I apologize for the delay, our manufacturer has been slower than usual on sample updates + some products needed more revisions than expected to really perfect them!
Let’s start our update with a check in on the Fluffy Weighted Weiss plush:
It’s turning out super cute so far!!! We’re going to have it go through another round of revisions to get a more Weiss accurate shape, but besides that not a lot of changes!
Weiss Plush:
As for this one, it still needs some work on the shape to be more like the concept art! Adjustments will mainly be made to the ear shape and back legs.
Photos for the wallet + all jellyfish plush keychain color variants will be available soon in our July update! Here’s a refreshed timeline keeping in mind the delays from slow sample times:
Jellyfish tie dye shirt - manufacturing in progress
Mandelbrot Varsity - manufacturing in progress
Weiss Plush - sample in revision
Fluffy Weighted Weiss Plush - sample in revision
Stickers - manufacturing in progress
Enamel Pins - manufacturing in progress
As a reminder, if you need assistance with your order we are more than happy to help you out at our email [email protected]! Thank you all so much again for your support, it’s been awesome to see Studio Flimpo hire people onto their team and successfully reach picture lock on their pilot episode!!! Will update again soon when we have some progress to share on products :D -Chimera Bunny team
Hiya everyone! ChimeraBunny team here with a quick update: The surveys have gone live! If you have not yet received your survey or do not know where to find it, you may contact [email protected] and we can send you the link to your survey.
We have also opened up the pre-order store for those of you who missed out on the campaign while it was live! It's a great way to continue your support for Studio Flimpo's projects (and look super cool while doing it of course)
Have any questions about the surveys or shipping? Check our previous update for the FAQ! If we didn't catch your question, you can also shoot us an email anytime. That's all we had for now! We'll continue to post updates as items get new samples and reach new phases in their production. Thanks for reading! -ChimeraBunny team
Hello everyone, Chimera Bunny team here to talk about fullfillment since we will be handling it for this campaign! Please direct all questions about shipping/your order to [email protected] if you need to contact us!
So what’s next? How do I pick my pledge items?
In the next 2-3 weeks, the surveys will be sent out to your emails! The surveys will collect your shipping address, let you add new items to your order, change your pledge level, and select your items of choice. Shipping for your order will also be calculated, however it will not be charged until we are 1 month from fulfilling orders! Stay tuned to updates + refer to the shipping timeline chart in the campaign story to know when that will be. (we are technically on holiday vacation, but as soon as it's ready we will release the surveys)
What if the item I want does not have a sample yet?
No worries! The surveys will stay opened until all samples have been completed and shared in new updates. That way, you can make an informed decision on what items you’d like to get in your order! All items unlocked during the campaign are currently getting samples produced and will continue for the next month or so (depending on how many revisions are needed.)
When does the bulk production start?
Bulk production will start once surveys lock so we can know how many of each item to order! Please follow along with updates and don’t forget to take the survey, as a late submission may result in us having to refund your order if we did not produce enough of an item.
What if I move before shipping/fulfillment begins?
No worries! You can always email us [email protected] after surveys lock and we will make sure that is corrected for you. Please take the surveys as soon as you can, you can put your current address if you need but this is how we will know how much stock to order so it’s best to take it early!
When does shipping begin/when will I get my order?
We are estimating shipping to begin in August 2026 and continue through October 2026! Please keep in mind this is subject to change based on manufacturing times. If there are delays in an item’s production, we will also make an update to let you know the status + new estimates of shipping times.
I know a lot of you are completely new to Backerkit, so hopefully this can cover some of the frequently asked questions to new backers. Thank you so much to everyone who supported to help Studio Flimpo hire more artists to their team!! It's been a blast and we have loved getting to work together with them on this campaign :D
$55,449!!! That is over 500% of our initial goal, WOW we can not thank you all enough!!
The final countdown stream was so much fun, we hope you also had a good time for those of you who were able to make it to an awkward Thursday time slot.
You'll be seeing an update from ChimeraBunny about shipping/surveys/any questions you may have- and they'll also be handling all fulfillment for this campaign! So if you need any help from them, contact [email protected] not us! (We will be too busy working on Mandelbrot Hall)
Speaking of Mandelbrot Hall, we're so excited to be able to expand our crew in the new year! We couldn't have done it without your help, and progress will go much faster now. With your help, we'll hopefully be able to have it done on time for some big animation festivals :D
Tomorrow we'll post our last video of the year, an official thank you and bringing everyone up to speed. We'll be in the office until around Dec 20th, and between now and then we'll try and get as much of the episode done for an end-of-year assemble cut. Then, after a much-needed holiday rest, we will regroup in the new year, expand our team, and make Mandelbrot Hall EVEN MORE REAL-ER THAN IT WAS BEFORE!!!
Seriously, thank you all so, so much for your continued support towards our studio and Mandelbrot Hall. We are so thankful to have you behind us as we take on this insane workload, we're so excited for you to see it in the end!
Love you all, happy holidays, and FLIMP ON!! -Milo, Ren, and Reid
Milo here, I'm writing this update before my morning tea (as soon as physically possible) to tell you we BLEW PAST the Weighted Weiss Plush goal, and it's now available as a pledge level or add-on!
Problem is, THE CAMPAIGN CLOSES IN FOUR HOURS!! It really, really won't be available for long- so now is the time if you want one!
Our final countdown stream starts at Noon EST, one hour before the scheduled end of the stream! But remember, the campaign doesn't end until the backer train ends, and neither will the stream! Last time we did this, we streamed for FIVE HOURS. Will we break that record today? Who knows!!
My morning tea is ready and I've told you all everything you need to know. Thank you all so much again for such a wonderful campaign, we'll see you at the stream!
