Presenting the Lincoln International Monsters Collectible Pins by Toy-Ventures Collectibles.
The Lincoln International Monsters are one of my favourite childhood memories, and I always want to find ways to work with them. I designed each pin based on the original packaging art I’m utterly infatuated with.
The idea came because I wanted to make a set of Lincoln Monster pins for myself, and it spiralled from there. The factory I used for this was quite excellent. I’m elated with their quality and look. Sometimes you make things for yourself, but you also want to share. You can get the Lincoln Monsters individually or as a unique carded set while supplies last.
It was also really fun laying out that card. I wanted to make it like a gumball machine card as much as possible, but my Rack Toy biases ultimately won.
The Lincoln Monsters pins are available at our store or on eBay.
Lincoln Monsters Collector Pin Series
I’ve also made a few other collectible pins based on knockoffs and characters from this website. Look for a few more designs coming very soon.
