Hello friends! Things are still chugging along, let’s make an update for what’s happened in the last month!
Plush Samples
Pocketcat is one update away from being perfected! We just need to change the orientation of his arms back to the original.
Kalev’s first sample is done. His full production has been paid for now, and we’re going to be making him brown. Otherwise, no more changes to the design.
Moonless is still… struggling, but she’s definitely getting there. I expect needing one more update to perfect the design. I’m going to change the mane colour to the same one used on her tail, make her teeth more rounded and change the body material so the paws aren’t as different.
Pins
The mini Moonless and Pocketcats are in full production and are being filled with colour.
The cross collab pins have finished colouring and sanding and are now waiting for electroplating!
Tariffs
As many people know, the USA currently has an 145% tariff on Chinese goods, which has been a problem for lots of creators I know. I’ve had a few people ask if it will affect this campaign - for now, the answer is no.
I’m based in the UK and my plushies are being sent from here, so there should be no tariff charged to any of you in the US. Currently UK goods are being charged at 10%, but your pledges come under the ‘de minimis’ exception which excludes goods under $800 from being tariffed.
I know this has caused a lot of anxiety for people, so I hope to assure you guys that as of now you won’t be affected. I’m keeping an eye on the situation and will keep you informed if there are any changes.
That’s all the updates I have for now. Thank you guys for your patience while I’m sorting production out!
Edits have went out for the second sample. These changes arent 100% concrete but I'll ask for your guys preference when the next sample comes out.
Freebie pins are also complete.
By the way, I've opened a Discord server to keep smaller updates like progress shots, wips and new merch, and feedback/suggestions, so if you're interested, you can take a look here! You'll be able to see progress shots for the plush as soon as I get them instead of waiting for enough content for an update!
I received the new Pocketcat sample pictures today.
It’s definitely looking better but I think the legs could be thicker, and his eye placement needs fixed and features shifted down on the face.
I’m asking you guys for your opinions before we move onto the second revision of the sample. Please comment any thoughts you have!
Re: the buttons, sadly the way they were affixed in the first sample was not high quality. They were very easily pulled out, so we’re currently working on a way to either attach them securely or replace them with another material.
The new Kalev sample is here too. They’ve added the cheek fur and chin fluff, but not yet the new colours. The shape of this plush won’t be changed anymore.
Otherwise, pins are progressing. Here are some of the blanks:
The freebie pin has only had the glowing portion filled in yet but is looking fantastic.
Coins are already complete.
Thank you for your patience and support 💖 Princefizz Art
Hi there friends! Today I received the first sample of the plush Kalev keychain!
He's honestly looking perfect for a first pass 😭 I'm so happy with him! the changes being made for the next sample are: - Brown fur - Body fur being longer - Eyebrows being made of actual fur - Long fur on cheeks
Here are the edits I sent my manufacturer:
In other news, Pocketcat's pre-production sample and Moonless' final sample are still in the works. I'll be making another update when they're finalised.
Pins + coins have had their design drafts approved and are now in production!
And keychains + standees are complete and should be arriving in the next few days.
Thank you for your support! I'll be updating again when the next sample is complete <3
Exciting news~ production for Pocketcat has been paid for and has officially started!
payment for the first round of pocketcats
Right now, only Pocketcat has started production as we're still waiting on the final samples for Moonless and Kalev.
The first step is the pre-production sample, where we'll be fixing anythings that needed fixing on the original plush - changing the face embroidery to applique, and thickening up the legs :) I'll be sure to show you guys when it's complete! I've also paid for the production of enamel pins and coins! Here are the final designs for everything <3 (pantone colours may not be accurate and have differences from screen to product)
