Makeship works a lot like Kickstarter or BackerKit, but it's on their own website. They put up the plushie design for 3 weeks. If enough people pledge to get it, they go ahead and make them and ship them out. Importantly, Makeship have been doing this for 5 years now, and their process is well tested and refined. If you back for the Tower plushie, you'll get it in January. For full disclosure, we get a very modest cut if this is successful, but we really just thought it would be a fun thing for the fans of the game. As part of the design process, I received a production copy, and, well, it's as adorable as it is evil (and as big as my head):
As for the Covenant campaign, as some of you probably noticed, the shipping emails are already going out. In good news, Quartermaster Logistics informed us that they were able to push up the starting ship date for US/Canada backers, and they will start going out this week! The international hubs (other than AU) are on track to start shipping out in the next week or so, and we continue to monitor the situation in Australia, which is looking like a November start date.
