Quick answer
Start your Pin Bazaar collection by focusing on themes you love, then display pins on a dedicated board or shadow box to keep them visible and safe from scratches.
Why Pin Bazaar pins stand out
The Pin Bazaar series from The Broken Token features enamel pins with playful, oversized eyes that give classic board game creatures a cute twist. Each pin is a small, durable piece of art that fits easily on a lanyard, bag, or display board.
Because these are collectible pins released in series, you may not find every design in stock at once. That’s part of the fun—hunting for the next pin to complete your set.
Trade-offs to know before collecting
Enamel pins are sturdy but can scratch if you stack them without protection. The metal backing post can also dent soft surfaces if pressed too hard. Plan your display surface accordingly.
Pin Bazaar pins are small—about 1 inch across—so they work best on a compact display board or as accents on a larger collection.
How to collect and display Pin Bazaar pins
- Choose your theme or series: Decide whether you want to collect all pins from a single series (like Series 2) or mix themes such as aliens, monsters, and fantasy creatures. Sticking to one series makes completing the set easier. Check the Pin Bazaar page regularly for new series releases so you don't miss a pin.
- Prepare a display surface: Use a corkboard, fabric-covered foam board, or a shadow box with a felt insert. Avoid bare wood or metal that could scratch the enamel. Leave at least 1 inch between pins to prevent rubbing. A shadow box with a glass front protects pins from dust and accidental bumps.
- Attach pins securely: Push the pin through the display surface and fasten the metal clutch firmly. For thicker boards, use a rubber back instead of metal to avoid bending the post. Test that the pin doesn't wobble. If the pin feels loose, add a small silicone grip pad between the clutch and the board.
- Rotate and clean occasionally: Every few months, remove pins and wipe them with a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. Rotate which pins are most visible to keep the display fresh. Avoid using water or cleaners—enamel can dull if exposed to moisture.
