BackerKit surveys are coming!
almost 7 years ago – Wed, May 24, 2017 at 10:30:19 AM

I'm going to send an email with a special link to BackerKit surveys today. It is important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since I need this information for fulfilling your rewards.

You do not need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey, just click on the survey link, fill it out, and you’re all good to go! You will be able to answer questions about your rewards preferences, provide shipping information, and pledge for more “add-ons” if you'd like. You do not have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!

If you decide later that you want to edit your survey response, you can go back to your survey and change it any time before I lock down the surveys for processing.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you will be able to recover your survey here: palaeoplushies.backerkit.com

If you use your Facebook login for your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey will be sent to the email you used for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you would prefer to use, please contact support at palaeoplushies.backerkit.com/faq and we'll get you sorted out! (If you already messaged me about changing email addresses, don't worry I've sorted those already!)

What a response! + Backerkit for surveys!

Look at that! We smashed that target and rocketed to the moon! 

Thanks everyone who has backed me thus far. I'm humbled by your enthusiasm!

This is also to let you know I've been working with Backerkit to set up reward surveys. We will also offer the opportunity to select your add-ons and allow people who were unable to back the campaign to preorder the items, too. We will be accepting PayPal as well! 

You all should receive an email in a couple of weeks once the Kickstarter payment has cleared with links to your own personal backerkit login where you can manage your pledges and details!

Thanks again,

Rebecca

Wow! What a response! + New Pin Badge Design!
about 7 years ago – Fri, Apr 14, 2017 at 05:58:06 AM

A huge thank you to everyone who has backed this project so far!

I've got a little surprise for you all. A kind backer has expressed interest in seeing the pin badge in another set of colours, and I thought "why not?"! So I present to you...

Archaeopteryx Pin Badge - Black and Gold!
Archaeopteryx Pin Badge - Black and Gold!

This pin badge will be gold plated with matte unfilled areas and polished black hard enamel. Everyone who has already pledged for a badge will get the choice between the two designs, and if you want to add one on to your pledge it will be £6 for an add-on!

I plan on all the pin badges having a safety pin back so there's less chance of them falling off and getting lost, like these:

 Thanks again for your support!

Good news! The Archaeopteryx breeding project has begun!
about 7 years ago – Mon, Apr 10, 2017 at 06:05:57 PM

A huge thank you to everyone who has pledged so far to adopt their own Archaeopteryx.

My breeding pair is a little overwhelmed by the number of chicks they're going to have to raise, but they're down to the task and have already begun building a nest!

... So that's where all my socks went...
