Project Update: Surveys close on Wednesday + Plush are HERE!!! + Adopt a Yellow Friend!
Good news.. the Pocket Friends have arrived!! One box didn't make it onto the truck but will come on Tuesday. I wonder who the missing colors are... lol! Anyone want to take a guess?
Can't Accept the Package Now? Moving?
We will begin shipping on Wednesday so make sure your address is up to date! If you are moving and/or cannot accept packages this month, please email me at [email protected] so I can put a hold onto your package. Since we are fulfilling sooner than expected, I wanted to allow flexibility! :)
Natural Color Mix Up.. but don't worry!
So.. the manufacturere made a mistake and mixed up the quantities for the Natural Orange and Natural Yellow Pocket Friends! This is a problem since Natural Orange is the 2nd most popular color... ugh! BUT! Never fear! The factory is currently whipping up the missing Orange friends and they will be expedient shipped to me and arrive next month. We are still way ahead of schedule, but it is still a pain. Also, it means that I have way more Natural Yellow friends that needed.. Despite being one of my favorite colors, yellow is the the 2nd least popular color.. so my house is filled with these little friends! I also had to pay out of pocket to get the Natural Oranges re-made due to mix up and fast shipping so you all can get your friends ASAP.
TL;DR: So to sum it up, anyone who backed for an Orange friend will get them and still have them way ahead of schedule! <3
Wait, I want a Yellow Friend now now to help!
If anybody wants to help by buying a Natural Yellow Friend and adding it to your package (with no additional shipping costs), please let me know! You can email me at [email protected] if you want to adopt a little unloved Yellow Friend for $20 each.
I will make another update on Wednesday to show all the boxes and how we are shipping all your friends!
Project Update: Final Crayon Kitty Sample Photos n Videos!
Hello again!
We've got a little over a week left of the campaign, and we have some fun photos to share!
Here's a look at the final red Crayon Kitty sample!
We're unable to attach the videos in this update, but you can check out the video we made here!
➡️ https://x.com/_scragster_/status/1823064122814353575
We're so close to unlocking the Crayon Kitty in Red and I believe we can reach the purple colorway as well!! 💜
Don't forget! We've added some smaller pledge levels for just the Crayon Kitty doodle pin and Guest Artist merch bundle!
Thank you so much for getting us this far!! 💕 We are just about $2,200 away from unlocking Crayon Kitty! Please keep sharing with your friends to help get the word out, we really appreciate any and all support!
Would it be possible to get some updates on how the shipping is going? I do understand that 4000? Was it? Orders are a lot to handle, but would be nice to know how is it going? All I can do is anxiously wait for the email and the time is long for those who wait. Thank you
Project Update: Massive Samples Update & Backerkit Store Items update!
Hello Noop Troop!
I have some exciting updates to share with you all. This is a big one, so definitely take your time with it!
We received pictures of our first BonBon sample, and while I adore how silly he looks, he is just a bit too off from our 'mock-up' and I am sending him back to the tailors to get a color adjustment.
Here are the 'revisions' in a nutshell:
My hope is the slide color adjustment will balance him back out to be closer to our mock-up.
Pink Lemonade Noopy sample: I have no idea what happened, but he is Meepy sized and floof.
For our new Noopy fans, "Meepy" is the community nickname for when Noopy's get made significantly smaller than intended, thus resulting in a rather ultra durpy stubby appearance..
This is caused by the fabric density and as we have recently started using a much more luxurious fabric material, they sometimes shrink during the sewing process. I am currently working with the manufacturer to communicate how to avoid those shrinkages.
Giveaway Update: Finally curated a graphic to show the key prizes!
Backerkit Store opening Soon! If you're seeing this update and missed out on the main campaign, please check back soon as we are almost ready to get the store opened up.
Here are some items coming to the store (and can be added to existing pledges):
Mystery Magical Noopy & NoopyNu Charms!
In Prototype/Sample stages.. Pet Breakaway Collars!
Better pictures coming soon!
Lanyard Samples Finished and shipping to me!
Prepare for a POLL in the coming days as we vote on final orientation of the art! (better pictures coming soon, of course)
Project Update: Pocket Friends are ARRIVING SOON! Addresses will be LOCKED on 13th!
Pocket Friends have entered the United States.. ah! They arrived so early! We are expected to get everything next week. Once they arrive, we will organize all the packages in order to make shipping as easy as possible for me and our team, then immediately start shipping!
Addresses will be LOCKED on the 13th next week! Please make sure your address is correct in order.
What if I am moving? What if I can't accept the package now?
Please message me at [email protected] and let us know what your new address will be and when to ship. We will mark the order with a "HOLD" notice in order to ensure that your order is safe until you give us the notice to ship.
For everyone else, we will begin shipping next week, or as soon as the plush toys arrive!

Videos and Pictures Incoming
https://youtube.com/shorts/WP4msiLWNao?feature=share
Here is a videos! You'll see there are a few extra's and some upgrades I added in, because you are all worth it! So we now have golden edges and shiny, shimmery writing on the box. It brings the unit cost up quite a lot, but I just wasn't happy with giving you something that I knew I could do better, even if it costs me more, I don't want to give you any less than the best!
With that in mind, as we are so close to finishing this campaign, a reminder I do offer 30 day refunds on anything you don't like, once it hit's your doorstep and I am super willing to make things right if you get anything but the best, let me know!
There are more pictures and videos on my IG! @willbertron

The outside of the bag is very soft, but its like the material of the inside of the bag lining (not the cute themed outside lining) has a very sensory unfriendly feel and sound. Almost like styrofoam. What material is it? Is this normal? How can I fix it?
Project Update: Putting in the Rose the Owl Plush order this week
If you haven't completed your survey yet - please get it done. I want to make sure I am ordering the right amount.
Thank you!
