The Companion Cube Pin, also known as the Portal 2 Pin, is a promotional miscellaneous item for all classes. It depicts a team colored portal and a Weighted Companion Cube floating within, from the eponymous Valve game Template:W.
The Companion Cube Pin was given to those who pre-purchased Portal 2 before April 19 and awarded from April 15, 2011 to April 19, 2011.[1] Pins were originally awarded to players with the Unique quality, but were later changed to have the Genuine quality shortly after the release of Portal 2.
