Project FAQ
I have been asked why I did not make Wyll, Melinoe, Shadowheart etc. The purpose of this project is not to represent all characters from Hades and/or Baldur's Gate. I am simply making my two favorite characters from Hades (Zagreus, Thanatos) and from BG3 (Astarion, Halsin) plus a couple of my friend's faves (Gale, Hypnos). I do not position myself as a merch artist trying to represent the entire cast, and this is just a passion project. Please check out my social media, and you may understand why these six characters were chosen over other characters. I would love to make more characters but each sample plush is 200$ and unfortunately finances wise I cannot make everyone I'd like.
I set the campaign goal at 4,500$ as a way to better ensure a successful outcome to the project. Making Gale, Halsin and Hypnos stretch goals better ensures we will have enough funds to get started on production. Of course my hope is we can fund all of them, but in the case we don't quite make it on the higher stretch goals I will self fund those out of my personal savings.
If all goes smoothly, I plan to ship rewards May - June 2026. If my manufacturer needs to remake plushies or there are delays, this may push this target back. Please check out my estimated timeline in the "Timeline" section of the campaign page.
Items shipped within the US can take between 4-7 days to arrive after it's been shipped. International orders can take between 2-7 weeks to arrive, depending on how fast your customs processes packages. Please note that once a package has left our office that we know as much about it as you do. If you package has not arrived after seven weeks, please contact me.
I will not offer refunds. The funds from this project will be used to produce the Plushies, bag straps, stickers, prints etc. If you'd like to cancel your pledge, please do so before the campaign ends
This is a possibility! After all rewards are fulfilled, and any damaged/lost shipments are taken care of, leftover Plushies will be available for purchase online. However, I can't guarantee how many of each design will be available, more popular designs may not have many left overs. Backing the Video Game Husband Plushies campaign is your best bet on receiving the Plushies you want. I'll be sure to update backers when and where remaining rewards are available for purchase!
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
