We have an early bird offer for the first 48 hours.
The project has funded and is on the way to the first stretch goal.
Thanks

BackerKit Surveys Going Out Today
almost 4 years ago
– Sun, Jul 19, 2020 at 08:58:58 PM
Hi All,
The BackerKit Survey will be sent today.
As part of their process, a small group of you have been sent your survey to ensure there are no issues and if any questions pop up that I need to clarify. As soon as I get a majority of those completed, I can send the BackerKit survey to everyone.
Ianticipate shipping the first wave over the next week. I am just awaiting a few more packs to arrive. This does include the new preorder stretch goal packs.
Theprevious update has some pictures of some of the other add-on stretch goals that will be available to add to your pledge.There is also a new ALL-IN pledge level that you can upgrade to to get one of everything including the new stretch goals, save a few bucks and get CTH107 free.
Please read all of the information below:
Soon, you’ll receive an email from us with a special link to your BackerKit survey. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information to fulfill your rewards.
You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey. When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like. You don’t have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!
After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before we close the surveys and get our final counts.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://cthulhu-and-pulp-characters-28mm-minis.backerkit.com.
If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support (yes this is me) at https://cthulhu-and-pulp-characters-28mm-minis.backerkit.com/faq
I anticipate shipping in waves every week until all the surveys are completed. This means that if you submit your survey, I am going to lockyour survey and address, charge your credit card and shipwithin a week. I will send a notice out with the first lock date, so assume that if your survey is submitted, no changes can be made after that and that I will get your product on the way to you.Contact me via BackerKit if you have changes to your survey once submitted.
Stay safe -

Cthulhu and Pulp Characters BackerKit surveys are coming!

Hi All,
Thankyou for your patience.
So it has taken me a little longer than I expected to get the BackerKit set up and ready for approval by BackerKit. There was just alot of learning how to configure different options and just learning the way to set things up properly. Unless there is some issue with the setup that causes a delay, I anticipate the BackerKit survey to go out in the next few days.

Update! Cthulhu and Pulp Characters Kickstarter
almost 4 years ago
– Fri, Jul 03, 2020 at 08:07:01 AM
So, yes I have been silent for a while.
With businesses shutting down with Covid due to government lockdowns that threw a big monkey wrench into getting the Kickstarter filled on time. My molding and production team had made great progress before the shutdown. There were only a few packs in the kickstarter that still needed to be master molded when the shutdown started. We also had some of the production molds finished and had started casting some to get a head start on that process.
So where are we now.
A few weeks ago, my mold maker and caster was finally able to reopen and have staff return. The master and production molds for the packs in the kickstarter are now all complete.
Casting is currently underway, so the kickstarter cast ship in a few weeks.
So where is the survey?
I changed course and decided to use a service called BackerKit for the survey, add-ons, late backers and payments post kickstarter. Those who have participated in my previous Kickstarters know that I used a forms software program and put together the process myself. I will say that with the pandemic pushing me to and past my limit in regards to time necessary, the choice to use BackerKit was obvious to me once I decided to try the software. (why the heck did I wait so long to try purpose made software?)
I am finishing up the BackerKit set up and then will have the survey out. I am targeting to have it to you on Monday. I also decided that for your patience I will be adding some of the stretch goals we never got a chance to hit to the BackerKit survey. These packs will be available as add-ons and as well as an upgraded pledge level that you can choose assuming that enough of you order them. Your product totals (less your kickstarter pledge amount you paid to kickstarter) plus shipping will then be charged at the survey cut off date. If you are in NJ, I do have to collect sales tax.
Below are some pictures of castings from the master molds.
Here is one of the Stretch Goal packs - BG-CTH002 The Moroccan Assistants (3)
BG-CTH002
There were additional stretch goals that we did not hit, but that we did show the miniatures:
BG-CTH011 Cultists
BG-CTH009 Tomb Guards
BG-CTH008 American Explorers II
BG-CTH008
BG-CTH014 American Aviators I
BG-CTH014
BG-CTH013 Moroccan Henchmen I
BG-CTH013
BG-CTH015 Moroccan Henchmen II
BG-CTH016 American Explorers III (female)
We never revealed pictures of these packs:
BG-CTH016 American Explorers III (female)
BG-CTH017 American Aviators II (female)
BG-CTH018 American Aviators III (male)
BG-CTH019 News Crew
BG-CTH020 Lighthouse Watchmen
BG-CTH021 Bosun Mates (hybrids)
New Deep One - MiGo
The greens for the never revealed items are all in hand and already at my molder. In order to release these packs I really need to do the kickstarter as this was a big investment for BG. Alternatively, I can potentially set this set of minis up as additional stretch goals in BackerKitwith their own shipping date assuming that the packtarget goals are met. If the target goals are not met then I would have to run a second Cthulhu Kickstarter for these otherpacks.
Hang tight. It wont be long.

So Where Are We At

Hi All,
Well if Covid19 didn't disrupt the process, we would have been shipping product by now as we made great progress on everything before this crisis.
Our mold maker has been closed and I am waiting on a few molds to be completed.
I am working on the survey and will have that to you shortly.
