Hi Toasties! 

I've finally finished shipping out all rewards (that were paid)! 
You should have either received an email from backerkit with your tracking number. If not, please give it a few days to send & a few days for tracking to update. With Hurricane Helene, there has been a lot of delays since I'm in the south east. 

Thank you so much for making this project a success and I hope these pins and other goodies bring each of you some joy! 

If there are any questions or issues with your order, please message me. 

I'm going to be busy till AWA in December as I prep for restocks and catch up on a few other preorders. 

Thanks, 
Borb

Fulfilment Progress
23 days ago – Wed, Sep 25, 2024 at 01:17:16 PM

Hello toasties! 

Pins arrived about a week ago and totes arrived yesterday! 
I've been able to get shipping labels created and dropped off about 71% of the pledges to the post. You will receive a notification (or two depending on the method I entered addresses) with your tracking number by Saturday if I was able to pack it before I ran out of shipping labels. 

Here are some photo updates: 

All Toast Pins
Toast bag with some toast pins and other eeveelution themed accessories

Totes and pins are available on my shop now in the following ways:

  • Tote- Preorder (I want to ship out backer totes first before shipping out non-backers) & There is a preorder discount for those who are purchasing post KS - 50% off your first gacha spin! 
  • Pins - Gacha only but full sets will be made available later this week (all non shiny, all shiny, full set of 19) 
  • B-Grades: As I was packing pins, I noticed some pins had scuffs. This is the only way to select a specific eeveelution but at a discount and defect.

I appreciate your patience and I hope y'all enjoy your goodies from the project!!

Mini Update
about 1 month ago – Wed, Sep 11, 2024 at 09:21:00 AM

Hello toasties! Pins have finally gotten their bready form. Since there are so many designs, the dyeing and printing process is still on track for October fulfillment.

Most of you should see a backer-kit charge from today. Please double check your payment method! There were some errored cards and I won't be able to fulfil rewards if its still errored :"( 

Address locking will come next. If you have a planned move in October, please message me as soon as possible so I can make sure the goodies are delivered to the correct location. 


Thank you for the patience!!

Straggling surveys & Progress
about 2 months ago – Tue, Aug 20, 2024 at 07:16:29 PM

Hi Toasties! 
Yall got a message from me where the appletun version of the tote with shoulder strap is available for preorder! If you want to combine it with your Kickstarter order, you can either purchase from the shop and email me a reply with your ks info so I can refund the excess shipping fund or purchase via backer kit! 

Now onto straggling surveys. We're missing 6 responses but we're almost there to 100%! 

Most of the stragglers have credit card processing issues. Please check your payment details and update it as soon as possible. I won't be able to fulfill your pledge if it isn't paid for ;n; 

I have some updates on the pins and eevee tote! 

The pins are ready for baking before eeveelutions get stuck in them. I expect 10-14 more days until everything is completed and then another 2 weeks for shipping to my place for inspection and grading. 

The eevee totes are almost all completed as well! 

I hope everyone is excited to see the progress and hopefully yall will get them by mid to late October!

End of Campaign, Giveaway Results, & next Steps
2 months ago – Wed, Aug 07, 2024 at 09:52:15 AM

Hello Toasties!! 

Somehow we made it and unlocked all stretch goals for the project within the last 4 hours! 
Here are all the pin designs that we unlocked: 

I've already begun talking to my manu to get a head start on the process, however, I'm still waiting for all KS funds to make it to my acct before going forward. Please check your cc details as there are a few cards that errored. If your payment isn't processed, I won't be able to fulfill your pledge ;n; 

____________________________________________

Sample progress for some of the items

Tote: I've approved the sample embroidery work and mass production has begun. Totes have a longer lead time so I'm hoping by starting this early, everything will arrive around the same time. 

Sticker Book: the non-shiny on the front and shiny on the back!

Eevee charm: arrived and super cute. I chose the ball chain clasp so you can hook it onto your tote if you buy both! Sample photo is on the applin design.

Giveaway Winner

Backer Jennifer Backer #16! Please message me as soon as possible so I can sort out your chosen prize. As a reminder, the prize is a free toast-mon enamel pin from the original toast project designs!

What's next? 

Surveys: I'm working on backerkit surveys and once everything is approved and all KS funds are processed, I'll send everyone an email that their survey is ready! A few will receive early surveys as smoke testers. You will be able to confirm your choices and fill out shipping details. Please complete the survey as soon as possible. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me! You will be able to update your address until the Address Lock date. You will also have a chance to select more add-ons in backerkit. I've also included some starter-toasts as an option to purchase since a few backers have requested it! 
Production: Most things are already in production and some are completed already. I'm expecting pins to finish around mid to late September. I may have to limit the shiny toasts if people don't fill out their survey in time. 
Grading: Once everything arrives, I'll grade pins and inspect the other items

Thank you so much for the support!! This project wasn't originally on my project schedule but I've been seeing more dyed enamel pins and wanted to have some of my own ;u; Thank you again for helping me achieve this goal!
