I just scored a set of gold academy wings in a lot on eBay but it has "Space Academy" molded into the wings, one word per side.

I was surprised at how well-made this one is. The normal camp wings they give out today I think are made of pewter and bend very easily. These are made of something much sturdier than that and are well plated with something.

This weekend I checked with my nephew who went to Space Camp in Florida with me. The only time I went there. He is 23 now. He still has his flight suit and wings and they are the wings with the orbiter over the shield in the center. So, the Florida Space camp gave them to regular campers. (Parent/Child Program) Not just to counselors.

The HAB one is a gotta-have, the rest, not so much for the die-hard SC fan...

I like the Hab pin too. When I get mine, I'm going to see about scratching off the aquanaut logo and printing a clear decal of the classic shuttle logo to go on there.

Just got mine yesterday (thanks to Steve who happened to see these pins in the gift shop originally the other day). The HAB one is pretty big and has two pins to hold it into place. I wouldn't imagine too many people putting a pin this big on a Camp lanyard.

Good luck with that, it might be more work that you might be ready for. I have reasonable model building skills, but after looking this pin over, I've decided I can live with 'Gumby' on it.
Still no camp logo pins with the Gumby/Aquanaut version of the new logo, though. How odd.
