Pin Grading
Hello backers, I have another update for you all: the pins have arrived and I am in the process of grading them. I will send another update with photos once all the pins are graded. You can find my pin grading policy in my About Page/FAQ. For now, I've posted videos on Instagram, TikTok, and Tumblr showing them in action. Pin grading entails sorting each item as standard (one or two minor flaws) or seconds (more noticeable flaws). All campaign backers will receive standard grade pins. If there are serious issues with any of the items I will let you all know.

While you're waiting, now is a great time to review your survey to make sure your address and payment information is correct. If you lost your survey, you can recover it here. Once I have the items graded, I will send an update with photos, and surveys will be unlocked for 48 hours if you’d like to make any last-minute changes to your selections. Just a reminder: if you change your selections at this time, and there are an insufficient number of items to cover your new selections, your pledge may be delayed further. I saw some other Pintopia creators mention there may be an issue with backers who were eligible for the event freebies not having them in their orders. Please be sure to double-check your survey before orders ship out to make sure no items are missing. If you have any issues with your survey or other concerns: please contact Backerkit support or submit a question via the FAQ. 

Shipping

Just a reminder that you will be charged for shipping, right before items ship out. Shipping is flat rate, here are the rates:
  • United States $6
  • Mexico $18
  • Canada $18
  • Australia $21
  • UK $20
  • All other countries $21

As for the plushies, they should be arriving soon. Thank you all very much for your patience, and I hope you all love your pins and plushies once you receive them. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments.

Forgotten Fables Launch
Hello angel enthusiasts, my new campaign Forgotten Fables is launching next week on June 16. This campaign features designs inspired by lesser known fairytales. You can vote on and suggest more fairytales to add in this post; and also vote on stretch goals in this poll.


Forgotten Fables is partnered with Fairy Tales Enamel Pins if you pledge to both campaigns you'll receive exclusive Crane Wife pins. Both campaigns are also part of Pin Quest, be sure to check out the other campaigns if you're in the market for fabulous pins. If you pledge to three or more campaigns including Forgotten Fables, you'll receive a bonus freebie mini book pin.


I wanted to give you all assurance that I am committed to fulfilling Sammy the Sundog Plush first and foremost. Usually I like to completely wrap up one campaign before launching another but the production and shipping times has been slower than usual so there is a little overlap. I anticipate this campaign to overlap only with the funding and survey stage of Forgotten Fables, so it should not conflict with fulfillment. If you've pledged to my previous campaigns, you'll know this sort of overlap has happened before but hasn't caused any issues. 

If the Forgotten Fables campaign sounds interesting to you I hope you'll consider pledging. But I understand if you prefer to wait for this campaign's items first before pledging. If you miss the Forgotten Fables campaign, just like with this campaign there will be a post-campaign preorder store. If you have any questions or concerns you can leave them in the comments. Thanks for your support and patience!

Item Previews: Stickers
Hello backers and followers, the stickers have arrived. Below you can find photos of them. I have also posted videos on Instagram, TikTok, and Tumblr showing them in action.


I made some Iron Lung stickers, if you preordered all three Iron Lung pins before March 1 you'll receive these stickers for free! Extras will be available in the addons section once surveys reopen, before items ship.


Status of other items:
  • Pins are still in production. It's taking much longer than usual for pin production but maybe this is the new norm. If I don't hear from my manufacturer again by June I'll request another status update from them.
  • Plushies are on the way! Below are some photos of the plushies with corrected embroidery colors. They are shipping via sea so will take about three more weeks to arrive.
  • If you missed the update, keychains have already arrived.


That's all for this update, stay tuned for more and let me know if you have any questions.

Item Previews: Pins
Hello backers and followers, the manufacturer sent me photos of some of the pins which I've shared below.  I'll be sure to share nice photos of all the pins once I have them in-hand.


If you're a backer who is curious about pin manufacturing, you can check out the backers-only section for an explanation. That's all for this update. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Item Previews: Keychains
Hello backers and followers, the keychains have arrived. Below you can find photos of them. I have also posted videos on Instagram, TikTok, and Tumblr showing them in action.


A little note about the keychains: they will have a film you need to peel off, I'll share another reminder when they ship out.

As for the stickers, plushies, and pins:
  • Stickers are still in production, ETA on them is another 2-3 weeks.
  • You may remember the plushies looked like they had the wrong eye color in the previous update. It turns out the manufacturer did make a mistake with the embroidery colors, and these are being redone.
  • Pins are still in production, last I heard from the manufacturer the enamel fill is in progress for the new designs, and all the recolored designs are finished. 

We're still on track to ship in June provided there's no major shipping delays once those items are done. If the plushies are further delayed I plan to send out pin-only orders first instead of waiting until the plushies arrive. 

That's all for this update, stay tuned for more and let me know if you have any questions.

Item Previews: Plushies
Hello backers and followers, I finally heard back from the plush manufacturer! Here are photos from them.


These are the only photos I've received, and the manufacturer said they want to ship the plushies soon. However I noticed the eye color doesn't quite match the sample, so I've reached out to the manufacturer for more photos, hopefully it's just the lighting but I'll keep you all updated on any developments.

In the meantime if you're curious, I included a write up of the prototyping process with photos in the backers-only section. Let me know if you have any questions, this is my very first plush so it was definitely a learning experience. That's all for this update. Have a wonderful rest of your day!
