Hi there backers,
Just wanted to give you a quick status update on physical rewards! We've received proofs for the gorgeous Johto Legends CD digipak and are moving forward with manufacturing. HURRAY! Once we have all the discs, we'll start sending those out with all other rewards (stickers, postcards, buttons, etc.) within a month! We appreciate your patience as we ensure the printing quality is top-notch.
Other good news: we found a small supply of Double Team CDs from our original Kickstarter stock that are available right now on Bandcamp! But you'll have to act fast -- these albums will be gone soon!
Pretty, no? Double Team features Pokémon music across the generations performed by a live string orchestra, with album art by our very own Franz Anthony, the designer of the Johto Legends CD artwork. It's a must-have for PokéCollectors!
Looking forward to getting these sent out and into all of your hands very soon!
Best,
Braxton and Sebastian
