Project Update: A Legendary Delivery
Hello Backerkit!
Just updating to let you all know that the pins for this campaign arrived at our doorstep yesterday and are in the process of being counted today. Given this, unless any of the pins are missing or damaged from this shipment, it is likely that fulfillment for this project will begin in a few days!
What to Expect
Our Strategy
The strategy that Tokii and I use during our fulfillment process is to start with the orders that include large items first starting with the heaviest by weight. We do this not because they take precedence over small packages but because they can take hours to fulfill and we prefer to knock them out while we have the most energy (We used to start with the smallest packages first, and found that that strategy seemed to wear more heavily on us. Ultimately leading to slower fulfillment).
New Changes
One of the new improvements that has been done for us is that we asked our manufacturer to pin the pins to their backing cards ahead of time. At first we were worried that the cards may be damaged through shipping, but we were delighted to find that our manufacturer was very thoughtful with their packing and with a first glance none of the cards arrived damaged - they even put them in nylon baggies! All of that is to say that fulfillment will likely be significantly shorter because of this change.
Future Updates
Fullfilled orders will be shipped out about every weekend or every other weekend depending on workload. At which point I will send an update of our status that includes our completed progress measured in both quantity and weight. If we encounter any significant setbacks you will also get an update notifying you of its cause and effects.
TL;DR
As a summary, We fulfill our biggest orders first, and ship orders out in batches on the weekends every one to two weeks. You can expect status updates on shipping days and updates for any significant setbacks we come across. You can also tentatively expect a faster fulfillment than what you're used to from us as we've made improvements to our workflow.

Thank you guys for your continued generosity and interest in our campaigns, we've been touched in the ways people find love for our work and will strive to continue giving our all in future projects because of it.
Until next time,
stay adventurous,
- Jacob & Tokii
