Hallo lieblings!

I have a sweet update for you guys today!

THE BAGS ARE HERE, AND THE PINS! And, thanks to some friends volunteering their time yesterday, we were able to ship about around 10% of all orders!

Some items aren’t here yet, so this weekend’s round of orders were those that don’t contan Spooka's items, the lanyards, or the scrunchies. I’ll also prioritized packing backers before preorder folks as you've all waited longer!

Those of you who did not have a bag or any of the aforementioned items, your packages are in the mail! There were also 17 orders that had bags that we were able to pack. Best wishes to those of you who are getting your bags early, surprise!

To those of you that aren't, we are still on track for the shipping schedule outlined in the campaign (if maybe a couple weeks behind, at most, due to manufacturing delays.) Like the update title says, I'll pick back up fulfillment for these in late June/Early July. I have a pride enamel pin campaign I have promised delivery in June for folks so they're able to have them for festivals, so those are the immediate priority once they are delivered next week. 

Preorders are also going to remain open over on Backerkit until I can finish fulfillment of this campaign, as I ordered extras of everything! So if there's a friend you know who missed the campaign, you can still direct them over there. Again, preorders will ship AFTER all backer orders have gone out. 

There are also still two of you who have not filled out the survey. IF YOU DO NOT FILL OUT YOUR BACKERKIT SURVEY, YOU WILL NOT RECIEVE YOUR ORDER, AS IT IS HOW I GET YOUR ADDRESS AND HAVE YOU PAY FOR SHIPPING. 

Same deal for the 6 of you with cards that have not been fixed after declining for the shipping charge. Please get this done ASAP!

Last thing from me, a pic of the Strade pin fresh out the shipping box because I was gawking at it. 


Feel free to ask any questions in the comments, or shoot me a DM here! I gotchu guys.


Much love,

Katze

Bags have finished production! Shipping to me soon! Plus, mini pin previews!

Hallo hallo, lieblings!

I appreciate all your patience! The production process is very much one that I am hands-off with -- I don't get a ton of updates, it's really a waiting game! But finally, FINALLY, I have news to share! The bags have finished production and will ship out SOON! This is the shipping to me, which will take roughly a month as they're shipping by ocean liner! Once they're here, I'll need to do quality checks and organize the fulfillment. We are still in line with the timeline of having these shipped out in June! I will post another update when they arrive, and packing should start within a week of their arrival!

Wanna see what 400 bags looks like all together? Check out the video I just posted on TikTok! (Also, leaving a comment, reposting, sharing etc. helps with the algorithm, if you'd do that it would help me a ton!)
 
In addition to the bags being ready to ship, the mini pins have finished production! They're moving on to the portrait pins now, and I'm hoping everything will be here around the same time. I'm so hype to have them in my grubby little hands! Here are some pics of the mini pins!! (Designs by @Spookabean!)

That's all I have to share for now! Again, thanks so much for being patient and for all the support! Soon it'll be shipping time, and I truly can't wait to see our favorite fucked up little guys in your new bags once they arrive safely to their new homes. Please do share pics on socials, it brings me SO much joy!

Behave in the basement,

Katze

REMINDER: Pay Over Time Surveys due March 13th!
3 months ago – Fri, Mar 06, 2026 at 01:10:29 PM

Hallo lieblings!

Just a quick update today. It was brought to my attention I forgot to let you lovely pay over time folks know what the deadline for your surveys is! The surveys are due by March 13th! Cards will charge then as well for shipping + any post-campaign add ons!

Thank you so much to those of you who have already filled out the survey. There are currently 18 total backers (across pay over time and regular payment) that still need to fill out their surveys. It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT you fill this out ASAP. Without it, I will not be able to ship your rewards! Also, the quantities reported from the survey are what allows me to decide how many of each item I order. If you do not fill out the survey, I cannot guarantee all items will be avaliable at the time of fulfillment!

That's it for now. The weather is breaking and after a very tumultous winter (I feel like I really did get seasonally depressed this time around... I normally manage to avoid it) I'm very happy to have warmer weather and sunny days ahead. My sleep schedule is slowly reverting to normal as well and I'm really excited to be productive and start up my convention season as well!

