Orders Locking & Pin Video!
almost 2 years ago – Tue, Dec 20, 2022 at 03:26:40 AM

Hello! : ) 

You may have noticed that I've placed a 48 hour notice on order and address locking - this means you have two days to update your address as I prepare to ship things out! After this period (so later this week) I will be charging Pin Only backers for shipping and add-ons. Pins will be going out in early January after the holidays!

Speaking of pins - here's a video showing off all the finished designs! I'm really happy with how they turned out and I hope you like them too!! The Kickstarter video encoding took away some of the crispness of the video but hopefully you can see the details well enough!

I've got in touch with my plushie manufacturer this week for an update and have a few exciting photos to share with you in the form of piles and piles of frogs, haha. Production is actually nearing completion and they should be shipping out to me by the end of the month so I should be on track for an early 2023 fulfillment! : )

Feel free to reach out through Kickstarter/email ([email protected]) if you have any questions and happy holidays!!

Pins have completed manufacturing!
almost 2 years ago – Fri, Dec 02, 2022 at 04:00:35 PM

Hello! It's been a little while since the last update - which is good! Plushie manufacturing is continuing ahead with no issues. :)

The big news for this update is that the enamel pins are now complete and are on their way to me! This means that sometime in December I'll be charging cards for backers in the Enamel Pin Only Tier. I will be making another update soon with more details about when I'll be charging cards specifically and with photos of the pins in hand!

Manufacturing is under way!

Thank you to everyone who has filled out their backerkit survey! There are still 90 or so left so if that's you please fill it out so I can get your froggies on their way to you as soon as they're ready! : )

This update is mostly just to let you all know manufacturing is under way! The next update will be when I'm ready to ship out pin only pledges later this year. 

Thanks everyone!

Surveys sent out! + Halloween Advent Calendar
about 2 years ago – Sat, Sep 03, 2022 at 01:06:31 AM

After a successful smoke test, all of the backerkit surveys have officially been sent out! Please check your email and complete them as soon as possible so I can start placing orders with the factories. 

Pleas keep in mind that your cards won't be charged until I'm ready to ship next year - unless you're a pin only backer in which case I'll likely be able to ship in the next few months. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or problems filling out your surveys! 


Lastly, I also wanted to mention my Spooky Frogs Halloween Advent calendar that launched this morning! It's a 13 day advent calendar that includes 6 enamel pins, stickers, and a bunch of spooky froggy surprises. Check out the product listings for more info! :) frogtreegames.com (US/CAN) / Etsy (EU/UK)

Samples have arrived and surveys are on the way!
about 2 years ago – Wed, Aug 31, 2022 at 11:48:26 PM

Finally the first samples for the rest of the unusual frogs have arrived! I've taken some photos to share with you here as well as embedded them into the Backerkit survey so you can see them before you make your choices!  Here they all are in my slightly crinkly photo tent. : ) And here is an imgur album where you can see all of the samples up close!  

There will be some changes for mass production - specifically cosmic's colours and the print size of the lilypad on pond.  You can see better in the close up but cosmic turned out a little too purple and his tummy needs to be a lot lighter to match the design drawing. 


So now that the samples are here - I can finally start rolling out the surveys! There will be a smoke test first this weekend where a random selection of backers will get the survey to make sure there aren't any major issues. Then, assuming all goes well, I'll send them all out! Please remember shipping won't be charged to your cards until next year when I'm ready to ship!


Feel free to reach out if there are any questions!!
