Post-Campaign Update 8: Orders shipping out!
almost 2 years ago – Fri, Jul 19, 2024 at 03:20:43 AM

Howdy all!

Sorry for the huge delay - real life (including a bad bout of food poisoning) has sort of made me slugging and behind, BUUUUUUT, I'm happy to say that all of your orders are packed up and being delivered to the post office tomorrow! And by tomorrow, I mean Friday. I guess that's today, but that's what happens when you stay up past 3am :P

Anyway, I also made a mistake with printing the wrong pins as stickers, but it ended up working out better as I enlarged the Cthulhu Evolved sticker a wee bit, and so the older "misprinted" version is going to to everyone.

I really appreciate the patience and support with this campaign, and I'm pretty stoked on the pins.

(sorry, I forgot to add in the Terrible Old Man, but he looks great!)

Anyway, thank you again, and most of your orders should be arriving within the next week or so. You should have gotten an email from BackerKit (and/or Pirate Ship - the shipping company I buy my USPS labels from) with your shipping info. If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up: [email protected]

I hope you're all managing in the crazy hot summer we're having, and please enjoy! 

Much gratitude,
Rick

Post-Campaign Update 7: Orders locking and cards charging for shipping/add-ons soon!
almost 2 years ago – Mon, Jun 17, 2024 at 10:37:46 PM

Hi all,

It's time to lock those orders! Most of y'all have filled out your surveys (thank yoooou!!) 

Your likely got an email informing you your order was locking in 48 hours..after that cards will be charged for shipping and if you added stuff on, and.. drum roll... the pins should be arriving soon!

The current timeline is that the pins should arrive in a day or two along with the backing cards, and then the stickers should be landing a day or two after that, so while I know I said September, I think we should be good to go in a week or two! 

I just wanted to keep everyone in the loop, and I hope everyone is staying cool out there. Thank you again!

-Rick

almost 2 years ago – Thu, May 30, 2024 at 01:55:11 PM

Howdy all!

Thanks to everyone who has already filled out their surveys! There's only a few stragglers left out there..so while I've got enough data for manufacturing and all that (the orders have been placed!), I'm still waiting on a few of you. If that's you, please fill out your surveys when you get a chance!

Also, if anyone is going to be at Monsterpalooza this weekend, I'll be there in Mr. Hyde 159! Come say hello, check out my newest creation, the All-Seeing Oracle, and some unholy Nightmare Chan! 



Hope you're all doing well, and thanks again! 

Cheers,
Rick

Post-Campaign Update 5: Survey are out!
almost 2 years ago – Wed, May 15, 2024 at 09:58:11 AM

Hello everyone! 

Surveys have gone out - please double check your Promotions and Spam sections of your inbox if you don't see it, as they're notorious snaggers of surveys. 

Please fill out your survey ASAP, and I can't wait to get these pins out to y'all! 

Thanks again and have a great week!
Rick

Post-Campaign Update 4: Smoke Test!
almost 2 years ago – Sat, May 11, 2024 at 05:40:20 PM

Hi all,

Happy weekend, and happy Mother's Day to any of you mommas out there !

Just FYI, I got the green light to send out the "smoke test" a required step for BackerKit. This means that 5% of you will get your surveys, and if everything looks fine, I'll be sending out all the surveys on Monday.

So if you've gotten an email for the survey, please fill it out as soon as you can.

Thanks again and I'll update again when all the surveys have gone out!

Cheers,
Rick
