This collection features a large aquarium pin as the centerpiece, surrounded by 2" fish-bag pins each packed with our favs. Each piece uses lenticular motion to bring the scene to life shifting as you move, just like peeking into a real aquarium!
The ocean has always felt like a whole different world. Calm, mysterious, and full of wonder.
Growing up, I loved aquariums. I could spend hours staring into tanks, completely mesmerized by the colors, movement, and personality of every creature inside. And when I later fell in love with Pokem.... errr I mean creature collecting games, it was no surprise that I was always drawn to the water themed pocket monsters the most.
That lifelong obsession is what inspired Poke Aquariums, a lenticular enamel pin project celebrating aquatic life and the pocket monsters that feel like they belong beneath the surface.
This journey began with my dream centerpiece, a jumbo aquarium pin designed like a miniature exhibit with lenticular motion that brings the scene to life. From there, the collection expanded into something even bigger. The Fishbag Pins are a separate set of standalone pins featuring multiple water pocket monsters inside a classic fishbag concept, each one like a tiny portable aquarium moment.
Poke-Aquariums will dive into this project with an initial goal of 6 different designed enamel pins.
ALL pins feature:
Lenticular Frame effect (For the ones that are visibly moving)
2 pin posts
Black metal plating
Backstamp (Goopy Goblins) and (Goopy Goblins X Goompaloo) - Jumbo Only -
Hard enamel
Goopy Note: The designs are mock ups and there may be some differences and changes to color due to the manufacturing process I will make a good effort to post updates and make any major changes clear. But as of now it should look pretty close to what in theory examples and designs above.

[Poke-Aquariums] is a merch project by Goopy Goblins, a Midwestern artist with a love for aquariums and our beloved nostalgia pocket monsters.
Iâve been a digital artist for years, focusing heavily on fan art and illustration, and I work professionally in ZBrush and 3D modeling for brands like Netflix, McDonaldâs, Bumble, and Motherâs Cookies.
But nothing beats creating merch for the IPs I genuinely love!!!!!! As a Poke-slop enjoyer its my main special interest along with Hatsune Miku and Chainsaw man!
The event's collection of independent crowdfunding campaigns highlights and celebrates pop culture and nerdiness in all forms! The intent is ideally for this whole campaign to be enamel pin related for the incentives.
Each creator runs their own campaign, but we launch together, offering collaborative incentives, cross-promoting to raise more funds, gain more fans, and amplify each otherâs success.
