Hey guys, Sorry this update is a bit late! I'm happy to say that all Surveys have been reviewed by Backerkit and sent out to you all! Please make sure to fill them out and send them in. These are only for locking in plush and other good quantities, not shipping! Shipping will be for a separate survey! You can also add an add-on to your order, like the plush pouch, if you want. Plus Many More!!
And for our next big news, sample production is underway. It will be around 10 days until I receive the first sample photos. Those will be of Sweet Star. I hope you guys are excited for that, and below is proof of the order! The five items are the plushies, but also the Egg Pouch.
As always, thanks, guys, and I hope you all are as excited as I am!
Hi guys, I know I posted an update yesterday, but as a special treat for you guys, I wanted to update you all on Nightmares Star Card Art. I know their card art has been really anticipated for you all, and I'm happy to say I finally got the sketch for it done. Enough of the chit chat, here it is!: I hope you all like the sketch! I wanted him to have a very chaotic look to himself. Like one big trouble maker, here to bring your biggest nightmares to life!
Hi guys, I wanted to give a quick update on how things are progressing!
Right now, surveys are under review over at Backerkit! If they get approved, then you should all be receiving the surveys in a few more days! These surveys do not include shipping; those will be available in a later survey when items are closer to shipping out. For now, these surveys will allow you to customize which Baby Star Plush and any other accessories you like. They also include options to add on other items like the egg pouch and Keycharm.
On the other side of things, I've updated the keycharm designs! I always considered the ones on the Backerkit page as placeholders. So here are the updated designs to reflect the most recent items in my shop. I hope you guys like them! Along with that, I'm hard at work with other things, such as Nightmares Star Card Art and making sure production happens on time.
Now onto production!!! With how everything is going, production for the plushies is set to start at the beginning of April. This first includes the production of samples for the rest of the babies, then onto mass production. April is when I should receive most of the funds. As a reminder, we have around $700 in failed backing. That's a lot to lose for production, so just make sure you guys are updating payments and stuff.
Other than that, everything's going smoothly, and once the first samples are made, mass production for the rest can start. For other things like the collectors' cards and keychains, those are being handled by a different company, so I should have physicals of them sooner!
I hope you guys like the update. Again, any questions pls put them below, and I'll answer them as quickly as I can. As always, thanks guys and lots of Love!
Hi guys sorry this post I’ve been super busy with work and many other responsibilities.
But as most on you know the Baby Star Backerkit ended yesterday night. We ended with a total of $4,881 from 112 backers. I wanted to thank you all from the bottom of me heart. I never expected in a million years to reach this goal!
This post is just to lay the foundation for what’s next, including production, what future updates will consist off, and any other important information that you backers should know about.
Also in you guys have any questions please don’t be scared to ask below!
What Am I Working On Now? Along with getting production underway, I’ll be finishing up the last card Art for Nightmare Star. I’m also working hard on getting the surveys done and out to you guys asap. I’m still new to making a survey so please work with me on this haha.
What will future updates consist of? Future updates will consist of a lot of things but mainly getting feedback on samples for the other babies, production updates, any delays, shipping stuff, ect, ect.
Other Important Info. Just as a reminder, shipping will be charged after the campaign and when items are ready to ship.
Also the future of Sad Star. I know Sady captured the hearts of many of you, myself included, and I know it was disappointing for them not to get unlocked. But I do have plans for this little Star and maybe others? That’s all I can say for now, but do rest assured Sad Star is far from forgotten!
To end this off I know we sadly didn’t make it to the last goal, so the extra money will go back into production and be extra safe money in case any issues arise.
And that’s basically it, sorry if this update seems rushed since I am making it away from home. But due know that I am truly grateful and again thank you all so much!!!
I can't believe it, but since we reached 4k, we were able to unlock the holding Pouch!! I've updated the BackerKit page to show it as unlocked!
For those that don't know, here's the Holding Pouch: The holding pouch will be a fabric pouch that will have a clear vinyl window and a zipper in the back. I conceptualized it as a way for people to carry their Baby Star with them, without the fear that it might get damaged or dirty on the go. You can hang it on a handbag or backpack, but my personal favorite is on pants. Yeah pants.
I have to ask my manufacturer for pricing, but I'm hoping to have the price for them set at $10-$15. I hope you all like the update, and as always, thanks, guys!
