PERCY JACKSON LEGACY EDITION SET
Speaking of new products, hopefully you all saw Wednesday’s incredibly exciting announcement? 🤭
In case you missed it, we’re creating a Legacy Edition set of Percy Jackson and the Olympians! We are SO excited that the secret is finally out, and we cannot thank you all enough for the support you’ve shown this set already 💙
Only 5,000 sets are available, and they’re already selling fast! At the time of writing this newsletter, we have 3,966 available - grab yours before they’re gone 😉
VICTORIOUS
It’s been a very exciting time all round here at LitPins&Co, as we also announced our special edition of Victorious the other week! As a reminder, we are currently in STAGE ONE of early access, which means that all customers who ordered both SIGNED Vicious and Vengeful should now have been emailed with their early access. If you believe you should be in this stage but have not got an email, please get in touch as soon as possible!
Each stage lasts two weeks, so we’ll be contacting more of you for early access next week! Thank you all for your patience as we work through this process - we promise it’ll be worth it and you’ll all be able to secure your copies soon enough!
SPECIAL EDITION UPDATES - A MARKET OF DREAMS AND DESTINY & AN ARCANE INHERITANCE
Whilst we’re on the topic of special editions, we wanted to quickly update you all on two of our delayed editions, An Arcane Inheritance and A Market of Dreams and Destiny.
With A Market of Dreams and Destiny, the publishers and printers have apologised for the delay! Essentially, there was an unforeseen issue with some of the foiling which meant we had to take some time to fix it. It’s all sorted now though, and the books are heading to print very shortly! We’re hoping that we can receive these books at the same time as Vicious and Vengeful in September. To apologise for this delay, we’ll be adding 100 points to the accounts of everyone who ordered A Market of Dreams and Destiny. We’re so sorry for the wait, but we promise this edition will be worth it and we cannot wait to see it in person!
As for An Arcane Inheritance, we’ve still been going back and forth with the publishers and the printers to get these editions to print. After being left in the dark for a long while and experiencing multiple issues at print, it looks like we’re finally in the home stretch and these editions will hopefully be printed very very soon!
As we previously mentioned, this was our first time utilising this specific printer, and we will not be using them again. We are so sorry for the extended delays here - trust us, we’re super frustrated too! Hopefully before long I’ll have a more positive update to share with you all 💛

Please allow a little bit of extra time for us to respond to your emails or direct messages, and please don’t email multiple times as this pushes your email to the back of the queue. Any harassment or abuse directed at any of our staff will result in being blacklisted from our shop!
That’s all from us today! Have a wonderful week and enjoy the Autumnal vibes which are hopefully coming our way 🙂↕️
