If you're a backer for Pop Culture Swords, I got a short update on fulfillment below!
I'm the mean time I wanted to take a chance to highlight a couple campaigns that good friends of mine are doing, as well as announcing the launch date for my upcoming campaign!
First up we have 39 Live In Concert by Atomicpowered! It's a super cute Vocaloid fan pin set and this is her first crowdfunding campaign so please give her and her art some love and support!
Next up is Sinful Suits by CrimsonChains and Kaizuart! This one's a big one featuring a fully illustrated playing card set, more gorgeous pins based off of some of the cards in the deck, and an ita bag! Please check it out! And lastly is a 2-in-one that I'm involved with! I'll be launching my next project Animal Talismans on March 18th! I'll be collaborating with PangolinKnight who is doing her first ever crowdfunding campaign, Mytho Menagerie! My set will be a super detailed animal pin collection and PangolinKnight is doing mythological animals of North America! You get two freebie pins if you back both projects so please consider backing both!
Hope you're all doing well! Just wanted to update you on production - THE PINS ARE HERE! They're early by a couple weeks so because of that the stickers aren't here yet because I was trying to time them to arrive at the same time. Oops!
So now what?
Well, now I have to grade all of them. I have about a week before I have to leave for 3 conventions back-to-back (pray for me) so I have time to grade but not time to fulfil. I have to wait for the holo stickers anyways. Fulfilment will be in the latter half of February, so we're still on schedule. This was a smaller campaign so it shouldn't take very long to get them all done in one go!
As far as other projects go, I'm going to have another update for upcoming campaigns. The TL;DR is I decided to not do Pintopia this year because I'm too busy to run a campaign this month, BUT I will be doing another campaign in March!
HUZZAH! Got the first crop of sample photos today! Don't worry about the metal colour - these aren't plated yet. That's all! I got excited! Love seeing everything come together!
Sorry, I meant to post this update days ago but I've been swamped with other things. Just wanted to thank you all for your super prompt survey replies! Thanks to that, I've been able to get a good count of what needs to be ordered early. I ordered the pins last weekend and the molds are currently being made!
I will be doing my first lock-and-charge this Friday, then the next (and last) one will be on December 31st. There's less than 10 of you who still need to fill out the surveys so please make sure to get it done before the 31st!
Just wanted to pop in to say that surveys are a little delayed but are almost done! I had back to back conventions and severely overestimated how much time I had in between shows to work on it. I just have to finish up the EU/UK survey and create questions for the early bird and returning backer incentives, then submit for review.
Once the surveys are approved, a smoke test will be sent out to a small amount of backers. 24 hours later, the rest of the surveys will be sent!
The pre order store will also be opened when the smoke test surveys get sent.
A reminder about the freebie Shiba Inu pin - all physical tier backers during the campaign will get one for free! If you missed the campaign but order via the pre order store, the Shiba Inu pin is NOT automatically included. The freebie incentive was specifically for folks who backed while the campaign was live. You can still purchase it as an add on in the shop!
Also concerning when cards will be charged for add ons and shipping, I think I'm going to do what I did for the last campaign and lock/charge cards every Friday. It seemed to work very well and there were very few (if any) card issues that way. I'll update the campaign page to reflect this change soon.
