Accurate Pac-man Pinback Button Set @ Etsy
I recently started creating buttons that appeal to my geekness. My favorite creation so far is my Pac-man Button Set.
I used screen shots from the US Arcade version of the game to create these buttons. This means that they are all accurately colored & to scale (except for the “READY!” button, for size constraints).
Everything important is included in this set:
- Pac-man
- Shadow / “Blinky” / Red Ghost
- Speedy / “Pinky” / Pink Ghost
- Bashful / “Inky” / Blue (Cyan) Ghost
- Pokey / “Clyde” / Orange Ghost
- A Reverse Ghost
- Bonus Cherries
- Pac-dots w/ Power Pellet
- “Ready!”

Cool buttons!
I found your post through Google searching for this exact same thing. Apparently we share the same level of geekiness.
I had originally planned on just buying the buttons pre-made, but it seems so easy that I am beginning to think that actually investing in the supplies and making them myself would be even better, and give me much more freedom to actually make the buttons I want.
Thanks for the link over to Etsy — I will probably still buy the Pacman buttons ready made, but I am wondering how much knowledge you have of the vendors who sell the machines and supplies. Where did you get yours, if you don’t mind me asking?
I have been shopping around and seemed to find the best prices for button machine products at American Button Machines (hopefully the link works!) Do you have any experience with them? I am always wary of big purchases online, but this site came the highest recommended from some other people I’ve talked to who purchased similar products.
I’ll be checking back here to see if you comment, but please feel free to email me to. Any info you could provide would be very helpful!
