First off, I wanted to give a formal THANK YOU to everyone these past 3 weeks, and for believing in the project! My body pretty much crashed on Thursday night, and I spent Friday recovering and catching up with other projects, hahaha. I didn't realize how both tense and excited I had been for days on end. Also, I wanted to give everyone a nice break from the constant posting on my end. 

Now that the week has started, I want to explain what the plan is moving forward:

As I mentioned previously, we unlocked all 6 pins and the Schnell pin! For those who ordered the 6-pin set will get Schnell for free. Anyone else can either choose or add him in the final process. 

At the tail end of the campaign, someone removed their pledge, and we lost the stretch goal for the lore booklet. But don't worry! I'm already going to get it printed either way, but without the stretch goal, I couldn't promise to add it for free on the set. The 60-page lore booklet will be available as an add-on if you wish to include it in your final order. 

Tomorrow, CNY (Chinese New Year/Lunar New Year) begins, meaning that manufacturers won't be available for a week or so. Despite that, I encourage backers to look forward to future updates since I'll be finalizing the designs this week and would love for everyone's votes and input. I want backers to feel like they are a part of the final say, and I'm hoping to start sending order updates by the end of the month.

The final versions won't be too different from these prototype pins, by the way. It's mostly approving tiny details like extra glow-in-the-dark spots. 

If there are any items you'd like to add to your order, the final surveys will go live next week!  So, don't worry if you missed something and wanted to add it later, you still have time!

There's a secret fifth update, but I don't want to make a promise before confirming it, but look forward to it! Heheh!

As is, I hope this answers any questions you may have had and at least set a rough roadmap for the month of February. If you have any other questions, feel free to let me know in the comments!
  
Thanks again for everything! And keep an eye out for future updates!
