At long last the Cryptid Crushes have left the factory! All several thousand of them are en route as of last week, and are expected to arrive at the warehouse in the next 25-30 days.
'Why so long?' you may be thinking, and the answer is that sea freight is slooooow! Unfortunately, with well over 100 boxes to ship, traveling by sea is also the most economical option and why 99% of people in my position choose it.
While I'm thrilled they're finally on the move, this development comes with a bit of bittersweet news because my supplier made a rather large error when producing the Classic Werewolf. Instead of the finalized version, they made an earlier version with red eyes.
At first I was devastated for obvious reasons, but thankfully we did come up with a solution that means their hard work won't go to waste, and I receive the correct Classic Werewolf as well. What's more, this mistake shouldn't slow things down too terribly. V1 is in production now and should ship out in the next two weeks. If they ship them by air this will allow everything to reach the warehouse at roughly the same time π€
Now this also means I have an extra several hundred werewolf plushies I wasn't counting on! And I know some of you preferred V2 over V1, so if you pledged for the Classic Werewolf I would like to offer you the opportunity to sub your V1 wolf for the V2 wolf.
βΌοΈBy default, if you pledged for the Classic Werewolf you will receive the plush you paid for, but if you would like to receive the red-eyed wolf instead PLEASE FILL OUT THIS GOOGLE FORM:https://forms.gle/ELVxXTbF2zSPfQSC6 βΌοΈ
You have until February 16th to let me know you would like to make the swap. After that date I cannot guarantee your form will be seen.
I believe that's all for now critters! With fulfillment on the horizon addresses will be locking in the next two weeks, so keep an eye on your inbox for that lock notification. I'll be back with another backerkit update at that time as well! π
