I had the surveys set to close by the end of the week, and there are still a few people who have not done the surveys, so just a reminder to please fill out the survey as soon as you're able to if you haven't. If you don't fill it out by the time I order things some items may be more limited. I do have to close the surveys regardless and charge for the add-ons before ordering. At the moment the cactus cat has been unlocked out of the additional stretch goals, and there's still a chance for the other stretch goals until the surveys and pre-order store close. 

Hi, just a reminder for everyone who hasn't filled out their survey yet to please check your emails for the links for that. If you can't find it, please contact me or backerkit.

And it looks like at least the cactus cat will be unlocked! There's some others that are also getting some orders in, so please share the pre-order shop link with anyone you think might be interested in that. And if anyone seeing this update wanted a pin and missed the campaign, check here https://cryptidcarousel2.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders for the pre-orders, that will be open for a bit longer still. I will close it before I order all the pins, after surveys are all locked.

Surveys are now being sent out! I have sent out the test surveys, so please respond to the survey if you get an email about it. Assuming there's no issues popping up, all the other surveys will be sent out in a day or so. After choosing your pins from the unlocked designs you'll also be able to add any add-ons including the locked pins as stretch goals. Reminder that these stretch goals will only unlock if they get enough orders, and you will not be charged for them if they don't unlock.

 Thank you to everyone who backed during the campaign. This update is to let everyone know right now the pre-order store is open, so anyone who who still wants to back has some time. I'll close the pre-order store around the time surveys are all done.  Surveys will be sent out after all the payments from the campaign gets sorted and all that.  

I have added the locked pins as stretch goal preorders in the preorder store, and you can also choose those as add ons during your survey. Which means if enough of any of those pins is ordered it will also be unlocked. If they don't hit that stretch goal, they'll be gone and you won't be charged for it. I'll be using add-on money from the surveys as well so if any of the locked pins get close to their stretch goal I might be able to make them even if they don't quite get there. 

I'll send another update once I get surveys starting to be  sent out, probably next week some time.

There's about 3 days left of pintopia now. If you want to back and help unlock more pins now is the time, the price of the pins during this campaign is discounted from the amount they will be on my etsy afterwards. The fresno nightcrawler pin is close to unlocking still! Just 2 backers getting 5 pins would be nearly there! Would love to unlock even more in these last few days too. Anyone wanting multiple pins, apart from discounted cost of pins you do also get a free sticker at 5 or more pins!

Also I will be opening a preorder shop after the campaign that will run up until surveys are closed.  Funds from that as well as from any additional add-ons during the surveys will also be used to unlock more pins if possible.
