Pinsider 11-30-2015


The holiday season is a time to get together with family and friends to celebrate the things in life that truly matter—like your ever-growing Privateer Pins collection.

As 2015 winds down, the latest pins add a touch of post-Halloween chill and joyous, albeit deadly, Christmas flavor to your Cryx and Circle Orboros pin sets. Plus, the WARMACHINE Weekend special release of the latest Ability icon marks the seventh pin in that unique collection!

When Asphyxious himself finally saw pin action last September, Cryx collectors promptly began to request his symbol as a pin unto itself. So, in November, a special glow-in-the-dark version of the warcaster’s symbol makes its debut alongside two other new pins: the bust of Kromac, Champion of the Wurm, and the latest Ability Icon pin, the ’Jack Marshal, which made it debut at WARMACHINE Weekend in St. Louis.

“The Ability Icons have proven to be a really engaging subset of pins to collect,” says Will Shick, director of Business Development. “We’ve done six others so far [Undead, Commander, Weapon Master, Stealth, Abomination, and Standard Bearer], and we see them on army bags all the time. We get quite a few requests for them as well, so we are considering expediting a few more releases of these soon.”

Kromac continues the bust line begun last April with the Deathjack head, followed quickly by the Gorax and, last month, all three heads of Typhon.
“Let’s face it,” Shick says. “You wouldn’t want to try carry around all the metal a full-size Kromac, Champion of the Wurm pin would require.”
