    At first I thought the silver bunny was painted to show the layers, but upon closer looking maybe that is a metallic PLA... Curious.

    According to the schedule on IGG:
    "Sept to Nov 2014 - Fabricate and qualify tooling" <- They're definitely right here now
    "Dec 2014 to Jan 2015 - Pilot runs and Regulatory Testing" <- very important step that most campaigns try to just skip (if they make a timeline at all)
    "Feb 2015 - Production Pilot" <- These get torture tested to make sure there's no need for emergency adjustments to the line.
    "Feb to May 2015 - Production and Delivery"

    It should be noted that the earliest promised delivery date is in April, so they have from February to March as wiggle room in the plan to iron out any kinks in production and build up a QA cue. It should probably be noted that most IGG campaigns would in this situation have tried skipping the testing and Production Pilot to try delivering in time for Christmas. One of the reasons the schedule is the most important thing I look at when considering donating to a campaign.
