Jackets are here!! Shipping labels have begun!
Holy heck. I don’t even know how to explain what kind of day it was when the jackets came this week. It was definitely way more stress than I thought it would be.
But I wan...
Surveys will be going out on Tuesday!! (Well, assuming they are approved by then. Just submitted the surveys for review!!)
There are a few things to note about the surveys.
Series 1 pocket pals will have limited availability during them. We will be adding our remaining stock!
There are still 3 samples that are not finalized, and so the surveys will NOT lock and charge until said samples are finalized. These samples are - - Tiktalik (who i have yet to receive any phto of. should be next week.) - Rainbow raptor, who we are changing their wings - Apricot Raptor who should be done by wednesday.
Once these samples are finalized I will make another update, and lock surveys 72 hours after they are finalized. You are able to change and edit your pledge during the surveys as well.
We will have limited stock of salmon spino, spino jackets, blankets, and Ita bags during the surveys as well! Please know we wish we could stock more but just due to sheer constraint of space we can only offer what we have space for. We want to try and get a warehouse rather than a few storage units in 2026, so that we are able to offer more in the future! But living in a Rural area it is hard to find any warehouses for rent that are not insanely expensive or overly large. We also need one that hac AC and Heat, since we would pack order in it as well. But rest assured we are doing our best to try and expand to offer more!!
Once surveys are locked, and shipping charged we will begin printing out labels once the boxes arrive. So please do not be alarmed if you receive a tracking number, and it does not update for a long time. We want to work on labeling and sorting the different boxes so that when everything arrives the boxes are all already labeled, and we can just grab boxes and pack. Instead of needing to sort through all the box sizes, find the right size, label it, etc.
This is also to help us avoid losing or missplacing any labels when we have stacks of them to print. Having the labels already attached to their boxes will enable us to work much quicker and more effeciently as well. I will also send another update every time we drop off packages. The goal is to get atleast 1400 out during the first week of packing. As I have invited several friends who are also self employed to help pack from 9am-6pm daily for a week straight to hopefully mitigate the wait time for these orders. Since I know the whole process is delayed compared to where the timeline in the campaign had said we would be by now.
To avoid such a wait we are making all samples from now on before campaigns launch, so that everything is already ready before launching. Meaning we will only need to wait for production time, rather than sample creation as well. (3-4 months rather than 6+ months.) The exception to this is of course things like the jackets or Ita Bags, as they cost more to get samples of and I do not want to start those process unless we have funding for the bulk order of them.
We are also going to be sending out a mass email to all of the custom pal backers on monday as well. To get the ball rolling with that. I really appriciate everyone's support and patience with this campaign!! I am so excited for what the future of pocket pals holds!!
On January 22nd we will be launching Paranormal Pals!! Our cryptid campaign series, and the samples are currently in progress. The plan is to have the first five done by the campaign and the others in progress at the very least since Dinosaurs took a little longer than expected this will be the last campaign that samples are not ALL done before launch. But we do not foresee this slowing production as many have similar body shapes and should be way easier to produce the samples! As compared to the dinosaurs who were vastly different from each one!
And please consider joining the telegram community as well!! It has already been a huge hit with almost 100 members joining now!! There is all kinds of different topic conversation tabs, photo sharing area, and more!!
https://t.me/pocketpals/4
And also check out Lock stress monsters!! Our collab partner for the upcoming campaign!! Back both of them and get enamel pins!!
Just heard from my manufacterer that all samples will finally be finished as of next weekend!!
Which means surveys will be going out!! No worries as bulk order for them have already been placed and as soon as remaining samples are finalized then those bulk orders will be in progress!!
We also finalized parasaurolophus!
Several are already partly through production as well. And the oversized plush have already been finished and about to be sent out!!
Jackets and ita bags arrive around the end of December/first week of January!! Thanks to some delays in shipping they are running a little late. But all backerkit orders will still be sent out to you guys by the end of January!!
Next weekend we will be reaching out to all of the custom order people as well to begin design work on those!! We will also have photos of finished cryptid samples by the end of December too, just in time for our launch on January 22 for series 3!!
Also make sure to check out the community group on telegram!! It’s been so fun chatting with everyone who’s already joined, we’ve been voting on colors for cryptids as well as brainstorming some future things there!! Even possibly warmable prehistoric pals to be added in the surveys, limited number will be available. But they are a possibility! Waiting on details to fully decide!!
Except for parasaurolophus, the colors will be changing for them and they will be made a tiny bit chunkier but overall are done! Will just be way less saturated pink because oh my it’s too bright haha.
Fixed carnotaurus’s arm too! And they are getting slightly lighter red eyes!
We are only waiting on -tiktalik -final stego -rainbow raptor -apricot raptor
And then surveys will go out!! Rainbow raptor just needs his wings fixed is all we are waiting on. Apricot was way off and is being heavily edited. Stego just needs bigger spikes!
And tiktalik I haven’t gotten anything for yet, so getting worried they forgot about it. I sent them a message about the little guy!
We got some more samples incoming guys!! Only a couple left to finish up and I am beyond excited!!
We are still waiting on -rainbow raptor (embroidery being done) -apricot raptor(final sample coming Monday) -dire wolf (final sample coming Monday) -tiktalik (having issues with shapes) -parasaurolophus (final sample coming Monday) -variants (final samples next Thursday)
But now we have these ones done! (Or mostly done with edits being made!)
(The underside of his arm is becoming blue so it’s not just the top!)
Perfectly baked nugget
Edits being made to their legs, eyes, back and back spikes! Just small edits to make them chunkier boy!
This one just needs his mouth added! They forgot it haha
And I also got the large mosasaur sample in to my arms. And I have to say i absolutely love it. Definitely a hefty boy! We will have a few of each oversized plush left during surveys to snatch up!
Once the samples are all finalized then I will be reaching out to the custom backers! We wanted to make sure all samples were finalized and shapes done before beginning the custom designs!
We also will begin the work on the Cryptid samples as well! The first three being done will be mini moth man, Nessie, and the Hodag!
