All the previous designs are expected to be completed in production from August 6th to 8th, and you are expected to receive the goods around August 13th to 15th.
So… I’m still considering moving forward with the DINO SPACE PROGRAM pin. We’ve made a few sales on the pre-order one page and are about $50 away from the goal. Honestly, I think we’re close enough.
The real issue now is timing. We’re several weeks out, so anyone who adds this pin to their reward will face a shipping delay while we wait for them to arrive—probably not until September. So I’m debating if it’s worth pushing forward and delaying orders, or if we should hold off for now to avoid making backers wait.

So this just landed in my inbox last night. With hours to go the prototypes for the other five pins. I did replace the backgrounds so they are prettier.
Remember Chicxulub
Fossilized But Not Forgotten
Defend Earth
Asteroids:1 Dinos:0
Stay Unextinct
The only requests I am making are the blues are too dark in the DEFEND EARTH pin, and the banner for STAY UNEXTINCT is too dark as well.
Apart from that, I think these will be approved and should arrive here in about three weeks. If any stretch goals are made, that will delay shipment on orders with that pin (DINO SPACE PROGRAM). If the shirt stretch is met, that will not add more time as I can get those in two weeks.
We setup the pre-order ONE-PAGE for anyone who wants to grab a set of pins 15% off without all the crowd-funding account setups, surveys, etc. This page lets you buy a full set and optionally toss in the Dinosaur Space Program stretch goal as a add-on.
The One-Page Check-Out
The stretch goal hasn’t yet been met, but is only about $400 away and we expect the one-page to get us over that line pretty easily (see sketch in the lower left of the image). Look for that completed design early next week.
My 10-year-old’s campaign is also still going for another week. It has been funded, but we would love for additional backers to support this budding illustrator/designer. We are going to post a video this week showing her drawing another project.
Our next campaign will be Giant Leaps in Space, a pin set celebrating crewed missions like Apollo, ISS, Vostok and others. Originally a series of 36x18 posters created in 2017, we will finally produce some pins based on these original designs.
We're fully funded — but we're just 19% away from unlocking our first stretch goal: a new enamel pin design for the Dinosaur Space Program (see rough below). In our last campaign, both stretch goals were hit in the final 48 hours, so there's still time to make it happen!
Sketch for Dinosaur Space Program Pin
Now Fossilized But Not Forgotten is already a confirmed pin — but if we hit our next stretch goal ($5,500), we'll unlock it as a t-shirt too! This has really become the thing I personally want produced the most. I think it makes a great tee… kind of looks like a HARLEY biker tee!

Hey everyone. The first part of that update was for my Spacecraft Series of pins. I posted to the wrong project! So please ignore the shipping message. This campaign has not even ended yet!
