Project Update: Voice Line ETA's, Production Status, and Address Lock Info - Oh My!


Hello there! A lot of you may be wondering:

It's March - when do things ship?
In a few more weeks!
There are a couple things to remember as far as shipping dates. 1) Our estimates were based on our previous campaign, which had fewer orders and different products, 2) Now that we're working with a fulfillment center, everything has to arrive at the warehouse before shipping starts, but once it does, packages will go out much faster than when we handled shipping ourselves, and 3) Once they do start sending out, actual arrival time will depend on your location relative to the California based shipping center. All of that said, we do still think we can hit late March or early April for things starting to go out! All the plushies have already arrived at the warehouse and other items have and will be joining them there! There's been a couple smaller delays but we're otherwise pretty well on track for what we predicted, given the unexpected and overwhelming support of this campaign compared to the last one!

The couple of smaller delays include the lunchbox samples being a little behind schedule, and the comic assets taking quite a while to put together. The Wylde Hare comic has been a sole focus for a good month and change, and is just starting to wrap up. We've already researched our manufacturer and it should come together very quickly once the assets are done. The above art is one of the panels, and we've had a lot of fun leaning into the aesthetic of vintage serials for this project! It's taken a LOT of work, but we're very happy with the soon-to-be-ready story.

Voice lines will be rolling out in the next 8-10 days for those of you who got a custom character line. We had to wait for folks on payment plans to finish their installments and complete their surveys, so we thank you for your patience as everyone caught up!

Address locks - Once the last remaining products are in production/en route to the factory, we're going to give notice for final addresses to be locked in. Until then, you can still edit your address if any changes or complications arise. We don't have the exact date for the last products yet, but will be giving address lock notice as soon as we do, so please keep an eye out for that! Once the warehouse starts shipping things out, we'll be unable to interrupt the process for changes or exceptions.

We're at the stage where things are gonna start coming together pretty fast, and we've been very pleased with how samples and production has been so far, so we're very excited for things to start going out to people!
If you want something to do while you wait, we're also hosting a charity auction at the end of this month for the National Children's Alliance, where we'll be auctioning off some one-of-a-kind Angel Hare items to support victims of child abuse.  You can keep an eye on our socials (Youtube community posts, twitter, bluesky, and discord announcements) for upcoming details and teasers involving that. 
We'll be back soon with more updates as they come! Thanks for your support,
Till next time!
