Why This Account Stands Out

✓ True Kickstarter heritage from 2012, with Original Backer status
✓ Includes the rare Original & Veteran Backer Reward set (Repair Bot, Test Pilot Suit, Record Breaker Skin, and more)
✓ Comprehensive Funding Milestone Rewards up to $200M – a full timeline of Star Citizen’s growth
✓ Rare event memorabilia spanning Best in Show, CitizenCon, and milestone anniversary rewards
✓ Perfect supplemental account for collectors wanting the rarest flair and backer perks in one package

This account embodies the spirit of Star Citizen’s journey, from its first crowdfunding days to its current era of annual expos and celebrations. It contains pieces of history no longer attainable: the AMX-1 Repair Bot, milestone artifacts, CitizenCon digital gear, Best in Show trophies, and more. For collectors, this is the ultimate supplemental account—an archive of early community triumphs and an investment in Star Citizen’s evolving story.
