Welcome to Pod Pals! I have been passionate about isopods for years as well as a keeper myself of over 15 species. It is my absolute pleasure to bring more isopod themed art into the world. Over the years we have made pins, stickers, keychains, and even small plush. Each one sparking more information sharing and excitement for these little crustations. After months of working from our smaller plush to make them into a fully functioning bag and plush we are ready to share them! We hope you will enjoy them as much as we have.

Each bag is made of mochi minky for a very soft feel, easy to clean, and hardy long lasting build. Embroidered details with a flat bottom for a comfortable fit while wearing. Straps can be fully removed and the bag becomes a very huggable plush. The pocket is perfect for a warm rice pouch or weighted beads. Each armored plate can be lifted up and felt underneath. Perfect for warming your hands or keeping them busy in a busy area.

They are 38cm from head to butt, 25cm wide, and 16cm tall. The side zipper is 20cm. Inside pouch is apx 30 cm wide and apx 20 cm deep, made of printed cotton. This fits a large phone, large wallet, small coin pouch, and small bag for chapstick ect. This bag also fits a Nintendo switch (Joy cons attached) tightly with a phone and wallet. Makes the perfect day bag on the go.
 
Each Pod Pal comes with 2 thick cotton adjustable straps with a max length of 85cm. All clips are metal to prevent breaking over time and use.

Shipping will be collected after the project is over due to fluctuating shipping. This ensures we can collect the right amount for each pledge. These rates are an estimate.

Timeline:
Our timeline is very planned out as we have a lot of experience working with large projects and manufacturing.
February: Project launches!
March: Project is completed and funds are collected. The order is placed for work to begin on the bags, pins, and keychains. If any other goals are met these will already be workshopped and ready to order.
April to June: The bags will be made with a 3 month deadline to ensure they are not rushed.
June: The bags are shipped and arriving for final checks and shipping!

We have run smaller plush before and many pin and keychains before. The risk for us is extremely low for complications. However if there are we are sure to post many updates to keep all of our amazing customer and supporters in the loop.
