Here's a production update we've owed you for a long time. We thought we'd have good news soon, but it took a while, and it wasn't as good as we'd hoped, so we figured we could wait a little longer before sharing the good news — but one thing led to another, and two months went by. We sincerely apologize for that. Here is what happened these last two months.
Nobi Nobi Cyberpunk and Steampunk Production complete.
Treasure Box In our last update, we were quite confident about our mass production sample, based on the digital sample we validated. Unfortunately, the production encountered unexpected delays, without news from manufacturer. We eventually got an update: the manufacturer reported that it had encountered a quality issue with a batch of cards, which it had to destroy and reprint. This issue resulted in an additional delay of nearly three weeks. Finally, we received a mass production sample. We carefully inspected it, and everything was fine... EXCEPT for the character cards. We were very disappointed and alarmed by this problem. We reported these issues and concerned to the manufacturer and had to discuss with them to find a solution. This took time, but we eventually a process that will allow to get the quality target for these premium cards. The new print run is complete, and we are waiting for a new production sample to confirm that everything is in order in the coming days. We're arranging for the fastest possible shipping to our fulfillment hubs. We'll post a new update next week, in which we hope to announce that production has been successfully completed and that we will be able to begin shipping, along with specific schedule details.
Thank you for your support and patience.
