Hallo lieblings!
I hope you've all had a great start to your February!
Huge thank you to everyone that's filled out their surveys! There are still two of you who haven't so please check that you have and get that done ASAP.
Cards charged for Backerkit surveys on the first, and I'm very happy that the majority of cards charged with no errors! There are twelve of you who need to fix your cards (including preorder backers). If you've not seen a charge come out and you have filled out your survey, please check to see if you got an email from Backerkit asking you to fix your card info.
And, VERY IMPORTANT: If you ordered a Chest Keychain, I forgot to add a selection box for whether you wanted Ren or Strade. Everyone that ordered one (or more) of these has recieved a DM here on Kickstarter asking which you would like. It is VITAL that you respond to this message as I will not be able to pack your order when the time comes without this information.
With that out of the way, I wanted to let you all know that I've placed the order for the pins, and they will be starting production soon!
The embroidered keychains have also been ordered! Same deal for those, I hope to have more pics soon!
As for the bags, I'm finalizing my counts, and expect to place the order sometime this week or next.
China has an upcoming national holiday, so most of my manufacturers will be away for a couple weeks. As soon as I have any WIP pictures to share with you of from them, I'll be posting them here!
I do, however, have two more products in hand that I'm super excited to show you all!
Zav's keychains arrived yesterday, along with the Fox glow in the dark stickers! I absolutely love how they came out!
That's all I've got for you for now. Next update will probably be whenever I get WIP pics, or a reminder that surveys are going out for Pay Over Time folks on the 1st of March, whichever comes first.
Behave in the basement, and stay safe, y'all!
Much love,
Katze

Hallo lieblings!
This is one more reminder that surveys are due on Jan 31st, with cards charged on the 1st. This will mostly be copy and paste from the last update. If you've filled out the survey already, thank you!
There are still 10 of you (not including Pay Over Time) that still need to fill out your Backerkit survey. This survey is VITAL for me to be able to fulfill your rewards for this campaign. It's where you pay for shipping, and give me your address. IF YOU DO NOT FILL OUT THE SURVEY, YOU WILL NOT GET YOUR REWARDS.
Can't find your survey? Click here and enter the email associated with your Kickstarter account to retrieve it!
Additionally, cards will charge for all preorders, shipping fees, and add-ons you purchased via the survey on FEB 1ST.
With all that out of the way, I also wanted to let you know that my next enamel pin campaign is currently LIVE on Backerkit! It's not BTD related but I still wanted to plug it haha. It's a series of pins based on some of my favorite N64 games! Zavlekat (the artist behind the connecting keychains of Ren and Strade) also did Star Fox pins for this campaign.

Hallo lieblings!
I wanted to post a quick update as a reminder that surveys are due on Jan 31st. PLEASE NOTE: This does not include those of you that are using Pay Over Time -- your surveys will be sent out in March!

I hope you all are having a good start to your year and staying warm, especially those of you in the areas that are gearing up for that big winter storm.
If nothing else, my basement is warm, so behave down there, kay?
Much love,

Hallo lieblings, happy Thursday!
I'm so happy to say that surveys have officially been sent and should be hitting your inboxes any minute now (if they haven't already)!
In the survey, you'll pay for your shipping, choose your items, and any additional add ons you might want.
If you have ANY questions feel free to comment them here or send me a message~!
Please fill out the survey ASAP. You won't be charged for shipping + add ons purchased in the survey until the survey closes on Feburary 1st, so please keep that in mind!
EDIT: If you selected Pay Over Time, you will NOT get a survey until your payment is complete in March! This is perfectly normal and fine, don't stress! If this isn't you, you're looking for an email with the subject, "Response Needed — Get your reward for BTD Swappable Ita Bag + Enamel Pins".
I look forward to seeing what items end up being the most popular. If I was a betting cat, I'd place money on the Ren bag being at the top, lmao.
Much love, everyone. Stay safe out there.
Sending well wishes to all of you in my basement,
Katze

Hallo lieblings, happy hump day!
Backerkit has finished reviewing the survey! I've gone ahead with sending "smoke tests" -- essentially, a few of you have been chosen at random from each pledge level to get a survey before the rest. You're my beta testers! If you are chosen for smoke test, PLEASE FILL OUT YOUR SURVEY ASAP! If there's anything weird that seems wrong in your survey, please let me know so I can make changes before it goes out to the masses. The sooner I can get a majority of the smoke tests turned in, the sooner I can send surveys to everyone!
Best wishes, guys!
Katze
