PFF ate my reply! Put me down for 3 of the GT's. I'll send $$ after I sell the Fiero to pay for the badges.

I say let's keep the original logo version under wraps if it's produced. Someone apparently goes downright... let's say apespit.. over the original logo. My CafePress Fiero store got shut down less than 2 days after I opened it! At least GM didn't sue or anything. They still hold a copyright or trademark on the "Fiero" name, but they don't seem to care as much about it. I'd honestly be very surprised if they were able to enforce that one unless someone was using the logo or representation of the car with it, because it was a word in at least 2 languages prior to the car (Spanish: fierce; Italian: very proud/fiercely proud?).
Here's an idea: what do you do when a lower production item that's no longer produced gets obliterated? I'm getting 2 plus a spare in case one or both get stolen. Fortunately Aus' stage 2's are still possible to get, or I'd probably go into a homicidal rage if one of mine got ruined.
BTW, I'd really like an option of having a mounting post on the back so these couldn't be stolen as easily as popping the badge out of the stock plastic mounting thing.

Like I said up thar ^ I'm a freakin' moron for completely misreading something...
Is there any chance of having GT style badges with the original pegasus? If it's a possibility, then I'd rather wait for them. If it's definitely not going to happen, then I'll take 3 GT's with the new pegasus. In any case, I sent the money via PayPal.

I'd like to do the whole collection, and that will be my ultimate goal. I'm going to start out slow, unfortunately I'm not a millionaire... Regarding the time frame, I'm hoping to be able to do what your looking for within a month or two, sooner if I can sell more of the most popular badges to cover making the others. Every penny that comes from the sold ones will go into getting the less popular ones made. I plan on redoing the Autobadger web site that I have to make it easier for anyone to order which ever they want without going through this thread.
I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support that you have given. The PM's and emails that I have gotten... I can't seem to find the words to explain what a good feeling they have given me. Thank you.

Banks suck. They'll take your money as fast as you can give it to them, but it takes 2-4 business days to cash a check. We were told that the money would be available in parts: some one wed, the rest on friday. The order will be placed on wed. I'm getting sooooooo excited!

Because of this message, we have to wait. BUT, that means that I will throw another version in the order for a total of 4. I also asked them to send me a few of each style in GOLD. Out of 100 per order, there might be someone who wants a super rare badge.
"Andrew-
We are closed until January 2, 2007 for the holidays. I will be able to take care of your order at that time. Please have a great Christmas!"
