Hi Andreas and Metalweave team, Just wanted to enquire about shipping on these - my autopay failed and I hadn't realised, since my bank updated some systems, so my card was charged only last month for shipping. Am I able to get an update on whether or not that's too late for my pledge to be shipped? Thanks!

Got my die, and the quality is really good. One downside, though not a deal breaker, is the numbering on the die is not like a regular d20. Traditional d20 has the 1 on one side and the 20 on the opposite with the numbering sequence proceding from there. On the die I received the number oposite the 1 is the 19 and obviously the rest of the die numbering is off. Like I said, no deal breaker but very disapointing nobody there seemed to know how an actual d20 is numbered.

I've been waiting for this to arrive anxiously, but it turns out that my card was never charged for shipping, so it probably hasn't shipped. I can't find a way to contact Metal Weave to try and get my card charged. Anyone know if there's a button I'm missing on here, or I should I try outside Backerkit? Thanks!

Do you have any advice for smoothing down the seams? I feel like you said the foam was solid color through - so would it be possible to sand/buff the seams down? What about removing the numbers and repainting them? Overall, I am very satisfied with the dice and they are more solid and substantial that I expected, but if I could bring the seams down and redo the numbering to reflect normal dice, they would be perfection! Thank you kindly for your any feedback or ideas. :)

Project Update: Dice have Arrived!!

Hey all,
Just a quick update, it looks like the Dice have officially arrived at the warehouse today!

Right after I posted my last update I had some confusing communications with the manufacturer as to whether things had shipped or not. Ultimately there was a delay, as we were expecting them at the beginning of the month, and they shipped right as the team returned from Chinese New Year (which in manufacturing terms means everyone gets the entire month off, so nothing really moves in Jan/Feb).

But, now since things have arrived, I'm going to have the warehouse check packaging (I'm hoping that we can use our existing owlbear plush boxes to ship the die. If we can, that means we can start fulfillment next week. If not, then it'll probably take another few days just to get the right boxes and everything.

What does this mean for our handful of international folks? (right now looking into what our options are for shipping internationally in bulk. I wont lock the orders/charge for intl yet, until we figure out whats going on (theres less than 10 of you so we should be able to figure this out nicely).

So whats next?
I'm locking down backerkit and charging cards, so I can then import all the orders into shopify (our order system for our warehouse to start packaging and shipping everything out!

Thanks so much for the support and the extra wait!
Andreas!
