Comm Badges
They’re small but powerful – Starfleet Comm badges. They not only decorate uniforms and show that the owner is an officer with the respective training, but they are also full of high-tech.
Once activated, these small devices enable the user to communicate with any other crew memeber who is also equipped with a smiliar badge. While the activation is done by a simple tap, everything else works through a highly sophisticated speech recognition system. Furthermore, these badged contain a personal ID beacon which can for example help to locate crew memebers in case of an emergency.
My replicas shown here are first generation castings from the original and are painted with authentic colors – unless you own a screen-used piece, this is as authentic as you can get. I acquired all of these items through eBay from the seller “JeepFX“.

Hi. Were any of the authentic prop TNG comm badges held on by pins rather than velcro?
Thanks

I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t think so.

Do you know which colors can be used if the ones from Krylon (which were used for the originals) are not available here in Europe?
Thanks

Sorry, I’m afraid not.
