Project Update: Hitting The Halfway Point

So you want to hear about more figures. We've heard you! So here’s the situation - Making these big mammoth boys is expensive and we here at Complexly spend most of our time and money making educational entertainment. But what we don't have is a big budget for making merch. All the artists, designers, painters, and sculptors, paying the factory mold-costs (almost $160,000 by itself!), the raw materials – everything – all has to be paid for in advance, so we need the crowd-funding campaign to advance us the money before we can make anything. 

We know this is different than what you may have experienced with kickstarters run by companies who are primarily in the “making products” business! They usually spend a lot of their own money to make their goods, but every dollar we spend on mammoths is a dollar we're not spending making educational content.

The cost of the Mammoth, Baby, Snowy-Variants, and the 1/35th scale, with a minimum order quantity demanded by the factory, is set at the ambitious $185,000. If we hit that goal, we can make just those figures. If we can get more, we can unlock more figures!

We just don't have the budget to make these rad figures at a deficit without your help! 🙏 But we’re excited to make whatever we can!

So… what are we doing to make this happen?

Our incredible PR manager, Mark, secured lots of coverage for this project. Go read and share these articles! 

The amazing Eons team has been making videos and promoting this project across our platforms. Watch our recent videos, some of which have a special star you may recognize!



What's next? We will keep telling everyone we can about this Backerkit project! We’re so grateful for everyone who has joined us so far.

I know it’s a ways to go, but we have big - even MAMMOTH - dreams!
