Project Update: A Message from Cecil: Unlocking the Portals! New Pin Colors!
WE'VE done it! Thanks to the extra funds we had after the journey, I was able to thoroughly investigate these wondrous portals.
It appears each of the Phoenixes is attuned to one of the portals here. I've been poring over the books within the library atop the mountain and I believe I'm beginning to understand how to unlock these portals for travel! It's truly astonishing! I had no idea where they lead...until about an hour ago.
I was preparing this amazing contraption with a helmet and shiny metal gloves to venture through the portal myself. But Cosmo, ever daring, decided to fly through. Suffice it to say, I was worried, but in just a matter of moments Cosmo was BACK through the portal with a friend!
Another Galaxy phoenix, with a very different color scheme. I'm astounded! This is stupendous! You can't imagine what this could mean! There's so much more to learn about where these portals go, and it seems like there are more phoenixes for us to save on the other side.
We need supplies to remain here in the mountains, so I'll need to ask for your help once more. I'll continue looking through the rest of these books to ensure we can unlock each of these portals and find out who awaits on the other side.
I also have an inkling that I might find a way to send myself to your world in these tomes. Which would be wonderful, I'm so excited for the opportunity to meet all of you and thank you personally for everything that you've done.

Project Update: Adult Phoenixes & More
Hello everyone!
We've been busy getting everything ordered from the manufacturer and we're still currently in line to have delivery of the phoenixes in early January!
Here are some sample images we've received from the factory! These versions aren't 100% done, but they're getting close!
While we begin manufacture of the baby phoenixes, Maru has started the designs for the adult versions of the Phoenixes! Since they were a big favorite, we're starting off with Cosmo the Galaxy Phoenix.
We've added a poll so you can pick your favorite design! We'll be preparing for the launch of the adult phoenixes during Pintopia in later January!

Project Update: Campaign Ended: Thank You Everyone!
It's been a whirlwind these last few days since the campaign came to a close. The Dark Phoenix was the last recolor to be unlocked. The others might show up in future campaigns.
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your incredible support and the trust you've placed in us to bring these phoenixes to life. Over the past few weeks, we've learned so much and had the pleasure of meeting many wonderful people here on Backerkit—from all of you to the Backerkit staff and our co-collaborators on Pintober.

We're truly excited about what's coming next, and we hope you are too. Cecil is taking a well-deserved nap right now, but he'll be back soon with his own message for you. In the meantime, we're preparing the surveys to go out, and you should see them soon!
We've also been working closely with a few manufacturers throughout the campaign and are happy to report that the molds are moving into production! We expect them to be completed within the next 7-10 days.
Keep an eye out for your surveys, and once again, thank you for your incredible support.
Stay Super,
Brian, Cici, Mark, & Mary