One final reminder: my next pin campaign, Love is Super Effective, launches on Backerkit next Tuesday, March 10th! It's a series of Pride themed Pokeball mini pins, and a part of a Pride themed collection of projects (called a group collab on Backerkit) named A Pin of Pride! If you back my campaign and at least two others in the collab, you'll get a freebie mini pin from each creator! Plus, since you've backed a previous campaign of mine (this one lol) you'll also get a free sticker as a bonus, yippee!

Check it out HERE!

Be good in the basement,

Surveys sent for Pay Over Time backers!
4 months ago – Tue, Mar 03, 2026 at 05:59:31 PM

Hallo lieblings!

Just a short update today, not much to report on in terms of production. But! Surveys have now been sent for Pay Over Time backers!

Please let me know if you have any issues or questions regarding the survey!

Much love everyone!

Katze

PS: I saw the Umamusume movie today and got so pumped to continue to chase my goals and keep pushing forward. Who knew horse girls could fan my flames so hard... I hope to keep pushing to new heights, and I am so happy to have you all along for the journey. I'm so grateful for you all.

PREORDERS CLOSE FEB 28TH @ MIDNIGHT! Reminder for March 1st Pay Over Time, plus upcoming pin projects!
4 months ago – Fri, Feb 27, 2026 at 06:06:05 PM

Hallo lieblings!

It's been a minute since I've posted an update! Things are coming along (slowly, but surely). My manufacturers in China have returned to work from a much deserved break over the Lunar New Year holiday. Next update I should have pin samples to share, and hopefully the jet tags in hand (they've been stuck at customs for like a week, ugh!)

The BIG thing I want to say with this update though is that the preorder store will be closing TOMORROW, Feb 28th, at midnight! If someone you know missed the campaign, make sure they know that they are down to the wire to guarantee they get their hands on the goods! I plan to put leftovers up on Etsy after the campaign + preorders have been fulfilled, but I'm not sure when I'll be restocking if things do sell out (hopefully ASAP, but I can't see the future LOL). So, go get those preorders in if you still need to! HERE is the link!

Another reminder is that Pay Over Time backers will have their final payment on March 1st. After that payment is processed, you should receive a survey within a week. Please keep an eye out for a survey over the next week if you selected Pay Over Time!

Finally, I have a few upcoming pin projects unrelated to BTD that I'd like to share with you all! I hope you'll check them out -- even dropping a follow on the prelaunch page helps me with the algorithm!

This June, I'm launching Tails of Tokyo | Modern Day Kitsune Enamel Pins! This campaign is an original art campaign featuring Kitsune themed designs focused on various Japanese subcultures, including gyaru, decora, and lolita! This is a part of the Pin Quest Group Collab! Check it out HEREor by clicking the banner below!


Then, in August, I'm launching Hero's Hoard: Timeless Mini Pins -- a Zelda/OOT themed set of mini pins featuring items from the game in my style! This is a part of the Pocket Change Group Collab! Check it out HEREor by clicking the banner below!


For this year's Pintober, I'm launching Elemental Evolutions -- a series of enamel pins focusing on the Eeevelutions with their type symbols! These are 1.75in pins featuring gold plating and glitter, and an expansion on my very popular Sylveon design from a previous campaign, PokePostage. I'm so excited to get to draw all the Eevees! Check it out HERE or click the banner below!



And finally, for next year's Pintopia, I'm doing a sequel to this year's Pintopia campaign, 64 Bit Memories. That campaign was centered around N64 games, and I polled my backers there to see what they would like to see as a sequel. Gameboy + DS won, so Handheld Memories will officially launch in January 2027! Follow HERE to stay updated, or click the banner!



Curious to see what projects I cook up, updates and WIPs as I design, and have a voice in my design process? Join my Discord HERE for a full Crowdfunding schedule, updates, convention announcements and more!

Oh, and don't worry. I'll be coming back to feed this fandom this November/December with a TPOF pin campaign (and possible faceplate expansion for the bag?!?!) Keep an eye out for that prelaunch page coming SOON! (Probably being shared in a future update, hehe)

Alright, that's it for now. Behave in the basement, kay?

With love,

Katze
