Q&A and more cryptids!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Apr 29, 2023 at 11:19:46 AM

Thank you to everyone who filled out the survey! I've been able to get a better idea of what you guys want to see more of. First things first, I want to address a few of the questions/comments I've gotten on the survey regarding the collection:

"I don't get the pun with champ-agne."

  • It's a play on words for the The Lake Champlain Monster (Champ)

"The vaporwave set - Is it supposed to be spelled "angel" or "angle" on the pin?"

  • "Angle." It's a reference to the meme posted in the vaporwave reveal update. "Yuor" is also intentionally spelled wrong.

"Interested in more magnets and acrylic keychains!"

  • I'm looking at specifics right now but I will probably have these items available to purchase through the Backerkit survey after the campaign. 

"Glowing accents (eyes & claws) would be awesome."

  • A few of the designs already have glow-in-the-dark details.  Peas - Glowing green body, Phatwoods Monster - Glowing yellow eyes, Loveland Frogman - Glowing yellow eyes and "Lurk"
  • Glow-in-the-dark powder has a higher defect rate (as well as $$$) - especially in large areas - so I've decided to keep it to a minimum 

-----------------------------------------------------

MORE CRYPTIDS

  • I also had a ton of requests regarding stickers soooooo every design will be available as a sticker through Backerkit. You will be able to purchase these when you fill out your survey AFTER the campaign is over.
  • You guys also expressed a lot of interest in more potato cryptids mini pins so I will be adding a secondary set to the campaign -- look for that in the next update!  
  • I will also be adding the Yeti design as a pin in the next update as well. I hope to have it ready to go within the next day or two.
  • Lastly, I've taken all of your cryptid requests into consideration and will work on creating one or two more designs for the collection. 
  • I've had A TON of requests for the Jersey Devil, Mongolian Deathworm, and Jackalope which are already part of the campaign(?) Please look over the campaign if you missed these! 

Mid Campaign Survey

Hey friends!

We are almost about half way through the campaign -- I've created a backer feedback survey that I will use to consider additional designs to add to the collection. This survey is 100% voluntary and is not required. 

 Take the survey! 

Chupacabra

Heyo 🐮

I've gotten a huge amount of requests to add the Chupacabra -- I honestly thought he wasn't that popular 🤔 I decided to name this one Heavy Metal Lovers since goats basically eat cans and blood is a rich source of iron 😌🫴 The blood will have a red glitter added to it on the final pin.

This design will count as a regular pin instead of an add-on. If you're interested in adding this to your pledge, you can do so by switching to a higher pin tier. I've added a 10-pin tier for anyone who wants all 10 designs.

Hey everyone 👁🫦👁

First of all, thank you for backing my new pin collection. 😳🙏 I was definitely not expecting over 200 backers in the first 24 hours.

I'm glad you guys have been loving the designs 😌🫴 I asked over on Instagram what designs should be added and there was an overwhelming amount of requests for the Jersey Devil. 😈 I decided to incorporate a classic meme -- so I hope this satisfies 😏

This pin set is rainbow plated and has vaporwave vibes so I decided to put this in add-ons instead of as a reward pin. If you'd like these, you can add the set on for $20 in the add-on manager. 😇

I'm considering adding a chupacabra to the main collection but still brainstorming ideas 💡 Everyone and their mom has mentioned using "goat sucker" but y'all know I never go for the obvious choice.😏🫴

Stay chaotic my dudes.
