At only $450 away from reaching our goal, we’re fast approaching the conclusion of our final fan project. We’ll be placing the orders very soon, so if you haven’t done so already, please visit our polls page and give us your input! Polls will be closing this Friday, October 19th, but donations will remain open through the end of the month. We’d really like to be able to make a donation to all four of our wonderful charities, and we know that those donations will mean as much to our recipients as the gifts themselves, so please be as generous as you can and pass the word along to everyone you know!

And now, here’s some concept artwork for the challenge coins, vaguely inspired by the First People calendar:

These are only mock ups of course, the coins will be engraved, similar to the example below in execution. The hashtags on the “tails” (tulips?) side of the coin encompass some of the most positive messages conveyed by the campaigns, and the Observer side is an attempt to illustrate how Fringe became more than a TV show, it became a sort of meta story about itself, about all of us, and all of those other wonderful words around the edge. Artwork may change per manufacturer specifications, we’ll post a proof as soon as we get one from the company. Meanwhile, feel free to let us know what you think of the design.

And here’s the (not quite finished) cover of the Thank You cards:

We’re almost there! Stay tuned for more updates as we get them, and a huge thanks to everyone who’s already supported this final labor of love!
