Anyhoo, I just got an update from Clover Press' Kickstarter for David Nakayama's art book. They gave pics of stacks of boxes containing books, pics of bonus material, pics of books. What a difference a sponsor makes..
True it should be different than Joe Schmo sending a single 15 lb box across the country via USPS you’d think, which would cost a mini gold mine these days at current rates.

Would have been nice to have progress pics throughout like that I agree. I will say the impossible has happened, and the books seem to finally be delivered (I’m still waiting on mine but it taking the scenic tour in transit I think). I’m still pretty surprised and amazed tbh.
