the "my favorite republic is falling apart" bit killed me XD Comrade that was priceless

[@Taversia]

This collection is SO cool. And I am DECEASED over that catboy pin lmaooo.. 💀

[@Elijah_Sundress]

Привет, я из России(войну на Украине не поддерживаю, потому что эта война империалистическая). Очень приятно знать, что есть живущие на западе товарищи, которые интересуются нашим Советским прошлым. Передаю вам пролетарский интернациональный привет! P. S. На ваш канал подписался и посмотрел все ваши 60 роликов. Было очень интересно!

[@awkwardpenguinftw]

Its so cute, they look so loved and well taken care of in a case. Im from eastern EU. In highschool i got a few pins from an antique store because they had happy slogans like "keep moving ahead" (in the science/industry domains and such) -not actually in english if course, it sounded so optimistic. Hope they wont disappear until i start collecting some, when i find the money and time. Love 😙

[@johns9579]

A "Lady Izdihar" pin would be so cool!

[@patootien]

It's so surreal seeing someone from the "west" being so invested in our history lol I don't think we have people as passionate about it as you are here in the post-soviet spaces.

[@dolunaykocabag2344]

I dont knowwhat brought me to your channel! But binge watching your content is how i want to spend my friday evening.

[@JK-ml2rc]

My soviet dad used to collect pins/badges when he was young . So thanks to him we have two hand towels filled with soviet pins 🥰 And some military medals from my grandpa (dads dad)

[@CJCWS]

I love how you have the smile of a child when speaking about your collection:)

[@LadyIzdihar]

It genuinely makes me happy!

[@CJCWS]

I wear my Donbass pin every day. I know what you mean.

[@toffee3944]

A note on the Yugoslavian pin (Specifically it's to an officer's cap of the JNA.) the specific style of twist on (I think that's what it's called I can't remember) continued to be replicated onto a vast majority of hat badges and insignia into the Yugoslav wars, I have multiple Croatian cap badges and due to it and the hats themselves not being very thick to accommodate the badge you always feel like you're being stabbed in the head when you put one on. Also great video, love the channel!

[@LadyIzdihar]

Thanks for the extra info!

[@fasology]

I love your content. I don’t agree politically but I love it. I love the flags. I’m very interested in Soviet culture and architecture and you’re basically the only channel that actually cure it. Thank you. Ps nice Moldova SSR flag in the background.

[@ajaykrishnakumar4141]

I am so happy that you have a video on this. I have like a box of 1000s. Miss seeing you on tic tok

[@Richard-vv9re]

They look amazing all put together comrade, you really inspire me to begin my own collection but maybe not just pins but military badges too but yeah they look awesome, Lenin would be proud of you.

[@maya07_11]

the Monster can in the background together with all that old stuff gives off a weird vibe but in a good way lol💀

[@usa-1129]

I still wanna know how you get them so perfect on your lapels 😳🧐 I have a Gagarin pin id like to wear once a while but it looks fragile and I'm afraid to break it 😬

[@Ben_Ilic_56]

My favourite video yet I think; probably because I share your love of pins. I wear mine as well and they live in a Georgian tea tin but I would love a display case like yours. As well as Soviet pins I have lots of Yugoslavia badges, a couple from Hungary, DDR, and Bulgaria. I like the Moscow News pin and I have bought the big one with all the flags a few days ago.

I love finding a banger lady izdahar vid and you know it’s going to be good from just the thumbnail.

Someone should make a compilation of every time a monster energy drink ends up in one of your videos lol

[@andrejmucic5003]

My American employer gave me an UDARNIK pin! Very cool.

[@OttomanLebanon]

I just recently bought a Soviet Naval Flag! I love it!

[@ajaykrishnakumar4141]

Thank you helped me identify my baby Lenin pin.

[@slipknotboy555]

Looks great! I agree, one of those Lenin + Stalin pieces would be awesome to put right above it (or wherever)

[@CanadianMemorials]

love it

[@rayman17578]

I really like the Mao one! Currently the only ones I have are basic the Coat of Arms hat badge two actually and then I have the same Hammer and Sickle Red Star hat badge you have

[@valentinbarinov]

You found a Yugoslavian flag at goodwill!? That's incredible lol

[@ronacria5610]

Wow what an awesome flag!

[@vibrantlightwc]

Do you know if they made any pins for the Intercosmos space program? That would be cool to see.

