Extending the deadline to October 10 proved to be a smart move, as the campaign has now surpassed its $185,000 USD minimum goal. The 1/18 scale woolly mammoth adult and calf and the 1/35 scale adult toys will become reality. This is excellent news indeed!
However, with less than 48 hours to go, it is practically a given that none of the stretch goals will be met. So no Gomphotherium, Platybelodon, or Moeritherium for next year. Still, David Silva has stated that he has no intention of letting those sculpts go to waste, and remember that he has a Beasts of the Cenozoic series planned.
As always, only time will tell.

If the Mamut sells well, that will help the others become a reality in Beasts of the Cenozoic!
David Silva was hired by the PBS Eons teams to make the prototypes and later organise the production of funded figures. Fortunately the Eons teams will look into things how to unlock the other figures after the campaign- my guess: via preorder store (that store would be wise without the need to unlock the stretch goals too).
