It doesn’t look that much different from the ones Stan has available today at conventions. Now, does anyone have a blue Usagi chop pin here? Peace, maka

Oh, I thought he sold out of the new pins.

Dear Readers,
18 years ago i got into a eBay bidding war over one of these pins and spent $30 for it.
2 weeks later i met Sensei Sakai who offered me a box of pins for $5 each.
I know prices have changed but my point is to buy directly from Sensei whenever possible....
Best wishes to all!
go
ps. that $30 pin was my last bidding war.
Now i bid what i think i would like to spend.
If someone else wants to spend more,
the item belongs with them.

Wow! At these prices maybe it would be worth it for Stan to sell pins on his website.
peace, maka

"Emi is in charge of the pins, and she has three new designs: tokage, EEP!, and death skull. She plans to package them quite nicely, so expect an increase in price from the old chop pins (which we will also have)." Sensei Sakai

I think Steve might, as he posted a picture with all three chops on Facebook: old red design (thinner black lines); blue; and newer red design (thicker black lines, slightly larger pin).Maka wrote:Now, does anyone have a blue Usagi chop pin here? Peace, maka
