Hey all, So I don't have an update yet on the accessories since the last update unfortunately, the manufacturing team went to Essen Spiel, a large tabletop convention in Germany, so Im hoping to get updates on that stuff when they get back.
Buut..I did get a package from them this week, and it contained the "purple" and mossy owlbear. and a keychain of each. Mossy looks fine and color matches pretty perfectly with the current production version of the plush. They keychains of the colors are nice, not sure if we're going to be producing them, cause i didnt ask for them, but they're an interesting option to have for the plush colors they product.
But...the "purple".
This is what i got, Now this is very Fuchsia, like anime levels of neon. Now I don't hate it, but it was not what i was expecting, since they were to match the more royal purple color I going for.
At this point, with how things are going, I'm pretty much going to for sure go with an additional manufacturer to produce more plushes, and get a restock going.. so we could include the Fuchsia in this production, i have submitted a color request for them to try and match the purple of the dice/other owlbear, but knowing how long things take ....i might want to just take the credit from this purple owlbear and go to a new manufacturer.
Speaking of which, I've been getting samples of the owlbear from other plush manufacturers, given how much chaos this has been, and I've seen an available swatch that should more closely resemble the royal purple I was looking for. I am keen to get production going, so a smaller order of owlbears (as a general restock for us, and to include the purple is a possibility). On their swatch card is this purple, id have to ask to get a sample, but curious what people think about which colors to go with...cause i think for sure ill be doing a small order of brown/snowy owlbears from them as part of our general restock. BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK (since you're the ones ultimately getting them) USE THIS FORM - https://forms.gle/Ei1QpSRmnU4CvWYc6
So yeah, thats where we're at ATM.... Sorry again for the dealys, I should have another update to answer the questions I have after the manufacturer gets back from Essen Spiele. Thanks for your patience, Andreas
