1️⃣ Product Description 

This 26.2 finisher medal is a full tribute to the city that never sleeps, engineered as a layered three-dimensional composition rather than a flat disc. The body is die-cast in eco-friendly zinc alloy with an irregular silhouette: the Caesars-style facade and the tall blue glass tower on the left, the red-and-blue striped hot air balloon at the upper right and the neon bulb ring all extend beyond the circular edge, so the medal reads as a sculpted skyline instead of a badge. The background is the technical highlight — a pink, blue and violet glitter powder coat that shifts colour as the runner tilts the medal, mimicking the desert night sky above the Strip. Across the centre runs the signature "Fabulous Las Vegas" archway with its yellow neon bulb relief, and twin white dice sit beside it, hand-filled in soft enamel down to the black pips. A silver 3D relief sprinter is modelled mid-stride along the base path, with a bold rose-pink 26.2 carrying a polished silver outline at the bottom. Every surface is bright-nickel plated for a mirror finish, then sealed with an anti-tarnish lacquer, and the medal hangs from a 1.5 inch full-colour sublimated ribbon printed with a cosmic aurora gradient and repeating dice motif.

2️⃣ Company Strength 

Vistarts runs a 10,000 sqm manufacturing campus in Shenzhen with five dedicated production lines covering die-casting, polishing, plating, enamel filling and assembly under one roof. More than 150 craftspeople and a 20-strong design studio support annual capacity above 600,000 medals, with single orders routinely scaled to 50,000 pieces. The glitter powder coating station, the dual-tone plating baths and the ribbon sublimation press are all in-house, which means no third-party bottleneck between your approved mockup and your shipping date. Every Las Vegas medal passes a three-gate inspection — raw casting, post-enamel colour verification and a 100% finished-goods check — with each batch photographed and archived against your PO number.

3️⃣ Why Choose Us 

We are not a trading desk. Fifteen years of award manufacturing have made us the certified medal partner for Olympic Games and World Cup programmes, and our plant has been audited by Disney and Universal Studios for social compliance and product safety. That audit trail matters when your race is sponsored by a national brand or staged on municipal land: we supply RoHS, SGS, EN71 and California Prop 65 documentation as standard, and we work in recycled zinc alloy and RPET ribbon by request for sustainability-reporting events. Where we genuinely differ is complexity — glitter gradients, elements that break the silhouette, dual-tone plating and independent ribbon artwork are our daily work, and we guarantee the production piece against your approved mockup.

FAQ ：

Q1: What is the minimum order quantity for a custom Las Vegas marathon medal? 

A: Our standard MOQ is 100 pieces per design. Because the tooling for the neon sign, the dice and the skyline is cut once and reused, you can order 100 for a first-year charity run and reorder 5,000 the following season at the same unit tooling cost.

Q2: Can you reproduce the glitter night-sky effect on our own artwork instead of the desert theme? 

A: Yes. The glitter layer is a powder coat applied to the recessed background of the die-cast body, so it can carry any palette — ocean blue for a coastal race, forest green for a trail series, or your sponsor's brand colours. We produce a physical glitter sample card before mass production so you approve the exact sparkle density.

Q3: We are not in Las Vegas. Can the building, dice and balloon be replaced with our own city landmarks? 

A: Absolutely. The whole composition is built from separate CNC-cut tooling sections. Send us photos or line art of your landmark, mascot or signature object and our 20-person design studio will rebuild the layer stack around it, then issue a 3D mockup for your sign-off before any steel is cut.

Q4: How long does production take, and can you guarantee delivery before our race date?

 A: Sampling takes 7-10 days including the glitter sample card, and mass production runs 15-20 days after mockup approval. Once we accept your race date we book the production slot at deposit and ship by DDP air freight so cartons arrive at your venue 3-5 days ahead of the first wave. Rush schedules down to 12 working days are available on request.

Q5: Are the medals safe and compliant for US and EU race events? 

A: Yes. Every order ships with RoHS, SGS and EN71 test reports, California Prop 65 compliance statements and a lead-free nickel-release declaration. We fit safety breakaway clasps as standard on running ribbons so the medal releases under load, and our Disney and Universal Studios audits cover social compliance as well as materials.

Q6: Can we print our own ribbon design rather than the aurora pattern? 

A: Yes. Ribbons are woven or satin polyester and printed by full-colour dye sublimation, which means unlimited colours, photographic gradients and repeating patterns at no extra colour cost. Logos, sponsor marks, finish times, dice motifs or a full cityscape repeat are all possible; we also offer V-neck, double-layer and custom-width options.

Q7: How heavy and how thick is the medal? Will it feel substantial to finishers? 

A: The standard body is 4.0 mm thick with silver 3D relief, giving a finished weight of roughly 80-95 g at 80 mm across — heavy enough to feel like a serious achievement medal in the hand without pulling on the neck during a post-race walk. We can go to 5.0 mm or add a raised rim for a heavier premium feel if your budget allows.

Q8: Do we get to see the design before paying for production?

 A: Yes, and it costs you nothing. Send your logo and brief and our design studio returns a free 3D digital mockup within 24 hours, with a full quotation including tooling, ribbon and DDP freight. No tooling charge is raised until you formally approve that mockup, and we will revise it until the artwork is exactly right.
