All Ceratopsian Kickstarter Stretch Goals Revealed plus New Podcast Interview!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I recently added a list of all of the stretch goals with pricing for the Beasts of the Mesozoic: Ceratopsians Kickstarter! So if anyone has been on the fence waiting for certain figures to be funded, now you can better plan your pledge. Because of the amount of possible stretch goals, I plan to split them up into three waves for production efficiency.
Wave1 (estimated delivery Sept. 2020)
Wave 2 (estimated delivery March 2021)
Wave 3 (estimated delivery Sept. 2021)
We're currently at $132,000.00 and looking to hit our main funding goal soon, but there are a lot goals we want to hit so if anyone is planning to participate, now would be a great time to jump in! And for those that have already pledged- THANK YOU. :)
New Podcast Interview
I also wanted to let everyone know that my recent podcast interview will Sal Briggman at crowdcrux.com is up now- click here
The Raptor Series is the focus of this podcast as I discuss my experience with the Raptor Series Kickstarter- so for those wanting more insight on this project, give it a listen!
Thanks everyone!

Hi Everyone!
I just wanted to put the word out to all you Raptor Series backers that the next series in the Beasts of the Mesozoic action figure line, Ceratopsians, is now live on Kickstarter! Check it out here.
Many of you have already pledged for these new figures, but I wanted to make sure I reached out to all those who may have missed the news. There are 25 possible ceratopsian figures total, so please check it out if you're interested in expanding your Beasts of the Mesozoic collection!
New 1/6th scale figures
We're currently three days in and are already over $92,000 of the $150,000 initial goal! And although most of the line is in 1/18th scale, there will be two 1/6th scale figures that are intended to compliment the Raptor Series: Protoceratops and Psittacosaurus, stretch goals #1 and #3 respectively.
Velocirapator may have some new competition soon.
If you're already a backer of the new campaign, thank you so much! For those just now finding out about the Ceratopsian Series, I hope that you'll join us and help to continue the Dinosaur Toy Revolution!
Enjoy!
David

Final reward fulfillment will begin soon- please check your addresses!
The wait is nearly over for the Wave 2 deluxe raptors as they have now safely reached the Fulfillrite warehouse in Lakewood, New Jersey. Final reward shipping for those with orders containing any of the six Wave 2 items will begin on Tuesday, May 29th. For those that have moved since pledging for the 2016 Kickstarter campaign, I highly encourage you to check your address in BackerKit to make sure it is correct. If the order can not be delivered or if it is accepted at the wrong address, the package may be unrecoverable. To check your order in BackerKit, please enter your email at this link. Or you may private message me here for additional assistance.
Deluxe Raptors: Wave 2 arrival from China
As for the raptors figures themselves, the helpful people at Fulfillrite were kind enough to snap some photos of the new arrivals for us. Take a look!

I can't express how great it feels to know that ALL of the products (over 30,000 units total) are now finally in-stock and ready to be shipped out! Consider for a moment what we've accomplished together... it is quite incredible.
.
BackerKit Store closing soon (May 28th)- Last chance to add-on or buy at pre-order price!
As we approach the final stage of the Beasts of the Mesozoic: Raptor Series reward fulfillment, it will soon come time to officially end the project on BackerKit and say 'farewell' to the pre-order store. As of the end of Memorial Day, May 28th, the BackerKit store will be closed for good and creative-beast.com will become the home for all of the available Beasts of the Mesozoic items.
But wait, there's more...
Memorial Day weekend/ Farewell sale- $10 discount code!
To commemorate the closing of the Beasts of the Mesozoic: Raptor Series BackerKit Store, I am running one final promotion over Memorial Day weekend (May 25th-May 28th). As of today, May 25th, you can use code FAREWELL10 to receive $10 off any order made this weekend (this includes adding to an existing order.) The code is only good for items purchased this weekend. If you would like to add to an existing order, please private message me with what you would like and I will follow up as soon as possible.
Again I can not thank everyone enough for the tremendous support and love that you all have shown for this project- you, the Kickstarter backers, have made this action figure series and thus the entire Beasts of the Mesozoic line, a reality. And thanks to the additional support through BackerKit, we now have the opportunity to extend the line for years to come. Fulfillment and customer service will be my priority in the coming weeks, but I will be putting together a proper video 'thank you' soon looking back on this project and discussing the future of the line, including details about the next Kickstarter campaign, Ceratopsians series 1.
So be sure to stay up to date with all of the latest news on the raptors, ceratopsians, and more by following me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. There is still much more in the works from Creative Beast Studio and the Beasts of the Mesozoic product line, even a few surprises...
hmm...
Take care everyone- bye for now and enjoy the holiday weekend!
