The owner of This Forum (Kanamai) asked me to post it up here to see how many people would be interested.
You can find a non-pony example of the pins he will be ordering above.
Some Copy Paste After the Break!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Important Information:
I was thinking that it would be really cool to have a Rainbow Dash cutie mark pin to wear when I am at conventions so other bronies could find me easily.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyways I was thinking some of you might be interested in getting your own as well.
The pins will be 1 inch in size. If we order 300 pins, then the cost per pin will be $2 plus shipping. Shipping from my house to yours would be $1-5 depending on location and how many pins you order. The more pins that get ordered the cheaper the price per pin will be.
I will keep everyone in this group order up to date on how close we are to ordering. Complete production takes 2-4 weeks after artwork is approved by the company that is making the pins.
The website she will be ordering the pins from is below
US PIN
And the order form she is using to gather everyone
Rainbow Dash Pin Order Form

person ordering them is a she, fyi.
I put myself down for one!
I'd buy cuff links if he was making cuff links
Reserving judgement until I see the cutie mark pin. But first impression is good.
definitely getting one and putting it on my ACen badge. INSTANT BRONY RECOGNIZATION!
@Sandman
I will most likely order some extras to sell to those who dont pre-order.
Sign me up!
Do want.
THIS IS AN INVESTMENT I'M WILLING TO PUT GOOD MONEYGOLDS ON
@Sandman
I will be ordering some extras of the pins to sell to those who dont pre-order/miss pre-orders.
Britfriend here, do they get shipped to other countries? If so, yay, if no, ah well.
What would shipping be to western Canada, ~Vancouver area?
I'm so ordering one for me and my best friend. Because Friendship is Magic! :D
@Kyradren & BronyMike
Yes I ship international.
I'll be getting one
what is that picture? because it's definitely NOT rainbow dashes (or ANY other pony's) cutie mark...
As awesome as a rainbow dash pin is, I kinda want an earth badge now. Ground-type 4lyfe. (And Rocket, of course.)
Its an Earth Badge from Pokemon, it just up as an example of the metal pin quality. I will not have any photos of the cutie mark pins until they are made unfortunately.
@Zarkanorf SHUT UP AND TAKE MY BITS!
Ordering five. May need moar.
1) Holy crap yes. I am so beyond mere interest -- I will probably have to buy a half dozen of these.
2) I vote we hold an art contest for an official community logo, and make THAT into a pin that we can show off at conventions and whatnot. So down for this~
@Bejoty

Interesting. I second this idea.
That EARTHBADGE should be really familiar to anyone from SWF...where did it come from?
Nice, but it would have to be through different payment methods. I refuse to use Paypal, and money order is too impractical.
Paypal Hates me but I will order as soon as I get around their disdain for me.
Ooh, I remember this guy from /vp/! :D
I have the earth badge shown and will say that it is top notch quality for a badge.
definitely buying multiple of these.
I would like to see the design though
(if ppl want pictures of the other gen1 pins just say so btw)
@Kanamai
How much would shipping to europe cost?
@Kanamai I would pre-order. It's just that while the example looks nice, I would like to see the actual one I'd be ordering.
Pre-ordered two.
I may not use them much, but it looks promising. And though we lack an example of the badge itself; the sample image looks like promising quality.
I imagine Kanamai will probably do quality checking, so I'm not concerned about the pins winding up crap.
Well, I'd like all the Kanto badges from Pokemon, as well as the cutie marks from MLP :O
Going to order 2
I'd definitely like to get in on this. I'm in Canada, so it's good to hear you ship outside the US.
Just out of curiosity, what was your source image for Dash's cutie mark? I suppose there's probably a vector of it floating around somewhere.
I have a high quality vector of it, which you can see here - http://gallery.dollymarket.net/albums/kana-dolls/ponies/rainbowdashcutiemarkpinart.png
I am not the person who did the pokemon badges btw. I just used it as an example since I am ordering from the same company he did, and everyone that I know who bought the badges said they were really good quality.
Also I have done quite a few group orders and I handle large amounts of money like this on a regular basis. You guys can check my feedback, which is linked to on the ordering form. I also run a doll magazine where pre-ordering is basically the only way to order it unless a shop decides to stock it.
I'm just another pony, and yes, I would definitely be interested.
Furthermore, I would be willing to buy an entire set of pony cutie marks (the 6 of them).
And to think, I had just been wondering if other bronies would be attending comic-con, and how I would find them! Signed myself up for one, so awesome.
MY MONEY, TAKE IT
I'm preordering 5 right now.
>rainbow dash cutie mark pin
>mai waifu
>shutupandtakemymoney.png
Preordered five here too.
So far 145 pins have been pre-ordered. So we need 155 more to reach the 300 mark.
Once we have reached 300 pins I will send out invoices to everyone.
MUST HAVE! I think I'll have two.
My hoof is in!
You have no idea how much I love you
We are at 171 pins now!
Hhow would you pay with cash?
To pay with cash you will need to get a money order at the post office. I dont want concealed cash getting stolen, so money orders are the best option for those who dont have paypal.
I have thought it over, looked at example and image.
I'm in for three.
I bought the Pokemon badge set made by this company on /vp/. They are high quality pins, and I've already preordered this.
Ordered 4
I want one
We are at 184 pins now! 116 left till our goal.
Scratch that we are at 217 pins. I missed a couple when telling my spreadsheet to add the numbers.
So only 83 more to go!
Preordered 3!
234 Pins now! 66 to go.
251 out of 300! 49 to go.
@Kanamai
Hi Kanamai,
I thought maybe you might like a higher quality vector of rainbow's cutie mark. The varying line weight of the cloud in the vector art below is more faithful to RD's actual cutie mark. I understand that the pin manufacturer may only be able to use a thicker line.
Anyway it can't hurt to offer

(I ordered 3 pins anyway)
@Kanamai
Kanamai,
Will the invoices be the first email we receive from you? I signed up to order one pin but I never received a confirmation email so I just wanted to make sure that was normal.
Thanks.
Well I will send out an email to everyone with exact pricing per pin and shipping options. Then I will send out invoices.
Yea no confirmation email is normal, they have yet to add an automated feature like that for google docs forms.
-Number of pins? What kind of silly question is this? 1.
Wait, what if it gets damaged? 2.
Oh no, what if I lose it? 3!
...
Just ordered two.
Just ordered 3. I can't wait!
300 out of 300 pins!!
Anyways I will close pre-orders tomorrow evening after I get internet at my new place which should be between 4-8pm EST.
Once pre-orders are closed I will send out pricing info and shipping info. Then I will send invoices.
@Kanamai
How will you find me?
@2000cookies
If you pre-ordered any of the pins then by email address?...
Anyways we are at 342 pins. Pre-orders will close at midnight EST tonight!
Celestia damnit, I didn't get paid until today.
So how can I obtain one of these pins if I didn't pre-order in time?
I will have some extras available for sale once I get them. So just keep an eye out on Equestria for a post about them.
How are the pins coming along?
Has anyone received theirs yet?
@Anonymous
I know a guy actually! They should be doing a spot on him soon, just sent EQD the picture and info.
