I got a set of enamel pins representing the Crystal Temps. I bought them at an online store called The Mystery Shack. The site does not say who the designer is and they aren't licensed by Cartoon Network as far as I can tell. They allow you to buy any pin individually for $9.99 or get all 4 at a discount for $29.99.
They are pretty nice in person and look slick, though personally I am not a huge fan of the designs chosen for Peridot and Lapis. Let's take a look.
Peridot:

This is her typical alien symbol in a bubble. I understand the alien symbol since she consistently likes this emblem, but she only bubbled once, and she didn't bubble an alien head, so I am not sure why they picked this to represent her.
Lapis:

Lapis's symbol I at least understand; the mirror is strongly connected to her imagery. But I don't think she'd like a symbol of her slavery and imprisonment to become her emblem.
Pumpkin:

This is SO CUTE. They didn't bother to invent a symbol for Pumpkin; it's just Pumpkin, with the party hat Pearl nose. It's larger than the other pins and has two posts on the back.
Connie:

Rose's sword makes sense for Connie as it's connected to Steven while symbolizing that she's the offense of the Steven/Connie relationship. It's a lovely image and has two posts to keep it steady.
Overall I really like these pins!

I'm afraid of losing or damaging them if I put them on my everyday bag so for now they'll chill in my keychain and Mondo pin bowl, but soon I'll find a better way to display them.

What? They're just fun pins they aren't supposed to represent their entire character
...I'm not asking them to "represent their entire character." I'm allowed to say I think it's weird to choose the symbols they chose.
