I received the third mailing today.
While reading some accompanying ephemera, I was momentarily concerned that the artifact was going to be the same as what was used for a previous experience. I was relieved to see that it wasn't. Doubly so, since I just re-ordered that experience.

Does the artifact come in the third mailing? Yup. Not a huge amount of accompanying material, and I really really really wish that the "covering" was big enough for me to wear and I guess we should expect a finale along with the reveal letter

There was a collective response from everyone else in my home of "oh hell no" upon taking it from the crate haha

Received both the crates for this and the Egyptian experience today.
The artifact for "Cult" is fabulous ... top notch and the first artifact that gave me the creeps!

I absolutely loved this. Unbelievably creepy on all fronts. I was also a bit surprised at how much part of this tied into King in Yellow, enough to where I'm not sure that I would recommend someone getting this without also getting King in Yellow Also, I'm interpreting that terrifying photo as the creative team/old staff of the MPC saying goodbye. Maybe a bit heavy-handed of me.

So with the new thing to figure out... did everyone have 5 groupings for the last one? I have a creepy suspicion about something but want to make sure haha Update: Confirmed with craigrj that my suspicion was, indeed, correct. HA!

I got: The wrapped statue with a covering a small blue bag with two journal entries, one from the Ibis Hotel and the other aged from the asylum A letter reveal from the Order of Two Worlds.
Did you get something different?

That's odd. I did the "They Win The War" ending and got all of that but also got (this will spoil the contents of the other object, so read at your own peril) a rolled up photo of people wearing the covering from the statue. Maybe they forgot it? I'd contact the MPC if it wasn't in there; I don't remember exactly where it was in the packaging. Did you also get a letter from BBL apologizing for the actions of one of their employees?

It's possible I didn't investigate the crate enough.

I almost missed the postcard crudely rolled up in the bottom of the crate among the excelsior. And you don't want to miss it!

I hate the artefact for this, won't be displaying this one. What's it supposed to be? It's creepy in the sense of a bad horror movie, in no way this looks like it could remotely be Lovecraftian. I got all other artefacts (xept Filigree) and this is the bottom tier. Suddenly I am not that mad any more that MPC don't ship to Germany any more.

Horses for courses I guess, I really liked this one - a representation of Carcosa I presume particularly the creepy mask attached, that's brill.
