Description
The Zool Special Issue Enamel Pin Badge is part of the 33 Games Zool collector programme, sitting alongside the Premium Collector's Edition and Ultimate Archive Edition as a standalone companion piece. A 50mm hard enamel badge featuring exclusive new artwork by an original Gremlin-era illustrator, presented on custom card backing.
The pin works three ways. As a standalone collector object for Zool and Gremlin Interactive fans. As a way to deepen a Premium Collector's Edition order with a printed companion piece. Or as a singular pickup for collectors who already own the game and want one of the licensed merchandise objects from the same release window.
The release is officially licensed through Umbra Dynamics on behalf of the rights holder Urbanscan, alongside the wider 33 Games Zool programme.
Origin & Condition
- Condition: New (Officially Licensed Release)
- Brand-new 50mm hard enamel pin badge produced by 33 Games under official licence from Umbra Dynamics on behalf of rights holder Urbanscan

Worth it if
- You collect retro gaming pin badges and want a properly licensed Zool / Gremlin Interactive piece
- You are pre-ordering one of the Zool editions and want to add a printed companion piece without the cost of the full archive box
- You want to support the 33 Games Zool programme through one of the smaller-format collector objects
- You already have the Ultimate Archive Edition and were expecting this pin to be included. The Ultimate ships with the collector's coin and certificate, not the pin badge. The pin is a separate standalone release
-
Probably not for you if
- You only want the artwork in print form. The Zool Premium Trading Card Set or A Gremlin in the Works hardcover are the print-led pieces in the range
- Your primarily interested in the video game cartridge, in this case the collectors edition game would be ideal for you as it is the lower cost option for the game cartridge release.

FAQ
Q: Is this pin badge included in the Zool Ultimate Archive Edition?
A: No. The Ultimate Archive Edition ships with a 50mm heavyweight Zool collector's coin and a numbered certificate of authenticity, not this pin badge. The pin badge is a separate standalone collector piece in the 33 Games Zool range. If you want both, order the Ultimate Archive Edition and the pin badge as two separate pre-orders.
Q: Who designed the artwork?
A: An original Gremlin-era illustrator. 33 Games has worked with original Zool creative contributors across the wider release programme. The pin features exclusive new artwork commissioned for this release rather than reusing a 1990s asset.
Q: How big is the pin?
A: 50mm across, in hard enamel finish. A large badge by typical pin-badge standards, sized for shelf and display use as well as wearing.
Q: When will my pre-order ship?
A: July 2026, per the 33 Games production schedule. We will despatch as soon as stock is allocated to ZedLabz from the manufacturer's UK production run. You will receive email confirmation with tracking at the point of shipping.
Q: Can I add this to my Zool Premium Collector's Edition or Ultimate Archive Edition pre-order?
A: Yes. Add the pin badge as a separate item to the same order in the cart and we will despatch everything together once both items are ready to ship.
