Moving this to its own thread. Please dont move the other posts Phil, I want this as the top post! Badge designs are done. I am sending the designs to print this weekend. What I need from you guys is: - If you are a contributor, let me know which two badges you want, I will make sure some extras are done
- If you want a full set of all 25, let me know. They will be £2.50 for materials plus a donation to Toy Fu. Otherwise extra badges are 10p each for materials plus donation.
- They will all be available for free at TFN but availability will be limited!
- I will be making 500 badges for TFN. Currently thinking of doing 40 of each of the main Armada six and 15 of each of the others (I think that works out). But I might make more/fewer. VOTE IN THE POLL for the badges you like!
- Do any designs need tweaking? Let me know now!

Put me down for a full set if you havent already.
Lucky draw Prime looks shiney.
Megazarek is possibly a bit overwhelmed by the background colour.
Otherwise all good.

Megazarek is possibly a bit overwhelmed by the background colour. That might be the photo, I think in hand he looks the best! Of course I might have terrible taste! I'm going to make the text on Megatron bigger, lighten the eyes and add a white border to Powerlinx Prime, and maybe make the red on Optimus Prime more vivid, like the Smokescreen one. |

This is a silly thought, but why no Hot Shot with jAm on the name tag?

This is a silly thought, but why no Hot Shot with jAm on the name tag? You might not be able to see at that size, but the Hot Shot one has his name as 'hOt sHoT' in red comic sans |

Matt is going to be VERY busy over the coming weeks I am! Looks like I'll be needing to put another order for badge parts in too! So uh, please make it worthwhile with a donation for Toy Fu, it does take hours and hours to make this many badges! As I said, I'll be trying to get the print order in this weekend so if you want particular badges as a contributor or a full set let me know now, I can't guarantee anything otherwise! For full sets (£2.50 + donation) I have: Andy T Gav Pinwig Browny Dezzeh Bogatan Inflatabledalek I assume you're all at TFN? |

Have I said I'd like a full set? I'd like a full set please. You have! Full sets are: Inflatable dalek Bogatan Turnbull Gav Pinwig Browny Dezzah Ed and Matt Dallas have reserved their contributor badges If I don't hear anything by end of play Saturday, I'll assume anyone left isn't bothered about getting any particular badges and they can get a random one. (I don't mean to keep yammering on about it, but I don't want anyone to get upset by missing out!) |

I applaud your efforts. Toy Fu will benefit!
I am now wondering how many Blueshift Hub related badges I do not possess. So I've got the two for Gymshoe, last year's TMUK Sausagefist and the two Rock Lords. Have you done any others?

Nope, that's it (unless you also want to count badges for the village day and vintage bus day my parents organise!) I bought the badge machine specially last year. Expensive but I've got good use out of it! I feel like 25 different designs was a bit ambitious. OH WELL! Lesson learnt! Ow ow my hand! |

This pleases my collecting gene greatly. To have a complete set of Blue's badges! I will be badge complete!
25 is quite a step up from... 2, BUT - your efforts are hugely admired. These items will be THE souvenir piece from this year's con for me.

Most people will only see six |

Ah, but that's like saying Combiner Wars is really nine toys. You're still making all 25 badges! recolours count. I think the Dion one now has to be the 'Botcon Exclusive' badge, and Megazarak has to be a 'Tokyo Toyshow' edition.

So you're saying that one of the badges you only get if you're in the bar on Friday night? |
