If you missed out on the initial Kickstarter campaign, you can still grab some krakenships miniatures here!
The miniatures have finally arrived! We'll be sorting these out and then starting to fulfill everyone's orders over the next several days. Once your rewards have shipped, you should get an email shortly after with information on your shipment.
More updates to follow as fulfillment progresses!
Greetings everyone! I have gotten word that the miniatures are nearly here after a long journey across the ocean! I'll be receiving the miniatures within the next week or two and will begin packing up and shipping out everyone's rewards ASAP! So be on the lookout for another update soon!
If anyone has any kind of shipping address changes since they were locked, please let me know IMMEDIATELY!! I may still be able to change them if needed, but after this weekend it'll become extremely difficult to do so.
While I do my best to make sure these Kickstarter campaigns are ran and fulfilled as best I can, there's a lot of guesswork involved before ever starting them from costs to fulfillment dates. This campaign's estimated shipping date for these rewards was this October (2022), so I'm glad that it will be late by only a couple weeks.
Have a great weekend and Happy Halloween (don't eat too much candy)!
Happy October!
I've received word that the miniatures have boarded their cargo ship and officially set sail on their journey across the North Pacific! In light of this, I've gone ahead and locked all shipping addresses--this means you have until tomorrow (Oct 10th) to make any changes to your shipping address. After that, if something absolutely catastrophic comes up and you need your address changed, reach out to me and I'll see what I can do.
That's all for the practical update, but if you just can't wait for your minis to arrive, read on for some fun!
News is limited on the high seas, but I like to imagine the voyage is going something like this...
A voludeek rogue sits in the crow's nest, peering out at the endless sea resting below the horizon. Overhead, a flag with an emblem of a purple kraken is hoisted into place. A centaur standard-bearer cheers from the main deck as two nearby minotaur wizards finish their practiced somatic hand gestures as part of their spell to raise the flag aloft. The mess of ropes then glow with colorful magic as they pull and tie themselves in place, locking the hoisted flag to freely wave in the salty breeze.
"Have you seen my fennec," asks a concerned centaur druid, frantically scanning the deck of the ship, "the waves make him anxious." "Really?" A deep, but calming voice rumbles, "he seems remarkably unfazed." A large elephas druid gently attempts to shoo the excited fox away from the birds happily perched upon him, as the centaur quickly trots over to scoop it up.
Below deck, sounds of merriment echo up from a group gathered in the messdeck. An ensemble of centaur and elephas bards play a jaunty tune as a centaur druid offers freshly conjured berries to all. Two minotaur warriors sit across a large table from one another, locked in an intense and seemingly never ending arm-wrestling match. At the other end of the table, an elephas cleric and a voludeek warlock are adamantly discussing their differing philosophies and debating the benefits of patron versus deity. In a loud corner, where several emptied mugs are strewn about, a voludeek knight, warrior, and an elephas ranger are recalling epic tales of their heroism and astounding feats in the face of overwhelming odds. "Anyone else surely would have succumb to that evil, but I, my friends, I knew what had to be done. I smashed that cursed artifact and black ichor exploded from the horrid thing. The curse was lifted and the town saved!" There is much rejoicing.
More updates to follow!
The time is finally arriving! I'll be locking down shipping addresses here on October 6th in Backerkit - that gives everyone one week from today. So if you need to update or verify your shipping address, please do so before then. The goods are in the process of being shipped over seas. There will be another update about all that will follow within the next week!
If you do need to update your shipping address, just find your Backerkit survey link and head there (or ask me and I can send you your survey link). Once there, at the top right, you can edit your shipping address.
Enjoy the rest of you weeks!
Alrighty, so the last 8 figures are now complete along with the boxed sets and everything is being prepped for shipping! I've added the images of the last minis and their packaging at the bottom of this update. This means that the mini's long journey across the ocean will begin shortly. Once they arrive in the US, I'll be sending you your miniatures ASAP!
This is your final chance to update your shipping addresses before I locked them down and prepare for shipping the miniatures once they arrive. If you do need to update your shipping address, just find you Backerkit survey link and head there (or ask me and I can send you your survey link). Once there, at the top right, you can edit your shipping address. I will be locking these down here in the next few weeks.
Another update on shipping orders, I've decided that we're going to ship out orders in a single shipment instead of breaking up some of the orders as previously mentioned in an earlier update. This basically means that everyone will receive just one shipment and it will have your entire order of miniatures! It's better for the environment as well as making sure to mitigate any potential shipping mistakes.
Here are the last 8 miniatures and their packaging:
We're cutting it close for getting these shipped out in time for the estimated shipping date of October of this year, but at least we're steadily moving forward! Thank you everyone for sticking with this during this long process. I hope you all enjoy your weekend!
