Alright folks here we go!!! The factory has been in touch with updates and here they are!
1: Thank god for the Quality Control period!!! Pics I was sent had her pants colors painted INVERTED!!! I was like...uhhhh...no! Problem solved lol
2: Paint is underway on the body parts and now the focus is on the face! Only the eyes remain they say to "get rid of the dead stare" lol
3: Boxes and packaging are all finished so once the eyes are done they will be painting and building the figures for you!
I have been told they are hoping to be totally finished and prepping for shipping to us in about 2 weeks. Id expect sometime near the end of the month. Once I hear from them on that we will have a more specific time frame for them arriving and getting out the door to you!
And lastly, I have begun shipping the orders without the toys in them! Watch your emails for tracking and your mailboxes for those books and prints! The pins finally showed up so I am attacking the orders this week to have them done and leave only the toy orders to go I am assuming sometime late July!
As always I appreciate your patience. This has been a learning process for sure and when we come back for a new figure...possibly for our 15 year anniversary in 2025...we will be far more prepared for ALL of it!!!
Im as frustrated and excited as you all are lol but we are almost there!!!
TWO UPDATES!

Step one...the figure. I have been told the factory is finalizing the Dynamite 3 pack to go out the door within two weeks. After that, Critter is on deck to get into its final phases! Once I hear anything more concrete about us stepping to the plate I will for sure let you know! Remember please...this is not a comic. This is a massive world wide mechanism to create these action figures. I have no ability to speed them up. I'm waiting as anxiously as you are...TRUST ME :) Thanks for your patience as we dip our toes into the merchandising world of toys!
Step two...all the other stuff! Stretch goals are coming and and we just need the pins to finalize those extras for you. Once those are in all orders with just books or prints etc will head out the door. Im hoping to have this finished no later than the end of April...as I dont yet have a date for the pins to show up but I'm expecting them this month. Again, once shipping on book orders begins I will let you know but ALL OF IT is right around the corner!!!
This has been an exciting and frustrating campaign. For you and for me. But I think in the end, we are going to have produced something truly exciting and unique that will not only be good for us at Big Dog Ink, but also for any small creator who wants to try to do what we've done here. Everyone appreciate your support and understanding as we simply are waiting on the factory to tell us what happens next!!!
Thank you!!!
PROGRESS IS HAPPENING!

Quick side note update. the figures being produced in line ahead of us...the Dynamite figures for Purgatory and Red Sonja...are being shown off in their final painted forms by the company! That means Critter is right behind them. With the Chinese New Year happening, I wont get any new updates till february for us, but with those figures about to be finalized...and they are about a year behind in production...we will be up next!!!
