Has anyone received the "The Century Beast Colouring Book", or the "A Very Personal Note"? My account had those slated to ship back in February, but I've not heard any mention of them since redeeming the tickets.

I am also on the list to receive them, but neither appears to have shipped.

I've assumed they're waiting until after the story is finished to send the coloring book.

I think the coloring book is based on Lovecraft's story "Color Out of Space" and so it would be entirely unrelated to Century Beast.

I remember the Kickstarter materials describing the coloring book as being a retelling of the Century Beast narrative.

TheGenii, I just double checked the Kickstarter, and though the reward level was labeled "The Colouring Book Out of Space" it was described as a "darkly whimsical colouring book interpretation of the story of the Century Beast."

I stand corrected. Could they make the entire Century Beast experience any more confusing?

Best not to challenge them on that.

Just wanted to double check and see if anyone has received these items? I haven't actually redeemed my tickets for the coloring book or the Very Personal Note yet, as I wanted to wait until the experience was complete for my recipient. Should I wait until the C&C epilogue, or would redeeming my tickets now be reasonable?

You may as well redeem your tickets. Having a ticket doesn't appear to get them sent any sooner and punching your ticket late so your stuff can't go out with the bulk shipment could result in additional delays?

My account on the MPC website shows the Coloring Book with an "(Estimated ship date: Jan 25, 2016)." So, I have no idea when it's coming, unless it arrived seven months ago and I'm living in an off-kilter alternate life experience. The 10th and final mailing of The Century Beast, which must be the bonus C&C issue, is listed as mailing around August 16th, so the Coloring book will likely arrive in September. On the other hand, the "Very Personal Note" is listed as "Expected to Ship around August 3, 2016." Hey, that's this Wednesday! Unless it's not.

Well, my coloring book is being shipped. I've even got a tracking number. The website had originally projected the ship date for November when I redeemed my ticket in the last couple of weeks. I'm pleasantly surprised by the earlier ship date.

It's curious that it's being shipped (I received the same notice) before the bonus issue of Curios & Conundrums.
