Project Update: All backers pls read!! - Partial Shipment update
Hi fam,
So last week was a total wash due to a family emergency that had me flying to the Bay Area for the past week (which especially was terrible timing as I ended up missing the Blasphemeet show last weekend).
I just got back, so I locked shipping addresses for those receiving rewards that are NOT the Magenta or marbled figures.
I'll be spending the next day or two trimming, assembling, and packaging your orders - I realize that I didn't give y'all a chance to update your address, so if you got an email saying that your address was locked and you need it unlocked to edit, please just email me at [email protected].
Hope y'all are doing well, and looking forward to finally getting some of these toys out to you!
Thanks again for all your patience, and I due to the mold failure it's looking like everyone else will be getting their figures in the New Year ;_;
THAT SAID - there is some potentially good news.
So due to the way a small toy production factory works (both Mile High and other sofubi houses in Japan) work, is that due to the nature of how vinyl is poured into molds, orders are usually "ganged up" by color. Meaning that if there's a large order for a certain color, they will pull multiple orders of different toys at the same time. So if you happen to order toys in a popular color, those are likely to be fulfilled earlier as if they're already fulfilling another order in that color they can lump that part of your order in with a different toy being produced in the same color.
This is why the marbled ones came last - those are such a custom order that they have to wait until there's an open spot in production in order to get those done since no one else is ordering that color.
But the good news is that I ALSO happened ask for more figures in any other vinyl color that was being pulled - there was a darker maroon-ish color being pulled, and so I have a small quantity of those figures in-hand. Here's the body so you can see the difference with the magenta test pull I have.
I'm planning to do some customs for DesignerCon (Dec. 15-17 in Anaheim) using these as a base, but if anyone has ordered a magenta figure (or really, any figure color) and wants to swap for a maroon one, I'm happy to swap and ship it out sooner. Just comment here and I'll update your order.
Please let me know if you'd like one (especially if you're swapping for a lime or robin's egg) by this FRIDAY (November 17), so I can begin planning my paint run and customs for the show (and also ship out existing orders)! Otherwise, any extras of these maroon blanks will be sold to the general public at DCON.
Thanks again for all the patience and understanding, and I'll do my best to get you your demonic entities ASAP!
Cheers,
Rick
