Rewards Update
about 1 year ago – Sat, Feb 18, 2023 at 05:31:08 PM

Hello Ghosts and Ghouls!

This is just an update to let you know that I've got some items in recently - the hoodies, deskmats, stickers and microfiber cloths! I'm still waiting on the pins, plushies and charms to arrive.

Here's some pictures of the rewards I have so far!

In the meantime, if you haven't filled out your survey or want to double check it or change your shipping address, please do so via Backerkit as soon as you can! Thank you all so much for your patience and support as always!!

If you have any messages or questions for me please email me, do not leave your personal order information/situation in the public comments! I don't get a notification for those, and all comments are public!

Sample Pics and Surveys DONE!
over 1 year ago – Sun, Dec 04, 2022 at 12:26:22 AM

Plush and Hoodie samples are done!

Plushie options and accessory mini plush

Upon popular request, I’ve made both the mochi type plush and the glowy plush! You’ll be able to select the type of plushie you want during the survey, as well as pick out any of the mini magnetic plushies for your little ghostie to hold onto! You can also get either the main or mini by themselves! Each mini plush glows (I thought only the skull one did, but they all do), so even if you get the non-glowy squishy mochi ghostie, you can still give it little glowy accessories~
  The mini ones were a bit expensive to make, but they’re so cute I don’t want anyone to miss out on them!

Hoodies

The hoodies are looking much better in terms of color, and I’ll be receiving the physical samples soon (I’ll likely post them on my IG stories!). I won’t make many changes to what you see here in these manufacturer photos other than possibly minor seam adjustments.

Surveys

I've just sent out surveys, so please check your spam folders and fill them out as soon as you can! If you have any issues or see anything that's amiss, please email me about it so I can fix it ASAP! Surveys will be locked by the end of Jan, but the earlier you can fill them out, the better. Addresses can still be adjusted at any point before I start fulfilling. I'll make another update when that happens!

Just as a final reminder, the current fulfillment date is an estimate, and may change in the future. I never want to hold your items hostage, so please be as patient and wonderful as you’ve already been!! I really can't stress enough how thankful I am for your patience in allowing me to spend the extra time to improve my products, I love you all!!

If you have any specific questions that aren't answered here, please send me an email or a DM- I don't get notifications for comments on updates, thank you so so so much~

Another Update - No surveys yet!!
over 1 year ago – Tue, Nov 08, 2022 at 12:28:34 AM

Hello again!

I hope you're all doing well, and thanks for tuning into another quick update on Ghoul School 2! I'm still waiting on some updates from my manufacturers on the plushies and hoodies before I send out any surveys.

Plushies

The most recent plush update is that we're working on the mini magnetic plushies that will attach to the ghosties' hands. Once we get them finalized, I'll add them to the survey as add-ons. In my last update, I asked if you would prefer glow in the dark or mochi texture plushes, and after a lot of thinking and feedback, me and my manufacturer have decided to make both. I'm about 70% sure I'll offer both as a choice so you can pick your texture (or both!) of plushie during the survey.

Hoodies

I ended up frustratingly having to swap manufacturers for the hoodies, but hopefully this time the process is much smoother. I'm waiting on new photos to show you all!

Pins

Here's some manufacturer sample photos of a few of the pins!

As always, thank you for your patience and understanding throughout this process. I don't want to send the surveys until I'm able to show you what you're receiving. I will send out the surveys as soon as I have all the information we need - I'm not just being lazy, I promise!

Thank you again and see you soon!!

Campaign Success! I need your opinion on this one!

The campaign is over, and I did not expect to break 50k, but I'm so so happy you are all excited about my ghost merch, and I hope you're all excited to welcome in the Halloween season!!

The surveys are being worked on, so it'll be a bit longer before I send them out. Please read below if you want more information on all that!

Updates and survey progress

1. The ghost plushie is still being worked on. I was recently told by my manufacturer that the glow in the dark fabric is "stiff", and doesn't lend to the round shape of our ghost as well due to the fabric not being as flexible. Our options right now are to opt for a softer, stretchier, more cuddly fabric, but we'd have to go without the glow in the dark fabric. I really really didn't want to have to compromise on my design, but unbeknownst to me and my plushie rep, the fabric turned out not what we expected. We can move forward with the stiffer fabric and keep a glowy plushie, or we can go with a more classic mochi texture plush without glow. Let me know what you think!

2. Hoodies are still in sampling phase - the colors are still not how I want them, so if you are waiting for final pictures before you place your order, don't worry, I'll leave the Backerkit pre-orders open after they're done so you have time to order everything even if you missed the campaign!

I added another size to the sizing chart on popular request! It's called "Candy" and I hope you find your comfiest size here~

3. I'm currently working on the survey, getting everything set up for you guys, but it still might be a little bit before I'm ready to send it out (waiting on ghost plushie magnetic mini accessories and more sample information), so please wait for me!

4. Pins are being sampled and going smoothly so far!

To be honest, I should have made these samples before starting the campaign, but I really wanted to get the campaign out before the end of summer, so I admit that the campaign itself was items were a bit rushed. A lot of the items I debuted in this campaign are firsts for me, so please be patient as I battle these learning curves, and continue to share with me the kindness and understanding that you've already been so generous with!

Thank you again! I'll do my best to keep you updated here, but please follow me on Instagram and Twitter and join my Discord for more timely and frequent updates!

The update you've been waiting for!

Hi everyone!!

Thank you for helping to unlock all the stretch goals!! I'm so excited to be making my first apparel and my first plushies with you!!!

I have some photos for you, because I know many of you have been asking, but PLEASE keep in mind that this is a FIRST PASS of hoodie samples. They will be adjusted to be closer to the original concept. The reason why I'm not showing the fit is because I'm adjusting that slightly too! I wanted to put this off as long as I could so that, but I likely won't get second pass sample photos until after the campaign is over, so please be patient with me, and I hope you like these initial sample pictures!

FIRST PASS HOODIE SAMPLE PHOTOS:

Edits are already in production for the second sample.

Please read the patch notes~

Please Note

• The hoodies are not open to creative suggestions, and I'm doing my best to stay as close as I can to the original concept. This mainly pertains to the colors (please read the notes on the images).
• The ghost plush sample is still in progress, and I will post photos of that as soon as I am able. I'm still waiting for the sample to decide if I want to do the magnetic mini plush attachments.
• If you miss the campaign or want to change your items or address, you can still pre-order everything on Backerkit for a few weeks (or longer) until I need to close them for final counts. Nothing in this campaign is Kickstarter Exclusive except for the Acrylic Charm Freebie.
• Also I apologize for this but I can't respond to all the questions that are answered either here in the updates or in the campaign! It's difficult for me to answer the same questions so many times, with most of the information publicly accessible, so please forgive me if I don't get to your message or comment!

Thank you all again for such a fun and successful campaign- this project has been on my mind for a really long time and I'm so glad I get to make everything in it, all thanks to you!

As always, I'm doing my best to handle everything on my own and provide you with transparency and quality! Thank you all~
