Interested in Rag the Viking but don’t have two dollars? How about 99 cents?!

And one more for today – below is picture of all the buttons I’ll have available at the Expo in April.
I didn’t have the original art handy for the two on the right, so that’s an old picture. The buttons are all the same 1″ round size.

As I mentioned, bend6000 was the winner of the contest for the original art. Here’s some pictures of what he’s getting.
