Updates

Thank you so much everyone!! ALL FIVE PIN DESIGNS ARE UNLOCKED! An extra special thank you to everyone at LVL UP EXPO who supported this project last minute. To give people a chance to hop on board last minute now that all five designs are funded, we’ve decided to extend the campaign and give backers a chance to unlock the mystery Akuma No Mi!

So what does this mean?

1. EDIT/UPDATE YOUR PLEDGE
If you were keeping your pledge on a certain tier to wait and see which stretch goals were unlocked, you now have more time to decide how many pins you would like! Also, if you were at LVL UP EXPO, don’t forget to let me know before everything locks so you can secure your free Add-on!

2. VOTE IN THE DESIGN POLL
If you haven’t already, make sure you vote in the poll below to decide which fruit you’d like to see unlocked! This poll ends April 26th at 11:59PM CDT so those on keeping current with announcements will get the benefit!

Don’t forget there’s other ways you can help us meet this last stretch goal without adding more to your pledge!

1. SHARE
There’s lots of places that you can spread the word about this project! A few examples that come to mind are…

A word of caution: if you do post on social media, be aware that if you tag ANYTHING “enamel pin” “pin” “merch design”, etc, you may get several spam messages from manufacturers scouting potential clients. Ask me how I know! So, if this is something you very much do not want, be mindful of algorithms or maybe find other places to share.

2. ENGAGE
Discussing in the Community tab helps a lot!! It tells Backerkit that people are interested in what we got cookin’ over here and will further share this project to other people who are already looking for projects to support. A win/win for us all!
Some things I’d love to hear discussions about are…

Please remember, though: keep it FRIENDLY and SPOILER-FREE!!

Wow everyone, and with so much time to spare!! I can’t thank you all enough for your interest and support. Now that we’re funded, there’s crewmate business to discuss:

We’re already quite close to funding the Mera Mera No Mi! If this campaign exceeds my expectations and we unlock this next tier, I will be releasing a poll deciding between three possible Devil Fruits. I will be picking these three for the poll based upon interest posted in the Community tab, so if there’s an Akuma that you can’t live without make sure your voice is heard!

Want to get to these other stretch goals? Here’s a few ways you can help your captain that don’t cost a single Berry!!

3. VISIT ME AT LVL UP EXPO ‘26
Last but not least, this campaign is scheduled to end during LVL UP EXPO in Las Vegas. If you will be in the area, please come visit me in the Artist Alley at table A208. I will be handing out flyers to boost support during this last weekend of the campaign, so you can pick some up to hand out to friends if you’re so inclined.

That’s all for now!! I look forward to hearing from you all, and as always, if you have any comments, questions, or concerns, you can contact me here, or at [email protected]. :) Thank you again with all my heart!
