Quick answer
The FiGPiN Overwatch enamel pin is a versatile collectible that can be displayed like a figure or worn as an accessory. This FAQ covers attachment, display, care, and collecting tips.
Why the FiGPiN Overwatch pin stands out
Unlike standard enamel pins, FiGPiN uses an innovative pin backer system and museum-quality acrylic display cases, allowing you to treat the pin as a mini figure. The Sombra #168 is approximately 3 inches tall, making it a substantial piece that works equally well on a jacket or a desk.
Because FiGPiN designs are officially licensed and numbered per character, each pin becomes a unique collectible tied to the Overwatch universe. The enamel finish is durable, but the metal edges can scratch if handled roughly, so care matters.
FiGPiN Overwatch Enamel Pin FAQ
How do I attach the pin to a backpack or jacket?
Use the rubber clutch backings included with the pin. Push the pin through the fabric, then slide the clutch onto the post. For thicker fabrics, you may need to push firmly. Avoid forcing the pin through very thick denim or multiple layers.
Can I display the pin without a case?
Yes. The pin backer itself allows the pin to stand upright on a flat surface. For a more polished look, consider an acrylic display case, which protects the enamel from dust and scratches. If you display on a desk, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent enamel fading over time.
How do I clean the pin?
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water only. Do not use chemical cleaners, alcohol, or abrasive pads, as they can damage the enamel finish.
Will the pin fit standard pin collectors' boards?
FiGPiN posts are a standard 3/32 inch diameter, so they fit most corkboards, fabric boards, and pin display frames. The rubber clutch should hold securely on boards up to about 1/4 inch thick.
Is the Sombra #168 pin limited edition?
FiGPiN releases are numbered per character, but availability can vary. Check the product page for current stock. If it is a standard release, it may be restocked; if a special edition, it could be limited. Bookmark the product page and sign up for stock alerts if the pin is out of stock.
Can I trade or sell this pin later?
Yes. The numbered design and official licensing make it desirable among collectors. Keep the original packaging and any authentication card to maintain its value.
