Took just under a week, but it's been done! WLCW's Pilot is officially FUNDED! THANK YOU!! to the 383 backers who made it possible! I'm genuinely a bit shocked as to how many people backed the higher tiers, but I'm glad there seems to be a dedicated audience who really wants to see this series get made. I want to do this series justice, and you guys really made it possible.
For anybody who backed the End of History tier, we'll be reaching out to y'all once the campaign ends, but tentatively we are aiming for a February 2027 screening date. While artbooks and Blu-Rays will likely ship out in Spring 2027. Digital rewards including the artbook draft and of course, the animations, are to fulfilled in December 2026 to January 2027. Any delays to this schedule will be communicated ahead of time.

As for people who've already backed, you will be charged when the campaign ends on July 11th, so that MIGHT be a while but make sure your payment methods are all up to date so the pledges don't fall through.

We've also been working really hard on a couple of new teasers and promo for Season 1, unfortunately things have been delayed a bit just because I underestimated just how hard it would be to rush out more promo for the series on short notice, but now that we're funded, we're gonna be aiming for those stretch goals! We've still got 42 days left to go to hit those stretch goals, I'm still planning a ton of stuff that's being worked on until the last stretch, July 4th is when we plan to have the first part of the Pilot done and ready to go, but we're also aiming to finish a couple of character reveals and VA reveals before then. Likewise, we're trying to keep a brisk pace and not burn out too hard, so please stay tuned! And thank you for supporting We Love Cold War!!
See you soon! -Nico
