Pledge Manager Launching Later Today + Troll Queen + Merchant License Inquiries
over 1 year ago – Thu, Nov 10, 2022 at 05:57:18 PM

Hi all! 

Heads up! The Pledge manager will launch later today. It is Backerkit and an email will be pushed to you when it does launch. For those not familiar with pledge managers/Backerkit, it is a separate third-party service that allows Kickstarter campaigns to easily collect, track, and organize fulfillment of the rewards. If any questions, please feel free to message me. 

Also, the Troll Queen model has been completed (included in all pledges for the Spellblades physical and/or STL). Comments? Thoughts?

Merchant License Inquiries

For those of you still interested in a merchant license for 3D printing, we will not be offering one at this time.  We do not know what the future holds, and this policy may change, but thanks for the interest and support so far!

Next...

We are making the 3D printed samples, that will hopefully be ready in a week or so. We will update you then with some photos. 

Thanks and stay tuned for the pledge manager!

Hi all, 

Thanks again for the support! All the 3D models are complete, except the Troll Queen which will take about another week. There is nothing left for you to do at this moment, but please keep an eye out for Updates and emails from Backerkit (the pledge manager). Kickstarter will also notify you if your payment has been rejected in the next couple weeks. 

Here is a timeline for sending out rewards, production, etc. Feel free to comment, message me anytime with questions.

• Now thru roughly November 10: Kickstarter will charge your cards for your pledges. You will be notified if the payment fails and need to re-enter your info. NOTE: Shipping is charged later in Backerkit. 
• November 10th: Via Backerkit (Pledge manager). Send out the STL files, if your payment has been successfully processed by Kickstarter.  You will receive an email via Backerkit once it has launched. 
• End of November/Early December: First pre-production samples ready for the physical minis (We will show you photos). 
• December - January 2023: Create the molds for the physical minis
• February (whole month): Tweak the physical miniature molds as needed
• March (whole month): Produce the final physical minis + photos of the finished minis to show you.
• April-May: Wrap up production + Shipping of physical rewards
• June 2023: Delivery of rewards wordwide. 

Thanks and please let us know if you have questions.
