FINALLY. The day has come, PopPet's are now ready to ship!
Thank you all for being so patient! I have learnt so much from this experience and sure, there have been ups and downs, but overall I loved it. I can safely say that I may well do another Kickstarter campaign in the future with a PopPet V2 thanks to all of your support and kind words.
I've come so far in these past few months. It all started with a simple cardboard robot, which turned into a 3D printed robot, which turned into a product that hundreds of people will shortly have in their own homes. My long time dream of bringing robots to the masses is coming true, thanks to you.
I will be sending out rewards in groups. The first to be sent out will be the Standard kits, so Standard kit backers can expect a Survey for their addresses in the coming minutes. Once they have all been sent, I will move onto the next reward level. This is done in no particular order, just what I grab first and start packing.
Also, as promised, the plans for PopPet will also now be released. From the get go PopPet was going to be an Open Hardware robot. Why? Because I was once a young boy with no money and no software skills who wanted to make robots. Making PopPet Open Source will allow a whole community to work together to improve and modify PopPet, but also make PopPet more accessible for other young boys and girls who have that same drive that I do.
PopPet's plans will be released on the website first, followed by sites such as; Thingiverse,YouMagine, LetsMakeRobots and Instructables.
PopPet's plans were released early to a few close people to gather feedback on the files, as you can see, they are working quite well.

But, as with any Open Source project, they might not work for your setup, so provide feedback and contribute to make this an easy and fun experience for all.
That is all for now. You will receive your address survey when your reward level is being shipped. If you have any questions or queries don't be afraid to contact me directly at JaidynEdwards@PopPetTheRobot.com.
