Home Stretch

Hello everyone!
I know its been a while, July-September were insanely busy, I've never had such a packed schedule for shows so I really underestimated how much it would take out of me. I'm in the home stretch for backing pins, feels like all I've been doing since getting back. I only have five more designs to finish while I'm writing this and I'll start getting pins shipped out Sunday-Monday. Backerkit should have sent out emails reminding everyone to double check their addresses and they will be locked in 2 days. After their locked I can start shipping! I do apologize this has taken far longer than I'd estimated. Since the pins took an extra month and there was also a delay with the backing cards, I got pushed back to my con season during which I couldn't work on the project at all for two months since I was on the road.
For anyone who backed the Kickstarter exclusive through Backerkit, we unfortunately didn't hit our goal :( The listing never deleted properly so you were still charged for the pin, please reach out to me if you want to swap the pin out for another design, can be anything in my pin shop or I can issue you a refund.
Thank you everyone for your patience, you'll be getting an email with a week with your tracking number!

Waiting on bavking cards

Hello everyone!!! I’m back from my exhausting 6 back to back shows and ready to get to unbagging, grading, boarding and shipping your pins. There was some miscommunication between me and my backing card printer so I am still waiting on those but should get them in next week, perfect timing since I still have to grade them all. My goal is to start shipping out pins end of next week to the first week of September but it’s very reliant on when the backing cards get here. I’ll let you all know as soon as I get the cards and I’ll be locking addresses then starting the shipping process.

Hey everyone! I know it’s been a hot second but I finally have a real update, and with pictures! The pins are here!!! This is great but also, stressing. I was hoping to have them last month so I could get them out this week but things happen. I’m in at 6 shows in a row streak between two weekends ago and August. That means I won’t be home more than a day or two in between travel and for two of the shows, I won’t be coming back at all. What does this mean for you? Not much other than I won’t be able to start sending out pins until August, I’ll be grading pins at and in between shows to get a head start so I can start shipping when I can. If you’ll be at any of the following shows, let me know and I can have them available for pickup. Galaxycon Raleigh, Oklahoma Comic con, Matsuricon, and Anime Town Louisiana. I will be selling limited stock at the show too so if you missed anything you can get them there. And now pictures!!! The pins look great! It’s always amazing to see them in person versus a mock-up and I can’t wait to get these guys out to y’all!

Hey everyone,
Figured I'm overdue for an update. Unfortunately there isn't much to say right now. We are still in the production phase which is always the longest phase but my manu assures me that we are on track for a July delivery at the latest. I'm hoping that is true so fingers crossed. My manu does tend to be on the slower side, but their quality and consistency is top notch. I wish I could share more, but that's all I've got for now. I'll be sure to share any photos my manu shares if they send me any!
TIll next time,
Rae

Hello Everyone!
Surveys have been sent! Please check you mail from Backerkit with a survey to fill out so I know which pins from the campain you'd like. You can also still add on additional pins and charms from my mythology series as well! Thank you to everyone who supported this project, if you have any friends or family who missed the campaign and would still like to back it, the Backerkit preorder shop is also open!
Thank you again!
