MAMO MONTHLY: AUGUST PIN CLUB REVEALS + NEW PINSTAPALOOZA PHOTO EVENT! (Patreon)

Happy July!

I hope everyone is having a great month so far! I am so pumped after the amazing bday weekend and vacation. I definitely needed that to recharge and just get back into the groove! I feel like I got such a good rest and I have a clear vision of what I want to do / my next steps in my art journey! I am so excited to put all these ideas into motion! Big changes are coming :D!

Some quick updates! June Pin Clubs will start shipping out this week! [Original and prestige only! I am still waiting on the Madoka which should arrive next week and those will go out mid July!] 

Pin Club Shop Access codes will be sent out today, June 5th as well @ 11 AM PST

I am still in the process of moving offices, but the process has been delayed a bit so I have decided to reopen the shop for now! The shop will close again after the July Shop Update [tentative July 24th]. I am going to slowly move and wait until August to fully move! I have been taking tons of videos/vlogs as you guys have seen in the mamocave discord channel, so expect an office tour when everything is complete :D!

NEW SLOTS / LIMITS

Original and Prestige slots will be unlimited slots until July 12th @ 12 PM PST for  a big event next month! Anyone who wants to participate should be able  RSVP/sign up easily for the first week :D! More on this later!

More Fashion and Combo tiers slots have added! These are capped so no slots will be added if they sell out for the month! Since they are more detailed/take longer to make, in order to avoid delays, I have to order ahead of time!

Now onto the design reveals!

August's original design is very special to me! Magical Boy!

Magical Boy MAMO is one of my first OC I have ever created, and I have so much love for him. I took so much inspiration from power rangers and sailor moon growing up and put it all into this pastel soft superhero! The prestige pin will be his bear guardian buddy, kumi.

August will be an extra special month and will have some huge events. I can not reveal all the details until after August 1st for reasons 👀 , but all original, prestige, and combo tier patrons will get some exclusive perks and bonuses next month :D! [fashion tier only patrons will not qualify for the special event perks, but will get still get discounts/early access!]

Because of this, all prestige and original pin club tiers will have unlimited slots for the first week! Combos and Fashion tiers will still be capped as we had a lot of dropped slots the past month so to avoid overordering pins!

⭐⭐**You will not be charged until AUGUST 1st @ 12 AM PST, and you will get perks like Pin Club Shop Access & more in AUGUST once charged!⭐⭐

------ and for the new fashion tier!!!!

I love Wizard of OZ and SM, so I thought it would be fun to combine them! Usagi is dressed up as Dorothy and Luna as Toto! This is one of my fave fashion pins to date, and I really was inspired by the rainbows colors of OZ. Instead of a sticker this month, I will be sending a high quality 4x6" matching print!!

This will be a 2.65" gold plated pin with print details on her eyes and dress + custom backing card as shown! The dress has two low opacity prints for the pattern so I am testing this effect out!

----- PIN CLUB SHOP // EARLY ACCESS DESIGNS! -----

Pin Club Shop codes will be sent at 11 AM PST today before my stream via email/patreon messages if you have been charged for July!  If you joined today, you will not be getting the code for this month but will get it next!

Reminder that pin club/ secret club shops  access codes are only sent to paid patrons for the current month! This is to be fair for paid patrons!

⭐ If you end up being charged later than the ~5th for July's package, please send an email to support@mamobot.com, and I will send your code separate.  This is only valid for people who pledged BEFORE JULY 1st.

Note: If you join the pin club ON or AFTER JULY 1st, that means you are signed up for August's Package. This means you have not been charged yet as Patreon only charges on the 1st of the month. You will not be charged until August 1st & you will get your pins/access codes for August!~
