Pintopia 2025 is a Wrap and an Amazing Success!
8 days ago – Fri, Feb 14, 2025 at 06:00:17 AM

Hey, friends! Just wanted to send along a HUGE thank you from the C is for Cthulhu Team for your support of our first every Pintopia project here on Backerkit! We're thrilled to be able to bring some awesome new pins and products to life thanks to your support.



This event was a massive success on Backerkit's end, with all 176 participating projects hitting their funding goals! A 100% success rate is almost unheard of in the crowdfunding space, but all the true pinheads out there made it happen!





What Happens Next? 

Before we can kick off production and fulfillment, there are a few backend things that need to happen: 

First, BackerKit needs to to collect the funding from your pledges. The have already started charging cards so expect an email confirmation from them soon if you haven't received it already. If the payments are declined, please double check and fix your payment method, so I can send out your rewards. Backerkit will transfer funds over to us two weeks from now. 

Once funds are collected, we'll be able to send out your Reward Delivery Survey through Backerkit.  This is where you will be able to select or confirm your pins, make any last minute add-ons to your order, give us shipping address information, and pay for shipping based on the final total weight of your order.



We will give you a heads-up before sending the survey, so that you can watch for it in your email or spam folder. The invitation email contains a link to your personal survey. It is important to submit your responses as quickly as possible, since we need this information to process your rewards.

Note, if you've supported one of our Kickstarter projects in the past, the Backerkit Survey is the same survey we used to complete your Kickstarter orders.  

While we're waiting for Backerkit to do its thing, we'll be finalizing files for all of the new products and working with our pin manufacturer to get these new products ready to roll! 

Just the Start for a Busy Year for C is for Cthulhu! 


2025 could be our most active year yet, as the team is working on a new Halloween C is for Cthulhu book, and a number of new plush toys to join the C is for Cthulhu family later this year.


We're still EARLY on in the prototype stage, but super excited about the new crew!

Thanks a ton for helping our year get off to a great start with the success of this Pintopia launch experiment.

Free Book Download for Pintopia Backers Today!
19 days ago – Mon, Feb 03, 2025 at 08:14:33 AM

Hey, there! It's your pals from the C is for Cthulhu Team, with a special treat for you today!

In honor of us passing the $18K in funding mark, and the excitement of having over 100 FIRST TIME BACKERS discovering us here on Backerkit, we wanted to reward EVERYONE backing this campaign with an extra special treat. 



While Pins & Plushies are among our most popular products, we're BEST known for our amazing Lovecraftian children's books. 




Some people might think Lovecraft kids books is an oxymoron, but from the very beginning, we've always thought that kids' bookshelves should be filled with monsters, magic, and mythos.  We've done our best to translate the best of HP Lovecraft's work into a format that would appeal to young and old-ones alike.

Later this year, we'll be releasing our FIFTH book in the C is for Cthulhu series, which is going to be a Halloween themed book.  We hope many of you will come out for that... The new book will reunite author "Uncle" Jason Ciaramella and illustrator Joshua Janes, and it will be full of Tricks 'n treats!

To get you ready for this... We'd like to give all of you a digital download of Jason and Josh's first collaboration, Counting, Colors & Cthulhu.



NOTE: IF YOU'RE A BACKER OF THE CURRENT PINTOPIA LAUNCH, you should see a downloadable link to get your FREE copy of Counting, Colors & Cthulhu below.

Not yet a backer? Click here to support the new campaign at any level, and you'll then be able to see the FREE download link!

Hey, C is for Cthulhu friends and backers!

We're thrilled to share that this first ever Pintopia launch for the C is for Cthulhu campaign has been off to a smash success!



As we're closing in on 200 supporters, this campaign has already raised over $16,000 in funding, which will give us the funding we need to bring all of the new enamel pins to life. 

One of our goals in taking part in this event was to not only deliver some more delightful C is for Cthulhu merch to our existing fans, but to hopefully expand the reach of our weird and whimsical brand to get in front of some new friends and fans... and the cool thing is, with this launch, we've been able to already do both!



While most of our backers a returning, there are over 80 first time backers supporting this new launch.  That's amazing! Welcome to the C is for Cthulhu family!
