Hello everyone, while working my way through getting packages sent out, I have discovered a flaw I did not immediately notice on the Ace Miku design: her hand was filled with pink enamel rather than her skin tone. This effected the whole batch I recieved. please see the pics below:
My manufacturer has responded to my concerns and has agreed to remake them for me. This obviously will extend the wait period for the 15 orders which include this variant. Fortunately, since the mold has already been made, we are not looking at another 3 months and more realistically will recieve these in January (TENTATIVELY, it’s what I have been quoted and I am not in control of manu delays)
Because of this I am going to have to put all orders which include Ace Miku on hold until I am able to replace them with A grade quality pins. I’m very sorry for this disappointing update. Please contact me if you wish to replace this design with another in order to receive your pins faster, all other orders will continue shipping out throughout the rest of this month.
Thank you,
Acton
Pin Grading and Shipping Out
over 2 years ago

Hello everyone! Thank you for your patience during this journey! I have just gotten home from a trip to my family to a box full of pins ready to be graded and shipped out!
I really can’t thank everyone enough for their support and patience during this journey. Though I paid to ensure I’d have pins by October 1st , Chinese federal mandates requiring staggered and slowed production effected the company I used , coupled with slow shipping times and my trip I took to see my family.
However, they are here now and I am working to grade and begin shipping out this week!!
Sticker sheets have been stuck in customs for a long time, so pledgers who ordered or are due sticker sheets will have those shipped later in my queue. I am not expecting them to be stuck much longer as it appears they have begun moving again.
Here is a taste of what you can be expecting to ship beginning this week! Thank you so much everyone!
Process Update

Hello Everyone! I hope you are doing well! I am just checking in with everyone after realizing it had been a moment since we last touched base. I made a cross country move last month and became overwhelmed, so I apologise that I havent updated on here as rigorously as I intended. I have been more vocal on my instagram where I update when I get news. Going forward I will be more vigilant about these updates, and thanks for your understanding and patience!
The pins are currently in their plate coloring and screenprinting phase .
I was originally quoted an Oct 1st turnaround, and it is looking like everything is running smoothly to ship these out to yall in early October so far. ^^ I will update when I get news or if this should change for any unforseen reason.
Thanks everyone!

Hello everyone!! Thank you so much for a sucessful campaign!! I am popping in to let everyone know to expect a survey sent through backerkit some time between this week and next! They will go out staggered at first so you may not get one immedeatley so please be patient 😊
Backerkit will also open my preorder shop for anyone who wanted to get any extra pins they didnt originally pledge for.
Also, please make sure that your means of payment are accurate so thst you will recieve your pins! Kickstarter lets you change your card ! Kickstarter suggests to follow the following steps:
To change your payment method for a given pledge, please follow the below steps:

- On the next page, click “Update payment method” and from there, select “Add a new card” to update your payment information.
