Hello everybody! Just posting a pre-Christmas update. We have turtles! They're here!
Also, I've officially put in our turtle conservation donation. It came out to a shiny $139 which is RM 622 in Malaysia. Congratulations everyone and thanks for your support.
Up next is shipping which should begin Monday of next week. I don't expect shipping to take too long so the vast majority of you guys can expect a package well before Christmas. Also, I'm going to lock addresses right after this update goes out. Happy Wednesday everyone!

Hey everybody! Here's a quick update for you all just before the Halloween weekend. Over 90% of the surveys have been filled out and all the pins have been ordered. I'll be locking orders early next week so if anybody wanted to get in on the pre-order store now's the time to do it. After orders are locked and cards have been charged I'll put in our turtle conservation donation. So far we're in the ballpark of $140. Woot woot! Happy Halloween everyone.
Smoke test surveys are out!

All the smoke test surveys are sent out and in 5% of y'all's inboxes. The purpose of the smoke test is to see if everything works properly. If you're one of the lucky few let us know if there are any issues or problems with your order.
The rest of the surveys are expected to go out Saturday evening. Keep an eye on your inbox and enjoy the Turtle Cities survey. I've included pin from a past campaign as well as some fan pins I've been working on over the past few months.
Also, we love your feedback. If you get the survey and imagination starts building on what amazing things I and Kubo Printing can make next feel free to drop us a line. I've already got an awesome request for an elephant city pin.
Feel free to stay in touch either here in the campaign or over on Instagram. I'm trying to get a post out at least once a week. My primary job with Kubo Printing is to make awesome art for you guys so I'd love your comments. I hope everyone has a fabulouse weekend.

What's next

Happy Friday everyone! The campaign is officially over and I'm here to tell you what's next. First off, surveys. They are being set up now. Kickstarter takes about two weeks to process everything and once that's complete surveys will immediately go out. I think in my last update I said it'd be about a week but right now I'm aiming for October 6th.
Second, pre-order store. I'm expecting that to also go up the first few days in October. That'll be for anyone who missed the campaign but would still like to get in on the first round of orders from our manufacturer.
Third, as soon as the majority of surveys have been filled out I'll post another update letting you all know how much we've raised for our turtle conservation charity donation. I'll update the number again once orders are locked.
Fourth, that's it! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend filled with love of turtles, tortoises, and whatever else you're into.

Today is the last day of the campaign! It's gone wonderfully so far. I'm so excited about being able to unlock all the designs at the last minutes. Your swell in support has made it that much better.
Once the campaign ends tonight we'll move into the survey phase. It'll be about a week of set up then you can expect one in your inbox. You'll be able to specify which rewards and add-ons you want there as well as get an estimate on shipping. Thanks everyone! Have a fabulouse Thursday.
