Hey Gang!
It's been too long, apologies for the radio silence. Between DesignerCon and the Holidays, it's just been absolutely insane! Hope everyone is doing awesome!
BACKERKIT - With the technical difficulties, and the Holidays right around the corner, I'm just gonna push this out to January. Start 2025 off right with MONSTORS BABY!!!!
BUT, we do have some good FUN stuff updates...
---
WEAPONS BABY!!!
A few weeks ago artist extraordinaire Tiago Zenobini finished the sculpts for all the new weapons - Coral Knife, Dezzert Dagger, and Weapons Pack #2! CHECK EM OUT!
That is ONE beefy MACE! And just for clarity, the Weapons Pack #2 will come with TWO Sai's, not one, but it is the same sculpt.
I'll get some renders of our favorite Beastly Buff Brawler Bros holding the new weapons soon!
---
PRODUCTION
All the figures are moving along with the factory. They've already done the first round of test prints, and we're kicking all the tires, getting the factory notes, and making sure we are in a good spot before we share any updates there. But it's pretty awesome seeing all the NEW pieces printed in 3D for the first time! IT'S FREAKING HAPPENING!!!!
Anyways, thanks again everyone for your patience (I'll keep saying it) hope you dig the weapons, and hoping to have some updates on production before the end of the year!
Happy Holidays!!!

BACKERKIT - DELAYED... (BOOOO!!!!!)

Hey Gang!
Sorry to have to delay this, but ran into some WEIRD technical difficulties with BackerKit, and Im working with them on resolving it. For anyone that likes boring details, see below...
Otherwise, hoping to get this resolved after we're back from DesignerCon, (which I just packed the cargo van for, VEGAS HERE WE COME!!!) and THEN I can fully jump back into this with them with a clear focus to OBLITERATE THE OBJECTIVE!!!
Hoping everyone is doing awesome, and we'll share another update when we can! Sorry I suck! *dodges tomatoes*

***BORING DETAILS***
Basically while editing SKU's (while creating them), and finding out that certain edits are ok, but other edits cause BackerKit to delete the OLD SKU, and generate a totally new one instead, with the exact same name... BUT, it saves the deleted ones, which act as a ghost-like copy, still lingering, not going away... and now I cant tell which is the DELETED one, and which is the GOOD one, when it comes to linking them with the pledges (a pledge needs a SKU or multiple SKU's to be linked with them)... I have 5 of these items, and it's kinda crazy how weird this can get...
BACKERKIT - LAUNCHING THIS WEEK!
over 1 year ago

Hey Gang!
Sorry for the radio silence AGAIN, we have just been plugging away at everything slowly but surely!
BACKERKIT is FINALLY READY TO LAUNCH - NEXT WEEK!!! Day TBD - Just putting the final touches on a few things but next week FO SHO!
Here's a bit of what we're looking at as to what's what:
-
Fish-Head & Lizard-Bro - Will be available as add-ons for $55 each!
-
Fish-Head & Lizard-Bro "Glow in the Dark" Variants - Will be available as add-ons for $55 each!
-
Knife Weapon SET - Will stay where it was - Free for everyone who pledged $200 and over, and will be a $5 add-on for anyone who wants it! We didnt hit the $160,000 goal, and we're basically offering them for a tiny bit over cost, and we think that's fair.
-
Knuckle Weapon - This wont be available at this time. We didnt hit the $160,000 goal, and we'd rather just focus on getting everything else just right for this production run, and save this for later!
-
The KICKSTARTER EXCLUSIVE items (clear variants) - They will be available for $55 each and THAT will be your LAST CHANCE to get those 4 different "Clear Variants"! They wont be available for the Pre-Order store or BBTS or anywhere else after this whole thing is over.
SHIPPING - This will not be a part of the BackerKit Survey, but we will need your SHIPPING ADDRESS. Shipping will be calculated and charged later next year closer to the time of the end of the production run, when we have final packaging sizing, weights, etc. If you move by then, there will be plenty of time to get us your new shipping address.
The BackerKit survey will be running for a while - probably until late January, maybe a little bit longer... Once we lock in the final orders with the factory, we will close the BackerKit portion. So if you're worried about timing now, with spending more money, the holidays are coming up, etc, we will leave this open to our supporters for a while and we will give you plenty of heads up as to when this will close.
I think that's it for now! Thanks everyone again for your patience, it's crazy to think that tomorrow is the one-month anniversary for the Kickstarter portion ENDING, and how long all of this takes. But we promise it will be WORTH IT!
Hope everyone is doing AWESOME, and dont hesitate to comment or message us with any questions, concerns, suggestions, etc!

BACKERKIT UPDATE!
over 1 year ago
– Wed, Oct 23, 2024 at 07:27:03 AM
Hey Gang!
Sorry for the radio silence, we just figured a meaty update is better than a bunch of random noise!
Things are moving along with BACKERKIT, and we just wanna make sure everything is SOLID before we launch that process with all of you beautiful people!
We BELIEVE all the items are set up in the store properly, this is a WHOLE NEW THANG to learn and dang it's a lot of work haha... BUT the $160,000 stretch goal items will be made available as add-on's (Fish-Head, Lizard-Bro, their Glow in the Dark Variants, etc) and everything else is still available as add-on's as well, including the KICKSTARTER EXCLUSIVE items, which we consider "BackerKit" part of that campaign for you all. That will be your LAST CHANCE to get those 4 different "Clear Variants" just an FYI!
We're in the WORST PART of BackerKit now, which is figuring out SHIPPING... UGHS!!! This is totally new territory for us and we wanna make sure we get it right for everyone. So that will probably take the next couple of days to figure out and then I'll share another update about it.
Thanks everyone again for your patience, it's crazy to think that tomorrow is the 2-week anniversary for the Kickstarter portion ENDING, it's been crazy!
Hope everyone is doing AWESOME, and dont hesitate to comment or message us with any questions, concerns, suggestions, etc!
