You can either check out or return to the BDP site to add more sets to your cart.

Crowdfunding Quick Facts:

  • All designs that reach the 3,000 pre-order minimum threshold will be considered crowdfunded, and produced as BDP Sets.

  • Sets are produced in a limited production run of up to 30,000 copies based on pre-orders received.
