I like their colors. I'm living in Mexico. When can I receive them if I order?

Hi all,

Apologies for the radio silence on this set. The sales did not meet expectations, but the vendors have decided to move forward with the set regardless. This decision was taken at the end of February, but not communicated to me. I only found out after doing some digging on SP's Discord channel last week. I'll just post the update that was shared in the channel:

So did this end up getting made? Are there going to be extras or just the sets for the buyers?

Orders are shipping now. Not sure if there will be any extras; I doubt it, as the page was removed from the site. They usually only do that if there are no extras.

Ah bummer, I'll have to keep an eye out for someone selling then.
