Red PANda Pins: LGBTQ, Pan, & Queer
🕑 Added 2022-12-29 00:57:59 +0000 UTCSorry for the slightly late reveal; I got the flu at the beginning of the month and now have a restrictive injury from ongoing coughing. It has made me very slow, even now. Red finished the contours for these pins weeks ago and I have just been unable to work normally on the color maps, effects, and graphics.
Since I was set back 3 weeks, functionally so is our manufacturer. This quarter’s pins will probably functionally ship in February. That includes the Knittens, Sheep, and these PANdas. As a thank you for your patience, this month's discount code will be 25% again instead of the usual 20%.
Recently we unlocked 3 flags per month! Learn more about new tiers and legacy tiers in our Tier Changes Post.
The Three Red Pandas for this month:
- The Gay Breakfast is "Philly Pride" LGBTQ Red Panda.
- The Special is the Red PANda.
- The *new* Seasonal is the Queer Panda.
To get multiple pins:
- The *new* Combos get you 2 pins (Details in our Tier Changes Post)
- The *new* Prix Fixe gets you all 3 pins, and
- The *new* worldwide Buffet comes with all three plus a mystery pin— 4 pins total!
The Coupon Club is a great way to take a break and still access 20-25% off our store, plus our upcoming design polls. It also helps to keep us at a membership level where we can continue to offer 3 flags a month.
Old retired tiers will get the same combination of pins they always have. But if you change tiers, you cannot return to old retired tiers later.
All pledge changes made before December 31st at 11:59PM Pacific will apply to these pins, and will not be charged until January 1st!
Please help us spread the word on Twitter
Mailing Schedule:
We also want to remind you that we mail quarterly now. This means 3 months of pins will be mailed simultaneously. Here is the reasoning:
- Pin Production times are trending longer. We used to be able to get pins in 4 weeks and it is taking 6-8 weeks, even without factory closures.
- Inflation is hitting everybody, including us. Rather than raise prices to match inflation, we can keep prices lower if we mail 2-3 months at once.
Current Mailing Status:
- All of last quarter's patreon pins (August-October) went out some time ago.
- We finished mailing preorders, barring a few with address errors.
- Orders without preorders that were placed during our move/vacation/illnesses (Oct-now) are being worked on this week.
If we make any errors on your order, please message us here and at support@GayBreakfast.GAY—and we will work to resolve any fulfillment errors on our part during our next mailing.
Thank you so much for your support and patience as we adapt to changes in membership and the economy!

I wanna get the PANda but idk if my tier will allow me to get it

We don’t have a tier that does that ( It would be chaos making that many options on Patreon), but patrons do get first dibs on leftover pins when we start to sell them in our store some months later. Thank you!
Emma Morrison
I had a question about the support tiers, which one would I pledge to if I wanted to get two of the gay breakfast rainbow pins? I think this would be great for my sister but I also want one too
SpicedPie
Thank you so much for your understanding and support! I’m really grateful for a following that is so kind.
SpicedPie
Thank you! I improve a little almost every day! Gonna try to take a walk today. 💪

That is why we are so grateful we got enough members to expand to 3 pins a month. There are so many fun but uncommon flags that deserve some love! The Queer flag is so pretty too.

Oh goodness, thank you so much for the Queer flag on the seasonal variant!

The PANda is so perfect I could cry 😭 I hope you are feeling better, friend 💜

Yup, I have the Pan Red Panda and Ace Raccoon from the Kickstarter. They’re a cute little pair.
Sarah Riv
Hope you feel better!!! These are worth the wait too!! So dang cute!!!
SpicedPie
They are a weakness for us too. We made one for our Wild Pride collection in 2019 and just had to upgrade it.

🤣 Just when I thought I could be okay not getting all three, my greatest weakness: red pandas.
