I was really sick and had to cancel several events, so sorry about any delays there We should have everything on hand though there's a chance that I may need to re-order because its in a disaster of an office right now. (I can barely move my chair atm!)
But after a bit of long hours and barely anytime off, I've talked with my partner (who helps me ship out these campaigns) and our goal is Wednesday to start fulfillment (finally no joke) so your addresses will be LOCKED in the next 24 hours FOR REAL!
I'm sorry this was such a struggle of a campaign I'm really upset at myself that this is several thousand over budget, I was too ambitious seeing everyone have a bajillion rewards.. I thought I had to have that too and I deeply apologize for my newbie mistake on this campaign.. This one was a huge lesson and if you seen the paw campaign It was much smaller in rewards.. I think for the future I'll limited rewards or just unlockable at the end so there's no pressure for having every single milestone having a huge investment
We will be focusing on US orders first then international orders, just with how complex international laws and the US laws have been we will look closely into properly shipping so it doesn't get returned or destroyed somehow LIGHT GREEN GLORPS WILL take more time, only a few of you wanted dark green (That is on hand), these will be with an order with Jackalopes and the Jersey Devil from my other campaign (Cryptid). I'm still not given an price estimate, and its really frustrating how slow the other side has been though THEY ENTIRELY LOST MY PATTERN FILES :((( Its not a huge deal but it really pushed back the time on prototypes for all 3 to be shipped at once to save on shipping.
I'll be doing (1) solo event, but we will have this week and a bit of next week, to work on shipping I will be returning on the 22nd and we will be taking every available day to complete as much shipping as humanely possible between the 2 of us
Seriously I can't say this enough, Thank you.. Thank you so so much for your patience this is unacceptable from our side and hope for smaller campaigns to speed things up in the future
Some of the pins arrived for this campaign, but instead of 2-3 inches they are smaller at 1.5 - 1.75..
I will NOT be able to get a Free remake for these so I'll have to unfortunately pay out of pocket.. I'll be trying to sell the smaller ones at shows at a discount to make back the costs.
I'll have to attempt to get all the items together since the whole office is being re-done during our 6 week convention marathon, but I'll try my best to start fulfillment if possible. Keyword "If" since there is not much time between events until the events are over (late Sept) we are going to be completely busy.
I apologies for the delay but wanted to be transparent about things, The Glorp remake is also till in "talking/sample" stages for new colors but also is along with the Jackalope & Jersey Devil from my Cryptid campaign
Will be how you choose which variant/ Color to get
PLEASE USE YOUR BACKERKIT INFO!
As I'll have to create groupings using your Backerkit Info to change/Modify which glorp you will get!
ALL SURVEYS WILL HAVE A DEADLINE OF 7/31/2026
ANY WHO HAVE NOT ANSWERED POST-SURVEY WILL GET A DARK GREEN BY DEFAULT!
They will be BOTH the same size as the current V2 darker Glorp!

General Update
- Phone Charms arrived (yay this was the backer freebie) - Pins are still in the spec sheet stage, due to miscommunications but pins are also being produced at the same time Glorp peek (twinkles from the eyes are missing :(( ) I'm sorry I don't have much more, If I learn the segment system and make sure I got enough of the non pins merch to fulfill some orders,then I'll be able to send out some.
I'm so sorry for the slow as heck updates, Just been highly over budget for this as now (as y'all know several THOUSAND) they gave me a WRONG quote on one of the pins meaning its $300 more than what was quoted just this week...
I'm really trying my best, and learnt way too much but wish that this could've been fully fulfilled already.. I deeply apologize. I'm going to try to raise some funds for this that may be leftover from my new MINI paw campaign that will start around the 20th -22nd
This is not to avoid fulfillment, but will help with getting the additional funds needed, by both companies mis-quotes and mistakes that I unfortunately have to pay the price for even after internal negotiations. It's been a long and frustrating process, but know that even if there are not updates here that I'm working on this as much as possible and when I get updates even at like 3am I'm responding there and then to the companies I've been working with.
Thank you again, this has been extremely stressful as I want to give you all your rewards that you've all supported for. This waiting for fulfillment has been completely unacceptable to my standards. I'm deeply sorry for this and accept accountability to you all for the initial mistakes of not calculating good enough and should've been expecting the tariffs and should've accounted for that.
I hope again to fulfill at least some of the orders soon if I'm able.
