After a hard-fought battle, the Plesiosaurus swims away as the victor of the aquatic creature poll! There were too many amazing suggestions, you guys made it so hard to pass up so many critters!

This is all to say... to the Liopleurodon fan club, we hear you guys loud and clear. Judging by the aquatic poll runner-up being Kronosaurus, it feels perfectly fitting to put forth TWO winners, so welcome aboard, Liopleurodon! Apparently, this guy is magical, which frankly seems excessive for an aquatic apex predator, but we're not gonna be the ones to tell it anything otherwise.

The Liopleurodon and Plesiosaurus are both currently available to pledge for as pins while we work on finalizing their artwork, but enjoy the first passes in the meantime.

We've cobbled together some of our favorite pins between this campaign and the first Paleo pals, and need your guys' help in our final vote to decide which existing pin to make a fossilized variant of.

The style will be something akin to our mini fossil pin set, just full sized! And as usual, let us know if we're off the mark for what the fan-favorites are if you'd prefer an option you don't see!

17 whole days to go and you guys have completely cleared us of our stretch goals! WOW, truly wow!! No matter what, your guys' excitement for these projects and generosity continue to blow us out of the water.

But with about 3 weeks left, and want to give you all something to chew on. There's a few ideas we have up our sleeves for additional goals, but while we return to the drawing boards... what do you want to see?

We're open to any suggestions, be it subject matter or type merch! More acrylic or shaker charms? Sticker sets? Washi tape? Maybe you guys want to see one big beautiful Prototaxite or maybe some Cambrian weirdos? Anything flies!

In the meantime, pitch your vote...
Which one of our existing pins do you want to see FOSSILIZED?

Good evening, paleo pals! Just wanted to swing by with a quick update since we're coming up quick on our last poll, and had a few notable stretch goal unlocks to announce before we press further on...

We see how this is going, and frankly, are too excited to keep them from you all any longer... the Fossil Mini Pins are now available as a pledge tier and add-on for all backers!

The Archaeopteryx, Tyrannosaurus, and Ammonite fossil mini pins are dyed soft enamel and measure about 0.75" each. Like our Devonian mini pin set, these lil' fellas will run you $18 for the set of all three. You're well on your way to an entire museum with this little collection!

Additionally, our (non-fossilized) Archaeopteryx, the Jurassic Poll winner, has received some shiny new artwork! Ultimately we opted for this pose to better show off its bright and colorful parrot plumage, inspired by old school depictions of the creature.

Don't forget to pitch your vote for our aquatic animal stretch goal! The winner will be decided and made into a pin this Saturday, so share your thoughts now if you've got 'em.

Additionally, we've had requests to add the OG Paleo Pals pins to this campaign's lineup, and more likely than not we'll have those available in the survey as an add-on! If you absolutely cannot wait for some little dinos in your ranks, we have the first campaign's leftovers available on the Toadstown Etsy. We'll have the shakers up as soon as possible, too!

That's all for now, we'll catch you all as updates come!

Hello, Paleo Pals, returning and new! Once again, you all never fail to sweep us off our feet; Paleo Pals: Series 2 was totally funded within the first hour!! You guys are absolutely incredible, and we owe this amazing launch to you all!

But the journey is far from over... you folks have already crushed the first three stretch goals, and are swiftly approaching our fourth: The AQUATIC vote! We need your help to make the best pins possible, so make sure to cast your vote below.

We hear you all loud and clear - MORE feathers! Archaeopteryx has won the Jurassic vote by a wide margin, and we're hoping to make this pin a complimentary piece to the Microraptor already in the lineup.

Recent studies have found that Archaeopteryx likely bore a predominantly matte-black plumage. But, in an effort to help this guy stand out from the Microraptor pin, we'll be designing this guy with colorful plumage, harkening back to more "retro" Archaeopteryx reconstructions, with warm, parrot-inspired coloration.

Here's a couple sketches while we work on finalizing the colors, if you have a preference, feel free to shout it out:

Since it's the next in line for unlock, cast your vote for what aquatic all-timer makes it to the final lineup! We tried to include a diverse range of critters, from the mighty Kronosaurus, to some personal favorite Cambrian weirdos like the Tully Monster.

Vote below for what animal you want to see represent the prehistoric seas!
What's YOUR favorite aquatic beastie?

Thanks all for a phenomenal launch, we'll be back soon with updates as they come! While you're here, be sure to check out the other awesome creators contributing to Super League of Science, there's plenty more prehistoric campaigns to pledge to ;)

Howdy, Paleo Pals! We are thrilled to be back and part of Super League of Science '26 for the Paleo Pals sequel campaign, and boy are we excited to show you folks what we've been digging up.

Just like the first series, Paleo Pals: Series 2 hopes to celebrate the most iconic and strangest organisms of prehistory with dyed enamel pins, stickers, charms, and a few more secrets down the line! Additionally, this time around, we're cross-collaborating with KristKC's Tiny Dinos, so expect some cross-collab AND returning backer goodies.

But same as last time, we need YOUR guys' help to vote on the best of the best and fill out our community vote stretch goals! 🫵

We've got quite a few returning names from the first campaign's underdogs. If start noticing popular demand, or we blaze past our stretch goals, you'll have plenty chance to vote on certain animals we skip. So, be loud about your favorites! Rep the critters you wanna see repped!

Thank you so much for stopping by, we'll catch you soon at campaign launch! But for now...

Vote below for what animal you want to see represent the Jurassic Era!
What's YOUR favorite terrible lizard?
