Project Update: Smoke tests are out. Check your cards!
Hey everyone! I'm trying to keep things moving along since I am about to be head down fully in nothing but Big Brew Bash fulfillment, so I've already gotten everything put together for surveys and have sent out smoke tests. If you receive one and encounter any problems please let me know right away! I'll get on fixing it, and it will be a big help to the fellow backers coming after you.
Due to production timelines, there will not be a pre-order store for this campaign. Pre-orders will become available on lairbrew.com once we are far enough along and surveys have been mostly completed.
A collaboration here on Backerkit that I am participating in, Tributes, finally has a visible participation list with some teasers. If you're in to enamel pins and nostalgic video games you might find something to love there. My project will be Jiggy Jam! It will feature some combining sets as well as some blind bag mini pins.

Time for me to return to the werewolf stuffing mines, but one last thing:
There are a LOT of failed card payments.
$7,000 worth of card payments failed. That is a BIG chunk of our funding and money I am absolutely going to need to be able to deliver on every promise in a timely fashion. If you are not absolutely certain your card was charged successfully please consider checking up on it! I budgeted with a cushion, but not a "7k gone is no big deal" size one, so I must humbly request card failures be resolved in a timely manner. I'd be extremely grateful and it will help make sure we get to stick to the schedule which is fair for everyone.

Project Update: FINAL HOURS! Sardine pencil bag available, keychain prototype photos!
The campaign is officially ending tomorrow!!! As a recap, so far the trash can, salmon, tuna, and sardine tin bags are unlocked, along with 4 new plush keychains.
I have great news for the sardine bag lovers AND the jurassic haunch lovers. I won't be switching them, but I will be making the sardine bag available immediately! They are now available on the add-ons page and as a backer level. Sardine bag won by such a landslide I decided I could tighten the belt some and get it done.
Our funding has backslid some but I plan to keep the keychains unlocked. It means way less cushion, but we keep popping over and back under. That may change now that we're in the final stretch!
I got shown prototypes for the fish skeleton and sardine keychains! The sardine is getting some work, but the fish skeleton is ready to go.

We're on the road home from NC right now after Bewhiskered. Hi to everyone from the con, and thank you again to those of you who told us you were supporting the project and/or backed the first Carrion Baggage campaign! We'll be getting home late tonight but I will check in as often as I can to help anyone with questions as we start to wind down.

Project Update: The final week approaches! Poll time!
Hey all! Just an update to let everyone know where we're at before I head off to Bewhiskered on Wednesday! We'll have the prototypes with us while we're there by the way, if you're attending.
- Keychains are now $10 for the campaign! See the last update for details
- A sticker version of the return backer pin is available to everyone as an add on
- We're halfway sold out of campaign designated grilled haunch bags in the add-ons
- Final tuna and salmon keychain prototypes arrived and have been approved for manufacturing
- Sardine and fish skeleton keychain prototypes are being worked on, the first draft has not been shared
- Second drafts on both Tinned Chow and Sable Chow are still underway.
Also, folks have been excited for the sardine pencil case! I've attached a poll to decide if I should be shifting any of the goals around to best satisfy folks. The pencil case and the haunch would both have different prices from standard bags (they're less) so they seem like a good point to swap if it is done at all. Please answer if you can, I'd appreciate it!
Here's some quick phone photos to show what we've received! You can see the double keychain attachment for the salmon and tuna, and the width of/hardware on the new straps. These are what have been approved for manufacturing when we reach that point.
I hope your week goes well!

Currently it is set to be the Jurassic Haunch! However, people have been very enthusiastic about the sardine pencil case. Which do you think should be unlocked at 52.5k if we reach it?

Project Update: Final Salmon and Tuna Keychain Prototypes! HUGE Plush Keychain price drop!
Excellent news everyone! Not only are the tuna and salmon plush keychain prototypes done (and EXTREMELY ADORABLE,) I was also able to negotiate a new price for them and my other plush keychains... letting me cut the price in HALF. Plush keychains are now just $10!
If you purchased an add-on or backed for 1 plush keychain, you now have 2 unless you update your order!
This is because I can't edit the price of a purchased item or backed tier. I would have simply lowered the price but that was not an option. If 2 for what was previously the price of 1 does not appeal to you you're able to change your selections. There are now backer tiers for 1, 2, 3, and 4 bags, and 1, 2, 3, and 4 plush keychains! So there are easy options to jump to.
COMPLETE PLUSH KEYCHAIN PROTOTYPES
The tuna, made to match Mako Chow!
The salmon, made to match Bear Chow!
What do you think? I love them, they're so cute! I'm excited to add these to my shop in the future and it will be so nice to have them in-hand soon. Between the 2 I think the salmon is my favorite, so the opposite of the bags for me in this case. Just like the original grilled meat plush keychains, these have the 2 different kinds of attachments so you can choose which you prefer- the sturdier grip of a classic key ring or the easier use of a lobster clasp.
That's all for now! We're officially over 37k which is amazing, thank you all for the support!!
