The results of your Design Some Goodies robot choices are underway!!
Tag, you're fox!
Play certainly isn't within these units' intended range of functionality, but the Short Circuit robots all run a bit contrary to their intended designs in delightful ways -- it looks like Malware and Mozzy learned the importance of fun for its own sake, and are engaged in a rousing game of tag!
The above design will be inked and colored in the same visual style as the Hash & Heap and Byte & Python illustrations, and will be a choice available for both transparent vinyl stickers and acrylic magnets from the add-on section.
So many new shinies to add to your pledge!
General reminder of ALL the new options on offer in there, since I know items added later in the campaign wind up with less overall visibility!
Moving right along to where our funding's at: the Northern Lights colorway goal has been firmly unlocked--
Dazzling new friends~
--meaning ALL pins and stickers presented in the entire campaign are now unlockedand available, including Python reprints!
If you missed these before, they will now be reprinted as needed to fulfill this campaign!!
The ONLY design presented that still needs brought online is Python's plush. Otherwise if you were waiting to confirm a particular item would make it through, rest assured all choices are secured!
Which brings us to our last update: based on your responses to the Python interest poll, I have lowered the goal for their plush from 23k to 21k. If we blow away all expectations in the next couple days, maybe we'll get there! - though realistically, I'll likely be setting them up as a "purchase to unlock" item in the add-ons and pre-order store, as mentioned in the previous update.
Go go get that noodle! <3
If you haven't chimed in on the poll yet and have genuine interest in acquiring this noodly friend, please do so! To rehash, due to their high unit cost the lowest I can offer Python for is €75 (through Backerkit - their retail price will be €80), so please keep this in mind when responding.
And as we're closing in on the final two days of Pintopia, I'd like to take a minute to highlight a few more artists whose projects might catch your fancy!
If you're here on my campaign, there's a maths% chance you do in fact appreciate a good robot, and Aimee designs absolutely delightful robots. Her Tiny Robots are adorable little board filler units that I really look forward to installing in my collection!
Jordaan, a reconnecting Chickasaw artist, is an excellent person who has designed another round of beautiful critters for Spirits in the Waves. The raccoon and salmon are my personal favorites, but also be sure to peep the ridiculously cool three dimensional bridge detail on his giant octopus pin.
Ken of Challenge Coin Critters draws animals with such an attentive eye for highlighting different species' features and stylizing them into a perfect golden age of animation homage. He's a hard working artist who's also concerned with the durability of his creations as wearable flair rather than display pieces - and with over 60 designs unlocked, there's a creature for everyone in here!
To round off this installment of shout outs, Alesia of Robot Dragon Studios has designed the tooth-achingly adorable Buster Frankencorgi, available through her campaign in a variety of forms: plush, pin, and hairclip. (For folks wanting something smol but still huggable - there's a keychain plush, too!)
Thank you as ever for being here and making our dreams real! Let's see what we can pull off in the last two days!!
--oop, in the time it took me to write this post, it looks like Backerkit's automated 48 hour blasted went off. Apologies for the double inbox presence, hahah. ⏳ Have a great night folks!