[@se7enei8htnin97]

Any particular reason why Moldovan SSR is your favorite? Just curious, great video

[@grundgesetzart.1463]

Hey cool collection. I dont really collect those, but still have two cases full of different pins, from all over the former Eastern Bloc. These pins with the coat of arms of the USSR republics, how are they called, please? I'd like to get those, if possible and available somewhere. Cheers and all the best

[@victorrosa01]

Very nice, do you have any Soviet watches? They are unique and distinctive

[@LadyIzdihar]

Omg no and they are the bane of my existence when searching for other collectible items, Soviet watches saturate all search results of Soviet goods 😭

[@victorrosa01]

@@LadyIzdihar Seriously didn't know that, sorry 😁

[@LadyIzdihar]

Lol it's no problem. I'm just not particularly interested and find myself having this shift through them a lot

[@victorrosa01]

@@LadyIzdihar Yes, watches in general are very time consuming 😅

1:48 ? 9:54 That explains (Cat). I lost my fake pin some months ago. Well, it was good in the while.

Christ, I'd love my room to look like that lol, btw do you know where would be the best place to find one of those big silk banners that you have and a Lenin bust?

[@user-ey8ug8wy4z]

Omg whqt a beautiful devochka and whqt q beautiful collection . I collect soviet stqmps . I have the largest stamp collection this side of the Mississippi. I'm from California by the way. Greetings comrade. I also have a few pins and acquired two hammer and sickel stars with a rod in the back , which i dont know how to apply. I believe they're meant to be put on your hat. Please help if you hqve time .

[@DavidNunezPNW]

How do you know if a Soviet pin is fake? I just bought the Little Octoberist, Young Pinner, Komsomol badge set and I think one is a fake

[@LadyIzdihar]

It’s usually obvious that the material is different, or maybe it feels too light. Granted pins from the 80s, real pins can also be really low quality. But it’s more of a tangible difference, and if you’ve felt a real one of the same kind you’d definitely know.

[@pedrokantor7972]

pins where mostly made in huge quantities so it's not really common to have fake ones, if we start talking about medals, badges and orders it's really diffirent tho

[@DavidNunezPNW]

@@LadyIzdihar thanks for the tip I'll seek out others and see if I can tell the difference

[@Cobrazerogaming]

Masallah 😍

Hi, i have a couple of soviet pins (some for hats) and they have a symbol on the back. It looks like a peace sign (Y upside down with 3 legs). Is it fake? What does it mean?

its the mercedes logo

@Kosename In the USSR man always complimented women, gave flowers, let them through the door first, and so on. I guarantee because I was born there.

[@fun_ghoul]

Sorry to have bounced from the livestream the other night. Pretty verklempt thinking about the fire. No loss of life or my own belongings, but the guy whose A/C lit up now lives in a garage at his work, and his elderly roommate was forced into a retirement -home- prison. It took almost two minutes for me to get the old fella out of there, and I worry about what the smoke inhalation did to him...I still remember the soot all around his mouth from breathing that shit. Worse, I knew the A/C was poorly installed -- I could hear the fan chopping water for days -- but didn't say anything, "reasoning" that it would just cost them more in hydro or shorten the life of the A/C. In short, I would have burned all my stuff on a pyre if I could have prevented this outcome. Sorry to be a downer.

[@John-vu5qm]

What do these pins mean to you personally

[@Recondite101]

No cannabis pin? 😞

[@zeekwolfe6251]

At a yard sale I recently purchased a bag of military medals, WW2, made in Poland and Bulgaria in the 1940s. In the bag also were a number Soviet little lapel pins marked 15k showing the bust of Lenin. I know the evil Lenin brought to Russia. I sold the pins to a gold smith for the metal value. He added them to his ceramic melt dish. I watched him do this.

[@HueyAdones]

Can I have your pin star

i’ve always thought collecting this stuff was so cool! but everyone’s gonna think i’m the ~weird commie~ which like TRUE but lol

... but if we don't like Hungarians for what "they" did decades maybe centuries ago... shouldn't we also not like " 'mericans" /United-Statesians and their closest allies in all kinds of crimes : Canadians etc. etc. etc. ... for what "they" did even just yesterday ... ... ... regardless of anyone's individual merits etc. ... ... or maybe we should forgive the more innocent looking Hungarian babies for their ancestors crimes etc. ... ... ... anyway... are you sure it was Hungarian socialists specifically who did those crimes you mentioned?
