Hi there,
So over 600 A4 Annual combos's went out today - there will be 3 of us packing annuals for the next 4 days in the hope that we can get all these out by the end of the weekend.
I will look to get other perks sent as well - many are asking for the O cassette - so will look at this first.
I am waiting for the label, inlay and instructions for the Next SD from the printers - so will send these separately.
Where your order is over 2kg, YOU WILL get multiple packages.
Looking forwards to seeing what you think of these - first lot will be arriving in UK homes this Saturday if Royal Mail keep up!
For now, please do not chase items as this causes me admin, and takes me away from packing.
Cheers, Chris

Hi there,
The annuals will be with me tomorrow morning - so PLEASE fill in the Questionnaire you have been sent ASAP. Please check your E-mail or SPAM etc.
I will start sending these out tomorrow - if I do not have an address, you will be missed in the first mail out!
I have noticed a number of backers have used private apple E-mail addresses. I will contact you individually, as I will not have been able to send an E-mail to you via Backerkit.
Thanks, Chris

Hi there,
Thanks so much for the support on the campaign - a record for one of my campaigns, so feeling very humbled.
So to ensure that we had the Annuals back in time for XMAS, and also for the CRASH event on the 15th and 16th November, the annuals were sent to print at the start of the Kickstarter campaign - this was the only way I could ensure they were back in time.
So the good news is the Annuals have been printed and as of now, are travelling across Europe from Turkey to me. They should be with me in the next 2 1/2 weeks or so.
The printers are sending 20 of the CRASH, Next and Fusion annuals to me that will arrive tomorrow - these will be shown at our CRASH event on the 15th and 16th November. There are some tickets left on the Saturday and Sunday - check here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/fusionretrobooks/1717661
In the mean time, I thought I would show you some pics of the actual annuals:
Cheers, Chris
PDF - Tier - READ THIS

Hi again,
Many of the PDF tier backers would like the option to get some add-ons. To do this I have created a new Tier called : Next Cover SD. This tier includes the PDFs and the Next Cover SD perk.
Many of you on the PDF tier are asking for the Next Cover SD - so this is the easiest way to do this. You can add other add-on items to this tier as well.
For clarity - where I have called this perk DVD, it should have said SD, but I was unable to change it.
Thanks, Chris
O - CASSETTE version - NEW ADD-ON

Hi there,
We have a launched a new format for our Next games - Cassette. Yes, the cassette case we used as Speccy and C64 owners and loved over the years is back.
The difference this time, is that the cassette case holds a Spectrum Next themed mould that holds an SD Card case.
If you would like one of these, then add it to your pledge - the add-on is called O - CASSETTE version. It will also be available in Backerkit post campaign. There are 100 available.
The images below are a quick demo of the final product.
This image shows the different formats for O - standard DVD, Deluxe box and now Cassette.
Cheers, Chris
