San Diego Comic-Con is full of challenges: Surviving Hall H lines, navigating the Exhibit Hall, collecting exclusives, and somehow getting more than four hours of sleep a night. The Con Rangers are here to make sure those accomplishments don’t go unnoticed, and they’ve been doing it for ten years (!).
For 2026, they’re returning to the convention to celebrate their tenth anniversary, and they’ll once again be offering attendees the chance to purchase merit badges to show off their convention victories.
[UPDATE July 16]
We mean no offense to Con Rangers previous daily San Diego Comic-Con exclusives, but this year’s batch is the best they’ve ever been. Each merit badge is limited to 250 pieces and first come, first served.

[UPDATE July 15]
In honor of their own 10th anniversary, Con Rangers are launching a SDCC exclusive Celebrated at the Con patch, the second of two gold metallic exclusives. This one is limited to 750 pieces, and honors anything you’ve ever celebrated at the con, even if it’s just that you ate a pretzel.
[UPDATE July 13]
The gold standard of San Diego Comic-Con is…HALL H.
This metallic Hall H Con Rangers Merit Badge is limited to 500 pieces on a gold foil backing and will be available at booth #1336
[UPDATE July 11]
We’ve got spirit, yes we do, we’ve got SDCC spirit, how ’bout you? Con Rangers will have a brand new Spirit Jersey in black with some very fetching palm trees. It will be available in sizes XS through 2XL, but in limited quantities of each, so hustle to booth #1336 if you need one.
[UPDATE July 7]
If you can’t wear your Con Rangers sash all the time then you need another great way to show off all your merit badges. How about a trusty Con Rangers Pennant? With six spots for your most prized badges, and measuring 7″ x 21″, you’ll want to march straight over to the canteen…er..I mean booth #1336 to pick on up, while they last.
[UPDATE July 2]
Losing your badge temporarily in the chaos of your hotel room, walking right into Hall H… All of those are huge convention moments. And you can celebrate all of them with three new open edition badges at Con Rangers Booth #1336, including:
- Walked Right In
- Repaired a Cosplay at the Con
- Wait, Where’s My Badge?
[UPDATE July 1]
Attendance levels on the show floor are reaching a critical level! You may not be able to control crowd movements at San Diego Comic-Con, but you can certainly pretend to with Con Rangers Crowd Danger Spinner Pin, which allows you to indicate the current crowd danger level. It also includes two pin posts, to ensure it stays on your gear.
[UPDATE June 24]
Did you score a Preview Night badge? That’s an accomplishment in itself! For the Con Rangers first merit badge of the year, you can pick up this Attended Preview Night Gold Metallic Variant (LE 300).
