Update #17: Items are Starting to Arrive!
Hello, everyone!!
As we near April, things are starting to come in! So far, the sticker sheets, thank you cards, magnets, and pin backing cards are here. The medicine boxes ...
Just a quick update to say I am still working on fulfillment for the campaign, for pledges not containing Latt-Ray. This stage is going slower than I'd hoped, but it's going! Everyone will receive an email with tracking information when their pledge ships out. If you have not received a shipping email at this point, I ask for you to wait until I post another update soon stating I'm done with this stage of fulfillment - thank you!!
Latt-Ray Bags
I received word from my manufacturer the bags should finish within the next week. I am currently unsure how long it will take for them to quality check then ship to me when they are done, but I am crossing my fingers they get to me by Mid-June so all of fulfillment can be finished by the end of June. In terms of production, these bags in particular have been affected by the backload of work my manufacturer has been facing regarding the global trade uncertainties, so I really thank you for your patience, as my manufacturer has been thanking me for my patience.
As mentioned in my last update, this is the week I am beginning fulfillment! 🎉🎉🎉 As such, here are a few reminders/updates:
I will be locking addresses with a final notice of 48 hours on May 1st (Thursday). When you receive that email, you will have 48 hours to follow the link and update your address if your address has changed since you first completed the survey. You can also do it before then by accessing your prior completed survey. If there is an update needed after that time, you can email an email with your Backerkit information to [email protected] and we will assist (so long as the rewards have not already been shipped!).
I had charged cards back when the surveys were completed, but there are still some that have not been charged/recharged due to error or later survey completion. As such, I will be charging these remaining cards for shipping/add-ons on May 1st (Thursday).
Reminder that the rewards and preorders that will be fulfilled first are the ones that do not contain the Latt-ray plush. These guys are still in production, and I currently estimate the earliest those rewards will be shipped will by late May-early June. Thank you so so much for your patience.
To end this post, I wanted to share pictures of items that came in the last few weeks that I hadn't shared yet! The enamel pins, lanyards, and collab-exclusive freebie pouch <3

Hello all!! A quick update today is to share that the main 4 plush bags (so not including latt-ray) from the campaign were delivered to me (and look BEAUTIFUL), and to go over the upcoming fulfillment timeline.
Matcha, rye-sopod, breb, pancake are here!
-I have two back to back cons over the next two weekends and I will be out of state for most of that time, so initial fulfillment/quality checking will begin late April. Folks without latt-ray bags should begin seeing their orders shipped with a tracking number in early May. It may take me a few weeks to complete fulfillment. - I will send another update when I’m about to lock addresses - be sure to update your addresses (you can do this through your original survey link) if you’ve moved since the campaign (october). - Latt-ray backers - these guys are still in production. It’s looking more and more like the earliest I’ll be able to send out your pledges is June, but I will of course keep you updated.
I am just so relieved these guys are here. 😮💨 While there was never a problem with my manufacturer or a doubt about the quality of the bags, there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes for the large plush order that has had me stressed out (huge delays in manufacturing impacted by the anticipation around usa’s proposed tariffs on imports, delays at port, and risk of huge tariffs) that had resulted from my apparent unlucky timing of this project. But there’s never a GOOD TIME to do anything when having a small business, so I really just want to thank everyone for being kind, patient, and supportive with this whole project. It’s really helped me a lot. ;o; 💚
Have a great rest of your weekend and start to your week!! Nicole
Hello everyone! Hope you're doing okay! (All the following pictures are from my manufacturer!)
Stack of boxes on their way to me!
I wanted to give the update that if everything goes well, fulfillment should still begin when planned, at the end of April. I do have some out of town events in April, and there is always a possibility of shipping delays, so I will keep you updated. The Latt-ray plush bag production is not yet finished so those orders will be fulfilled at the earliest in late May, but otherwise, everything is either on it's way to me (Breb, Rye-sopod, Matcha, Pancake plush), about to ship to me (pins, lanyards, crossover pouches), or already with me (everything else). Here are some pics of the guys being packed up!
Rye-sopods all packed up!
Brebs all packed up!
Matchas all packed up!
Pancakes all packed up!
Before the plush were shipped, I went through every detail of the finished plush with my contact person (mostly through videos) to ensure the plush were looking good. And the good news is that they all look wonderful! The only slight change was that Matcha's hardware is silver-colored, not gold-colored as I'd received in my sample (meaning the metal parts of matcha's backpack straps). For my vision of Matcha, I didn't have a 'canon' hardware color, but I did want to let you all know in case you had noticed gold-colored ones on the sample! Here are some pics of finished goods I received in this confirmation process!

Thank you all so much for your patience, as always! Next update will happen when more goods arrive :3 Nicole
PS If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to [email protected] as I often miss comments on these updates.
The Breb coin pouch, Pancake medicine box holder, Rye-sopod passcase, and Matcha bag are done!! Early next week, my contact will be going through and quality checking the plush and will be sending me pictures (that I will share with you), so if all goes well, the plush should begin their journey to me next week!
This means, based upon prior shipping times from my experience with this company, the plush should ideally get to me next month. I will let you know if there are any delays! :) I expect everything else that hasn't already arrived will be to me soon as well (besides the Latt-ray plush bag that needs more time)!
As mentioned, my contact will be sending pictures next week, so I don't have a lot of pics right now, but here's a picture of some Rye-sopod as they were finishing up! They were looking good <3 Thank you all so much for your patience!! SO excited to hopefully be getting these out to you soon (next month)! Nicole
