Hey Everyone,

Just a huge thanks from us to you for making this campaign twice as large as anything we've done in the past. We're excited to start production on the pins and shipping them to you as soon as we can.

We'll be keeping you up to date, but here's a rough outline of how things will progress.

Pledge: Backerkit should have already charged your cards for the initial pledge amount, but be on the lookout for any failed charges and errors. We'll try to reach out to help where we can. 

Surveys: These will go out towards the end of the month. It should be about 3-4 weeks as we want to give Raymond time to finalize some of the stretch goal designs. We'll share them in groups as he finalizes the last few. Once the surveys go out, you'll have a few weeks to make your selections.

Manufacturing: We're aiming to begin manufacturing the pins in August once surveys are complete and that process usually only takes a month to complete. That being said, we've never had such a large or complicated order, which is why the campaign page says we won't ship until December. We're going to try our best to beat that timeline though.

Shipping: We'll have a good shipping estimate before the surveys go out, but we won't charge shipping until the pins arrive at our door safely. You'll be able to see this when you complete the survey.

Raccoon Stretch Goal: We are pretty close to unlocking the Raccoon and we MIGHT have a way for us to still unlock it. We're going to check if its a possibility and if it is, we'll make sure its apparent in the pledge manager. 

Thank you again for the support! 🎉
