hey everyone here is an exciting update, and one you've all been waiting for ! thank you so much for your patience ! we got the samples in and over the weekend jay was hard at work taking nice photos to show them all off! most of the pins turned out perfect but a few will need changes, you will be able to see the changes written in red on the photographs, but please check them out below we hope you'll all be happy with them !
first is prey ! this pin turned out so nice ! we will just make a few minor edits including fixing the fill error and changing the eyes to glow as well ! we think that will really make her look spooky when the lights are out !
check out the glow effect too !
aqua felis turned out so perfect ! how cute !
stella gelata is looking great with the redesign of the star !
we love the way the moon turned out on bunny !
the halftone effect on catch of the day turned out really cool !
we love the way the glass effect overlaps the moon on cetus !
of sea and sky turned out so pretty, she will be perfect once we get the crown right with a little more glitter to make her shine !
marina looks so good we just love the screenprint details !
koi and starfish... something went wrong and the manufacturer got them all mixed up 😥 we are working to get these samples remade but you can at least see the quality of the pins for now, the helmet looks so cute with the little constellation details !
moon bay turned out so nice except they didnt put the right glitter ! this will be fixed in the final product but don't those moon drips look so good ?
proserpina turned out great ! those pastels are as cute as can be !
stellifer luter is looking cute ! he will have a slight color adjustment to help make his face look a bit less pale !
the pink hues on rosales gelata are just gorgeous !
the gold looks so pretty on puella maris!
look how adorable puffin dreams turned out ! love that glass cutout effect!
sashimi's knife and glitter details are so cool!
draconis looks so nice with the glass ball
seaglass looks super cool with the dangling effect ! we just want to make the glass a little more opaque so that it matches the screenprint details more and then it will be perfect !
floaty boaty is looking really cute too ! we just want to make the glass body a little more opaque so it looks white, and change the eye so it's easier to see !
skyfarer's glitter effect looks beautiful! but the size didn't allow for his eye to be done properly, we'll be screenprinting the eyelid detail on so he looks right !
starcatcher turned out as cute as can be ! we just love how perfect the little stars are !
snare looks so good ! what a friend !
caelum oceanum turned out really cute, the glass really looks like he's swimming through the water !
lastly we also have our bonus item, the inko acrylic standee sample made ! the manufacturer was so kind to do multiple passes and make sure we got them just right 🖤 the standees are currently on the way to us now !
thank you everyone for your patience the samples took a bit longer than we expected but we're excited to move forward. edits on samples is something we expect to be necessary and thats why we order them, so we can be sure the finished product is the best it can be ! we will be waiting for the listed fixes from our manufacturer and try to get photos of those to you guys when we can ! for now, we hope you love the pins so far and we're looking forward to sharing them with you all !
surveys will lock in one week so if you want to add any of these pins to your order now is the time ! cards will be charged for any additional add ons that weren't included in your pledge two days after the surveys close !

hi everyone ! sorry we havent had much to update lately! the samples have taken a bit longer than we expected but we got word today that they will be shipping out soon so we hope to have pictures of those in the next week or two if all goes well !
after we receive the samples we will check for quality and any changes that need to be made ! if there are no necessary changes or only minor ones, then we will be able to move forward with production. if there are major issues and we will need to remake a sample, it may delay certain orders that include that pin but so far the manufacturer photos look pretty good !
we did get our stickers in recently though so we'd love to share:
we're so happy with how the effects turned out and we hope you are too! we will be back soon with an update hopefully with photos of the pins soon so stay tuned !
UPDATE 05/20

hello everyone ! we hope this week has gone well for you all ! we don't have a lot to update today but just want to let people know what's going on !
firstly, the samples are IN PRODUCTION! we have actually gotten a few wip pics of some of the pins from our manufacturer already but will hold off sharing them until they are finished. so far though, we can say they are looking really nice ! we are hoping to have the pins in our hands by the end of the month but it may be early june. at that time, jay will take some nice photos to really show off the designs and we will share them here with you !
speaking of jay, she will be coming to visit pocket soon to scope our her potential living situation for moving north in the fall, she will also be dropping off the pocket's leftover pins from her last kickstarter, "the hunters moon" (don't worry we're both fully vaccinated ! ) . these pins will be going up on jaizure.com and pokettoni.com for anyone who missed the pre order period for those !
most of the surveys have been filled out by now and we have already ordered some of our bonus items, such as the stickers ! we still have 43 people who need to fill out their surveys, if you're having any trouble with yours please let us know so we can help !
lastly, i (pocket) in an earlier update, incorrectly said that dropped backers will not be able to recover their pledge, but thanks to backerkit that is not an issue, so if your card was declined and your pledge was dropped you can still fix your payment information and get your pins ! sorry about the mix up but we hope this is good news for those who had payment issues !
as always thank you everyone for making this project such a huge success we are so excited to see and share these pins with you so expect another update in the following weeks with photos of the new samples !
SURVEY ISSUES FOR ERRORED PLEDGES
almost 3 years ago
– Fri, May 07, 2021 at 10:27:20 PM
hi everyone! by now it looks like most of our backers received their surveys and we're getting a lot in already. thank you for being quick to fill those out !
we've been getting a lot of people confused who have NOT received their surveys however. this is most likely because there was an issue with your payment details and it needs to be taken care of. please check your payment information and make sure your card has gone through or edit the information if it hasn't ! once you are sure your payment was accepted you can reach out to us here via message and we will give you your survey link. please do not comment or contact us on social media regarding pledge issues. when you message us on kickstarter we are given the necessary information to quickly look up your survey and get it to you as soon as possible and with the least amount of trouble !
this will be our final reminder, after tomorrow, you will no longer be able to fix your pledge and your order will be dropped, meaning you will lose out on all your bonus rewards and if you want the pins you will have to purchase them through the preorder store without any discounts or free gifts : (
thank you everyone so far and please let us know if you have any trouble or need help with anything, we are happy to assist !
