Fan of Warhammer 40,000 seeks the last piece of his collection, stranger helps him from the other side of the world

Many people enjoy collecting items or merchandise from a beloved hobby. A fan of Warhammer 40,000 proudly shows his nearly complete collection to the Reddit community until a stranger happens to have the missing piece and helps him from the other side of the world.

What kind of collection is it? Reddit user Femboy_paint3d proudly displays his nearly complete collection of pins from Warhammer 40,000 in early June 2026. These are badges of Space Marines from various legions across the Imperium of Man.

Unfortunately, the user is missing exactly one pin to complete his collection. But the internet is known to be vast, and another fan asks him about the missing pin: A Space Marine of the Blood Angels, which was available in 2021 for users who already had a subscription to the Warhammer app and upgraded to an annual subscription (facebook.com).

Stranger from the other side of the world happens to own exactly this pin

How did the pin come to the collector? After a few messages in the comments of the post, the stranger asks the collector for his address so he can send the pin.

About 10 days later, another post in the Warhammer subreddit was published, where Femboy_paint3d proudly shows the last pin of his collection. He writes the following: “SignalBackground1230 sent it to me. He is one of the best people this community can have. Thank you again!”

The top comment is, of course, from the stranger who saved the collection personally: “You’re welcome! It’s nice to spread a little joy from the other side of the world.” However, the post does not clarify which two countries the two fans are from – only that they live very far apart.

Recently, Games Workshop introduced new Space Marines. They are carriers of the most advanced armor of humanity, but it could not survive the Horus Heresy. The community preferred to discuss a sixth finger on a hand, but Games Workshop has already clarified the mistake: Games Workshop clarifies: Space Marines are not created with abhorrent intelligence in Warhammer 40,000
