It's because I had the IC up for only 5 days
I didn't need a crazy amount of interest for 20 units
If I had spent months promoting like Mr Lysol did with Le Fishe, then I would have got a lot more, but I'm not interested in selling more units.

I'd rather have everyone have something unique, special, and timeless, rather than everyone have only one of my creation.
That's why there will be more new things coming in the future : )

"I'd rather have everyone have something unique, special, and timeless, rather than everyone have only one of my creation." 20 units is hardly everyone :D My copium is very strong, was busy at work so missed the short IC/GB window, so if you have one spare spot to sell...

To have only 20 people get it, rather than 200 units, makes it more special.
QCing is quite fun too

I was supposed to ship to buyers myself during my Thanksgiving break but the shipping to me was delayed and I did not receive the package in the time I was home
Therefore all my shipping boxes and carrying cases will be sent to the Mr Ultra to finish the buy

this is the reference I have for the infill, I had concerns From Mr Yavin about it looking weird in the photo

This should be the correct color, I can't check until it arrives to the Mr Ultra, of course

For right now Enjoy the song

correct color is the one on the right vs old color on the left that i wanted redone

Nice job :thumb:

GB is over now, leaving hobby for a few months (not active on gh). Send me an email at treeleaf642@gmail.com or send a message in my discord server (or pm @ treeleaf64#9491) if you need support or help.
If no response, ask mkultra.

Flashing instructions for pcb are stated in 917 channel pins.
Need to solder to check if working.

I will do salzburg and pink pig in July when I get back home.
I'll take commissions on colors and support remakes if problems. No more new public GBs for now.

Thanks everyone for support (and some criticism).
