Yes, but it is very slim (about 1-2mm).

Here is the post I was referring to: (post #14):

Judging by the 3rd picture here, I can’t see it fitting:

Mine looks exactly this one on the top left:

There’s also this quote from [Rapid Online](http://www.rapidonline.com/electronic-components/pimoroni-unicorn-hat-8x8-rgb-led-matrix-for-raspberry-pi-model-b-73-6042):

> The Pibow Coupe cases are ideal, the Pibow Ninja, Rainbow and Timber cases won’t do unfortunately. Whilst the Unicorn sits neatly on the B+, it won’t do that with the B but it’s possible to hack it to work, letting B owners enjoy the blinkiness.
