Pintopia 2024 | Lovecraftian Horrors Season 2

Hi all of you amazing humans,

Just wanted to keep you all updated on the surveys!

I've submitted them for BackerKit's review (they do a great job of making sure all my t's are crossed and the i's are dotted), meaning that in 24-48 hours we can move on to what's known as the smoke test - a tiny percentage of you will get your surveys, and then everyone will get their surveys.

A few special notes:

RETURNING BACKERS - you do NOT have to add the sticker pack to your cart. I'll just be adding that in myself when I pack your orders.

BACKERS OF THE FLIRTATIOUS FUNGASS CAMPAIGN - BackerKit tells me your extra bonus Fungal Infection pin is in there already.

Alright, thanks again, and I'll update everyone again when the surveys start going out!

Oh, one last thing - if you've got any friends who missed the boat on backing, I've got a pre-order store up now.

Ciao!

Hi all,

So, after some financial finagling, talks with the factory, and deciding I want these designs to come to life,  I've decided to unlock all the campaign pin designs. No Dark Wheel cultist pin, sadly, but all the Lovecraftian Horrors are yours to choose from!



Regarding surveys, there's some backend stuff BackerKit has to do regarding the collaboration pins with our friendly Fungass partners and all of that, but that should be figured out by the end of this week, and then surveys shall go out. The only sticky part is that I'll be traveling for a friend's wedding, so while I want to get these surveys out to you ASAP, when they drop will all depend on how much work I get can done before heading out this Thursday. Expect them by the 7th at the very latest! 

Thanks so much for all the support, and looking forward to getting the surveys (and these pins) out to you! 

Have a great week!

Hey everyone!

First off, I just wanted to thank all of you for supporting the campaign and showing some love for the unspeakable horrors that creep just outside the periphery of vision in alternative dimensions that seep over into ours.

Very, very humbled and grateful for all of your support!

So what's next?

While we weren't able to make our last few stretch goals, I'm in conversation with my factory seeing if there's a way to finagle getting all the pins made anyway, since I want all of them made, but no promises yet.

But Rick, I would have backed more if I knew all the pins were going to be unlocked!

Fret not, loyal backer, as if this does come to pass, I'll be making sure you can add them all on in the backer surveys. 

Because I'm trying to work this out so everyone's favorite pins get manufactured, surveys might take a few days to come out. I'd say expect next week or so - and be sure to watch your email, as I'll let folks know once they go out! 

Okay, so I'm off to try and get surveys prepared as I await for a bit more information from my factory! 

Thank you again!!!

-Rick

Howdy folks! We're almost to the finish line!

The campaign ends Thursday at 1pm PT - so if you're on the fence, the time to act is now!

I've also talked to someone who really wants all the pins to unlock, so they've basically made a matching pledge for $400 so that Wilbur Whaley AND The Terrible Old Man will unlock at $2300.


So if we can get that extra little bit past the Mi-Go, all the campaigns pins (except the bonus freebie pin that's still at $3000) will be options to choose from on your backer surveys. 

Now is the time to spread the word, and thanks to the generosity of a certain supporter (don't worry, I'm throwing in tons of extras for them if we get there), we're way closer to unlocking all the featured pins!

Thanks again and let's goooooo!

Cheers,
Rick

Hi everyone!

We're 6 days out from end of campaign, and the Mi-Go was voted next to unlock at the $2100 mark! Thanks for voting, backers!

The new poll for the $2400 pin is now up, and backers can vote on whether or not Wilbur Whaley, the horror of Dunwich, or the soul-stealing Terrible Old Man (who admittedly is far from designed as canon), shall be unlocked shall we get to $2400.

To that end, I'd love for us to get to the $3k mark, as that way all the pins will be unlocked and all backers who have backed at a physical reward tier will get a free cultist pin. I'm optimistic that we'll get there in that infamous last-day of campaign push, but if we get there sooner, that would be even better!

So if you know of anyone who loves Lovecraftian pins, or just creepy monster pins in general, please spread the word!

Backers, you can vote in the final poll (since the loser of this poll automatically becomes the pin unlocked as the $2700 stretch goal) here!

Thanks again everyone, and have a great weekend!

Cheers,
Rick
