Project Update: Jupiter Is the Largest Planet, Right?

So these arrived today as expected. But when looking at the full set…



I am asking for Jupiter reprints. But what do I do about all the others? Probably only about 15% of backers did not order the Jupiter pin. Do I wait to ship everything? Would some of you mind the smaller one to get them faster?

Ugh. It is always something. Last campaign I ordered two pins too large and one too small.

What is crazy is I made this doc to ensure nothing went wrong this time.

Project Update: Where are we in terms of the high seas?

Our tracking indicates that our project should arrive at the port by the 15th. However, they informed me that the customs clearance process can take anywhere from 5 to 10 days. Consequently, we may need to start shipping out the rewards after the 25th.

Apologies for the delay. The proofing process took significantly longer than anticipated, and the resulting tariff forced us to opt for the slower shipping option. Normally, the package would have arrived a week ago.

Project Update: What A Proof Looks Like

Here is a proof for the Saturn pin. What is wrong with this? Do you see it?



Yeah. The rings are missing.



So this is what it looks like corrected. Every pin has every color selected via Pantone Coated colors. From videos I have seen with pins, it looks like a person actually has an ink injector and fills every channel of every pin with the correct color. Nuts. These things should cost $50 each for that kind of tedious handwork. 

We have sent a notice that your cards will be charged in 48 hours. So if you wish to revise your rewards, you can do so by then, and your order will be locked in.

Project Update: So many delays

Just an update on progress.

After a long delay from the Chinese New Year, it took a bit to get proofs. 

However, the real delay is going to be shipping. Thanks to several brilliant decisions by our president, shipping from there to here has increased 4x. This thanks to tariffs, retaliative fees, and on top of all that — fuel in the region has exploded in cost.

Now the only option that allows us to match the budget that was planned for is the slow boat one. This means once all the proofs are approved — it will take at least a month for them to arrive. Contrast to what used to be 5 days transit.

Sorry for the blackout on info. We will post some of the pdf proofs to show how they plan to arrange the plating.
