Hello backers! Kom has a sample done and we need to decide if we should change the hair material.
⚠️ Do note that I have requested changes to the hairline so the forehead is less big, along with an eyebrow color to match the hair for the next- hopefully final sample. Here is a video of the current version:
An issue with Kom's current hair type is that the white material they printed on is very visible, so we have a few options.
A. Keep the hair material as is, despite the white. It allows for the hair to be thicker and with a gradient
B. Switch to a thin material so white does not show as much. Allows for gradient but it will be a lot thinner and less fluffy than the other dolls. May cause top hair to be floppy C. Do solid pieces of hair material rather than a gradient, this will cause a decent amount of solid embroidery due to fur limitations, which will be noticeable.Will take the most time to redo
I have been told a lot of samples are finishing up soon, so I should be able to share a larger update then! Until then, please vote below
Hello all, Sym has arrived along with doll shoes and Seraphic hoodies! This means I now have the stock to fufill 4 orders that include outfits I already have on-hand or no outfits plus Dys/Sym only. Once the rest of the outfits arrive, I can fufill a few further orders, but we will of course have to wait for the big batch of the rest of the plushies for most!
Hello all, I have very exciting news! This Thursday the 13th, there will be an I Was a Teenage Exocolonist Developer AMA on the Finji Discord Server and they're kind enough to host a giveaway of multiple plush dolls (Including outfits) from this campaign for those in the USA and Canada!! So make sure to stop by and check it out!
Hello Backers! You may have noticed the original timeline states that dolls were supposed to be sent from the manufacturer last month, but unfortunately this is not the case. Translating a 2d piece to 3d has has its miscommunications with incorrect looking samples as a result. It is taking longer than expected to fix these mistakes and redo them, and I want to deliver the best possible plushies to you, so we have to delay.
Here is the current status:
In stock: Dys, all adoption certificates, most add-ons
On its way to me: Sym, Outfits
Mass production: Utopia, Vriki coin pouches
Sample dolls going through fixes: Cal, Marz, NB!Sol, Vace
Sample doll being made: Kom, F!Sol, M!Sol, Tammy, Nougat, Nomi, Tang, Nem, Rex
Some of the dolls going through fixes have not been shared because either a. The fix is so minor we might as well wait to share the finished piece or b. It needs a lot of fixing and does not look very good at this stage due to hair complexity
Based on this current status, I'm hoping sample production is only around 2 more months. Then, mass production will take 1 month, and shipping will also be a month to be safe. This brings us to me recieving the dolls in December, and I will of course be doing my best to ship them all out ASAP. This does bring up an issue where for the Holiday time period shipping prices do increase. So it may be better to ship in January due to that, what are your thoughts?
Thank you for being patient to recieve your dolls!
Ps. Didn't get all the dolls you want? You may want to join the official Finji Discord server for an event starting Monday 👀
Hey EU backers, There are new regulations being implemented on the 12th requiring an up-front fee of Representative and Registration per individual Member State just for the right to ship there- adding up to a loooot of money with no exceptions for small businesses in place. I'm really hoping they'll figure out they need limitations to this requirement as I hate being unable to ship to some people just because of where they live- it's unfair. Worst case if it does come to shipping time and this regulation is the same I'll reach out to everyone with a preorder going to the EU to discuss if you can switch to a Proxy or need to cancel your order. If you are in the EU keeping updated on this, I would appreciate your thoughts.
