Wanted to post a quick update, to let you know that unfortunately, shipping is taking a bit longer than anticipated. But the first batch has been sent as combined shipping with Natasja! If you've chosen "local pickup", you should've recieved a tracking code from Natasja.
I'm now slowly working my way through the rest of the packages in small batches. Due to annoying health reasons, I'm quite low energy and error prone right now so I need to take my time lest I send you the wrong pins 😅
This week I've been preparing another batch that will be sent out this weekend, and I think the last batch will be sent early August. You will recieve a tracking email once I send your pins out!
Ending this update on a positive note: A total of 384 individual Mustang pins have been adopted over the course of the campaign! After some currency conversion and roundup shenanigans, I've donated $450 to the Cloud foundation <3
The Manufacturer has shipped all the pins, and they are on their way to my friends house. I'm planning to pick them up next week when they should arrive ^^
In two weeks, I'm tabling at Dutch Comic Con, and after that I will be able to grade the pins and start shipping them out to you :)
Here are some of the manufacturer pictures I've been sent so far! I will share more once they arrive <3
The order has been placed with my manufacturer and they will begin the production soon ^^
Most of you have filled in your surveys, thank you! I've been able to order based on the 91% filled in surveys :D For those who haven't yet, you still have a week to fill out your pin requests and delivery method. After that I have to lock the surveys and I cannot guarantee I will be able to fulfill your pledge if you have not filled in the survey by then.
Please make sure to finish the survey even if your shipping gets combined ^^
Not only was the project a complete success, we also got pushed over the extra stretch goal in the last 10 minutes!
Thank you everyone who backed! The glitter horse will be available as a color choice and the mini pin will be added to pledges of over 3 pins <3 I'm so stoked!
I will get everything ready for the pledge surveys soon!
Little recap: Feb = survey prep & pledge collection
Mar = fill out your surveys (or else)
Apr - May = production
Jun = quality check+shipping!
Cross-collab pledges between Gods&Monsters and my campaing will be shipped together, we'll figure out how to best organise that on our side but you will likely only pay for half of shipping in both of our surveys. We'll keep you posted!
The mustang pin total dropped a little since I last mentioned it, but the total is now 258! I will do a final count after the surveys in case anyone decides to add extra mustang pins ^^ The mini pin freebie will also be added retroactively, so any pins added in the survey as addon will be counted towards your total, and will lead to a free foal pin if the total is 3 or more.
I wish you all a good evening and you will hear from me again soon!
