PinnyPals 2025 Pinned - Part 4 - PAX West

I know I may not be in the majority here, but this pinny pal was VERY EXCITED by the release of a Bubsy pin at West this year.

Bubsy’s reputation is polarising, but my
10-year-old self will always have a soft spot for this weird Bobcat, obsessed with balls of wool and t-shirts power ups.

Bubsy, Bubsy, Bubsy,
Bubsy Bobcaaaaaaaat!!!

PinnyPals 2025 Pinned - Part 3. #PAXEast2025 gave us our first pin quest for the year.

Among Us snuck back into the pin quest with a new 3D saboteur, the fourth in their quest to take down pins.

They thought they could sneak by this year, opting to make their move at East, rather than West from the last three years attempts. But the community was savvy and found the imposter at the Shell Games booth.
