Surveys soon!
Hi everyone - another short update; I will be sending smoke test surveys at some point this week, which will go out to about 5% of backers to ensure there aren't any snags in...
I also have a teaser page up for my next enamel pin campaign - PASTEL WITCHY that will be a part of a 6-campaign group event with lots of freebies available! Click the image to follow along for updates on launch~
On to the update...
Hello all! I pushed off the order lock date a bit; I just initiated the lock down though and you should receive a warning email about that. I will NOT be charging cards until just before pins ship to me, which isn't likely to be until the end of April or early May.
I've put the pins into production, and received photos of the finished samples that I had made a while back. Those should be arriving to me this week! Skelly and slime are still my favorites 👀 but I love how the translucent over UV print came out!
Thank you all for getting to surveys so quickly - with less than 25 remaining to be filled out, I'm going to put a hard deadline of next Monday before I lock orders so I can get pins into production. Any surveys filled out past this date may not have all pins available as options, since once I place the order, I am unable to change quantities ordered and I need enough to populate the gacha machines fairly.
I will send out one more reminders between now and then.
There were a couple issues I came across or that were brought to my attention while folks were filling out surveys - one was the discord invite link being broken. I had meant to check that prior to sending surveys out and totally spaced on it. CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE FANTASY FOX CREATIONS DISCORD SERVER.
I also didn't add freebie fruit popsicle keychains to everyone's carts when I thought I had - that issues is now fixed. I will be sending a separate google survey out once I have pins in production for you to choose which popsicle(s) you would like. If you add enough pins to hit the 3 or 5 pin mark that entitles you to a freebie after filling out your survey, I will be going through and adding those items to your cart at a later date - so don't worry if you don't see them right away.
Finally, this applies to INTERNATIONAL BACKERS - specifically Australian ones. For some reason shipping was astronomically high compared to last campaign for some folks when it really shouldn't be - I am going to go through and verify shipping cost and make corrections where needed. So if you had an alarmingly high shipping cost, don't worry, I will make adjustments as necessary.
IF YOU ARE IN THE EU: I will be contacting any EU backers separately; due to the new GSPR shipping laws, I will not be able to ship directly to the EU. I haven't been able to verify who that backed me falls in this category yet but will be doing this asap. If you are an EU backer, expect me to reach out via e-mail to decide next steps. The short version of the situation is that I am happy to ship to a friend/relative/shipping service of your choosing so long as they have a non-EU address.
I'm really sorry about this, but the laws were clarified after the campaign started, and as they originally stood, it was pretty clear that folks without a nexus within the EU didn't qualify for enforcement of these rules. That is no longer the case. This also means, going forward, if you would like to support me and pledge to my campaigns, you must have a non-EU address for your items to be shipped to, or you will be unable to pledge.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to reach out here or through e-mail - or, join my facebook or discord for more immediate responses to questions/comments/concerns (along with some other fun perks!!)
As the title says - all surveys are released! I came across a couple issues during smoke tests but I resolved one and will hopefully resolve the other with this update. Info on that will be below the cut :)
As a reminder - ALL pins are available for choosing! I finally got some footage of the samples and they look GREAT! I can't wait to have these in hand so I can show you in more detail how they look :) Theyre still missing the screen printing but I'm so excited thst the translucent enamel worked out just how I envisioned 💖 Once I have them in hand I will take updated photos and share them with you all - it's taking a bit longer this time around I imagine because my factory is still prioritizing full size orders from before CNY.
I've attached a poll regarding Skelly - the chrome green pin with the darker translucent enamel. I'd like people's opinions on if they think it should go LIGHTER (originally said darker, oops) or not.
I think I will be modifying the colors for slime a bit as well, but will determine that once I have the pins in person and can see the colors for myself :)
Hey y'all - I just sent out smoke test surveys to roughly 5% of backers - this will have chosen a variety of pledge levels to send out, so please fill those out ASAP. If you notice anything weird or any errors when filling out that survey, please let me know!
I apologize in advance for the amount of marketing questions in this - I recently created a few spaces for followers of my business to join in on (on Discord and FB) as well as toying with the idea of a QUARTERLY pin club so I can be making pins year round outside of crowdfunding - since you all are the ones who have supported my pin journey the most this last year, I wanted to get basic input for that from you first!
If all goes well with smoke tests, I will be sending out the rest of surveys on MONDAY!! :)
ADDING THIS IN AFTER THE FACT - all pin designs will be available in surveys. I will have to pay out of pocket for some of them even with post-campaign funding, but I was too excited to get these all made to not get them all done. So there will be three gacha machines with pins in them! :) Cross collab pins will NOT be available in gacha machines until after the campaign is fulfilled.
Finally, I will plug my upcoming enamel pin campaign - CLICK HERE or on the image below to follow updates!
