Hello Wild Ones old and new!

Welcome to Plushpanions, your eco-friendly plush companions! Thank you for your support for this project right from the get-go, and for your sharing throughout, I couldn't do this without you. 💚

I'm here to share the Day 1 Recap of Monty Mothman and also to share some new Add-Ons that have been, well... added! 👀 

🦋 Monty Mothman: Day One 🕯️

As of this update we are 55% funded - just from day one! 🎉 Thank you all for such an amazing launch, let's keep the momentum going. We've almost unlocked Monty and, if this pledging average continues, we will unlock Laisy Luna moth in no time!

📍 Free Pins 📍

With that said, I have added a few new Add-Ons for newcomers to the Plushpanion world...

🐐 New Add-Ons 🐐 

I received a fantastic question within the comments of the Launching in 15 Hours Update, where it was asked if the Golden Krampus pin and Krampus plush were available to Add-On to a Mothman pledge. While I cannot add a free incentive pin as a purchasable Add-On, I can absolutely create a Silver version ( just like the Monty pin ) to our available Add-Ons.

I have also added a Kidd Krampus plush as available Add-Ons for your pledge. These are full price, because early pricing is held for initial Backers, but you do save on shipping by bundling the Krampus plush with your pledge items, rather than purchasing separately on my website.

Already pledged but want to add Krampus items? You can edit your pledge to add any new Add-Ons that you like! 

Here's a "How To" on editing pledges...

📢 Sharing is Caring - Get the Word Out! 📢

There's also a handy-dandy share link that pops up after you've pledged - @ me in those!

❗ Important Reminders  ❗

$16,519.26! That would be enough to not only unlock Laisy and be on out way unlocking Dottie Death's-head moth!

Thank you all for this awesome launch, and I can't wait to see all the little moths we continue to unlock on the way! 💚

Hey Wild Ones, it's finally here... Monty Mothman and His Eclipse Pals is launching in 15 HOURS! 🚀

We got nearly 250 followers for the campaign before launch, I am absolutely FLOORED! 🎉 Thank you for all of the love for this project, your encouragement and sharing of the project helped me chug through the last few days of finalizing everything for the campaign!

With that said, I'm really here to remind you of the multiple freebies you can get when pledging to the campaign!

📍 Cross Collab Pin 📍

I have the honor of collaborating with the fantastic Princefizzart for this year's Pintopia 2025 event. Cross-Collabs means if you pledge to his campaign at a physical level, in addition to Monty Mothman, you'll get a free pin from both of us! We've designed our own black metal pins to coincide with each other, based on the "light" theme that both of our plushies have.

You heard that right, it's another awesome plushy campaign! Pricefizz's campaign is the Moon Servant: Fear & Hunger plush. A purple cat plush with soft faux fur and a removable outfit, what isn't there to love? Be sure to check out their project, here!

🧸 Achievements 🧸

More details about these characters ( including their outfits and props ) will be detailed on the story page tomorrow!

There's plenty of goodies in store, including some awesome eco-friendly add-on items that you can get with your pledge...

See you tomorrow - let's really launch this thing into space! 💥🚀

Hey Wild Ones,

🎊 Welcome! 🎊

🔗 Cross Collab 🔗 

Cross Collabs are a BackerKit feature, where if you pledge to two projects that are partnered together, you'll get 2 free pins - 1 per artist. For Mothman's project, I have the special honor of cross collaborating with Princefizz! 🎉

Princefizz ( he/him ) is a Scottish artist that specializes in cute illustrations and designs. He's been creating keychains and personal merchandise for years, but officially started Princefizz Art in 2023! His Pintopia plush campaign is for the Fear & Hunger Moon Servant plush. An adorable ( but deadly ) cuddly plush featuring a beloved servant of Rher. Standing at an impressive 18", this plush features soft faux fur, embroidered details, and a removable plush suit, making him the perfect companion for a cozy night in.

Below are the free pins you can earn by backing both of our projects. These will be 1.75" black metal pins. Follow Princefizz's campaign here to be notified of when it launches!

📍 Pintopia: Pins 'n Plushies 📍

 🔓  Unlocking Designs 🔓

Throughout the Monty Mothman campaign, we will unlock stretch goals for additional moth plush designs to be made! Once Monty has reached his funding goal of $8,000, the next plushy stretch goal will be added. In this case, it would be the Laisy Luna plush for $16,000, then Dottie the Death's-Head Hawkmoth and so on.

When you pledge to the campaign, you'll be selecting the amount of plushies you would like to have, not the specific designs. Then once the campaign is complete, you'll be able to select which plushies from the designs that have been unlocked.
