Project Update: Broken mold ;_;
Hi everyone,
I was hoping to be able to update y'all with better news, but after some back and forth with Mile High, it's looking like the left arm mold has failed..meaning that a new mold needs to get made in order to finish the run.
So it's mostly bad news here tbh. I'm hoping it won't take the 9 months as my first molds, but suffice to say, none of the marbled or Magenta toys have been pulled and they can't be pulled until a functioning mold gets made :sob:
I expect to get the Lime and solid Robin's Egg figures in soon, so if you're not getting any of the above options, I'll start shipping those out ASAP.
So this means that I'll locking addresses for some of you soon, but if you get an address lock notice, that means you'll be getting your pins/shirts/figures relatively soon.
For everyone else, thanks for your patience. I'm so bummed this is taking longer than expected, but I guess huge delays is part of the indie toy creator world, sadly.
The one good thing about all of this is that I had planned for the Robin's Egg to be the base color for my first painted run, which I'm hoping to premier at DesignerCon in December.
So while we all patiently await our marbled (and Magenta) Nightmare-Chans, hopefully I'll have some painted figures for anyone swinging by Anaheim.
Anyway, thank you again, and looking forward to sharing purely good news soon!
