SO! As I have said a few times now, most of the campaign is fulfilled. There have been 2 remaining hurdles:

This has been a grueling process. I apologize. This is not a problem I have ever encountered before. When the dragons first arrived I was told it would take about a month after arrival for me to get the fixed ones back. That has obviously not turned out to be the case.

I had a lot of trouble with these. It took forever to get their return shipment arranged. Then once they were out of my hands I was hearing a lot of nothing. At one point I was even told it should have been shipped, but after bugging them for tracking it became clear that was an assumption, since all that got found out was they hadn't even received the returned boxes yet.

Whenever I asked about it after that the question got dropped. I had to really be a pest to get something other than "Let me check" only for days of silence to follow. It turns out that this wasn't negligence on my manufacturer's part, though. Customs apparently just released the package to them two weeks ago and it finally arrived last week.

I am sincerely sorry for this terrible wait. This is a first for me and it has been very frustrating from here. I am sure it has been much moreso for all of you who are waiting! I am extremely grateful for your patience so far. This means that:

All the custom dragons are done and most are in-hand! I am only waiting to receive the mega jumbo and an extra copy of one of the plush. I just need to stuff them and ship them. This has been delayed first based on shipping materials, then time.(hurray convention prep woes,) but currently I am being held up by sheer physical ability. I need to hand stuff them, take basic photographs, fit them in the stupid huge polybags I sourced when the boxes I shelled out for weren't up to the task, and get them brought to the UPS store since they are too big to ship via USPS.

Normally this is not a problem. However I am currently recovering my ability to, well. Move. Like at all. Over the past few weeks my chronic spinal issue deteriorated and I lost the ability to walk and even to sit up. Stuffed jumbos are too heavy for me to even comfortably manipulate to pack.

I am just now starting to recover. I am still taking things very slow. It has been ADHD hell having to basically lay still for days and days, especially since even using my phone becomes too much strain in not much time (hence me only just now writing this chunky update) but it only got to this point because whenever I seemed just better enough I stopped taking it easy and immediately relapsed. I'm at the limits of what help I can reasonably ask for too. Caretaker fatigue is a thing. I don't have much choice other than waiting.

So again, thank you for your patience. I know this has not been ideal. I will have to find some extras to pack in and some other way to make it up to y'all, my brain is fully in Survive Constant Pain mode so I will have to share what that could be at a later time when I can do inventory and crunch some numbers. But it won't be anything I delay ready shipments for!

Sorry for all the words! Thank you for reading
