Could you give me more info about these OW items?

Recently I traded for an Abe’s exodus bottle opener and Abe’s exodus button. (See pic’)

Could you give me some info about these, like where they were given out, and like a rarity scale?

Thanks,

These are promotional knick‐knacks handed out at events like E3 and the Game Developers Conference—​insider events, mostly. They’re quite cute, but almost completely unavailable beyond eBay.

To most fans, they are rare, and they might end up paying far too much for them. After several years of collecting Oddworld merchandise, I still don’t have the AE bottle opener, and I’ve never seen the badge before. You have to be careful, some items seem pretty suspicious, and were never made by Oddworld Inhabitants.

I'd love that bottle opener so bad. Where'd you trade for them?

I think the button is legit, because they were both from the same guy (some guy in Montana) who traded them to a local guy I know and for the amount he traded it wouldn’t have been worth making the button.

They’re not for sale but if any of you ever find any Beyond Good & Evil Promotional stuff (that I don’t already have) I’d trade them in an instant.

Yes, don't worry, the button is official. I, too, have one. Of course the opener is official.

Oh, and just so it’s clear it’s the Ubisoft game I’m into, I couldn’t care less about the Porn Orphan’s album or Nietzsce’s philosophy by the same name.
Deus Ex stuff would be cool too.
