Hi,
I've been doing a little research and I came across a few group buys run a couple of years ago to remake/reproduce IBM Model M badges to replace the original ones. I know unicomp sells the lock light stickers but even then they only sell the normal pearl ones or the ugly (IMO) newer unicomp ones, and even then I don't need a lock light sticker I need a new oval IBM badge.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is this something that other people have been wanting as well as myself?
Thanks
Getting a hold of a new oval IBM Model M badge?

Are you looking for the black industrial badge or like the grey or blue badge? Also do you have a full size M or a Space Saver M?

these are all I have left, ran out of original Beige and Blue original IBM badges, all these are industrial replicas for full size M's (No SSK's)
When i run out, I'll order in a 100 or so more and keep permanent stock in case anyone needs them in the future. Also trying to get hold of the SSK order numbers so I can order some of those in as well

I'm having a custom badge made for my F122 which comes in a week. I'll be sure to take pictures when I get it.

(whoops, I just realised the age of this post)
