Fall update, pins en route, projected ship dates

Hey all, what's up! It's been a while, you need an update.
My pin supplier notified me the pins cleared customs and they'll be picked them up this week. I'll get some photos from him to show off relatively soon. We had a little hiccup in the design process with a couple pins, but Eisbock got a cool glow in the dark upgrade I'm excited to show off.
In the mean time, and here in lies the rub, I've been planning a traveling vacation for months, and hit the road tomorrow! For safety reasons I tend to not talk about upcoming or in duration travel, so please excuse me for not giving many details. But it will cause a delay in shipping backer rewards since I won't be able to begin that until I return and have gone through all the pins, backed and bagged them. I had hoped to have this part done before I left, but the fault lies in me launching the Kickstarter campaign later than initially planned.
The good news is I have all the backs, bags, and shipping supplies ready to go once the pins are in my hands.
Look to the week of October 15th to see shipping begin. Surveys will remain open until right before then, so you can go back and change your options however you please in the mean time.
I'll do my best to answer questions via this update or messages, but do give me a bit of extra time to get back to you. If I have trouble checking in on KS while on the road I'll post updates to my twitter as well:

I had a few hiccups constructing the surveys but if all goes well it should be coming your way tomorrow!
Remember, it's only so I can get an estimate of what designs (if any) need more than 100 ordered, and you will be able to change your mind before I ship the pins out. (You'll get a head's up before then, too!) So please fill them out quickly, but be reassured if you change your mind I've got you covered.
Thanks again, and keep an eye out for the survey from BackerKit!

It's been quite a ride, and only twenty four hours left!
I'll have more info on surveys coming on the next update but for now, thanks to all of you who've supported this Kickstarter. :]

If you were waiting for Lambic to be available, the glittery, sour delight is there for you now! All ten dragon brews have been unlocked and I'm super excited to take the next step, surveys and production.
I've been hard at work on the back end setting up surveys for once the Kickstarter ends on Wednesday. (It's been much more of a task than expected!) But it should be super easy to manage your pledge options and change/update before shipping.
:D

Brown Ale purrs like a kitty now that the pin is unlocked. We have just four days left to unlock the glittery, sour Lambic.
In my committment to get all ten designs to you guys I'm going to go ahead and enable the Lambic combo in the rewards section. I'm also working on a special Kickstarter-backer only reward to slip into the packages when the pins come in as thanks for all the support. :]
