make that pin look NEW and irresistible.
