Last Day! More Information on Locked Stretch Goals
3 months ago – Tue, Mar 24, 2026 at 10:45:21 AM

Hi everyone,

We're closing in on the end of the Kickstarter, and there are still two locked stretch goals. If we do not meet the stretch goal of $5000 CAD, I will still make the transfer decals available for purchase - I just won't be able to include them as a freebie.

As for the squishy bread toy, I hope to finish the packaging artwork today to show you guys and this will also be unlocked and available at the time of the survey.

Manufacturer sample

When surveys are sent out, you will be able to make any additional add-ons you wish. At this point, if we do end up pushing over the $5000 CAD with additional add-ons, I will happily include the transfer decals as a freebie for those spending over $50 CAD before shipping/taxes.

I also just wanted to touch upon the tote bag as the sample for the larger size has finished - here is a photo from my manufacturer:

I am much happier with the size of both the print and bag now, and can't wait to see how it looks in person.

Please follow my Instagram page for more updates, as I should be receiving the sample of the coin pouch later today.

Thank you so much for your support!

Cheers,

Xiumai

Updated Samples - Coin Pouch & Squishy Bread
3 months ago – Wed, Mar 18, 2026 at 01:18:02 PM

You can click on the video to see the completed coin pouch sample! I will have it in hand soon to take a final look before putting them into mass production.

I've also got an updated sample on the squishy bread! Here is what it'll look like if you take it out of the PVC wrapping.

There is just a week left for the campaign, and I'm looking forward to making all these designs come to life!

New Stretch Goal: Bread Squish Toy!
3 months ago – Mon, Mar 16, 2026 at 11:21:05 PM

Hi everyone,

We are almost a week away from wrapping up this project, and I wanted to introduce one last stretch goal before then ~ Here is a preview of the bread squishy toy:

Squishies are approximately 8cm and will have the design laser engraved onto it. In addition to the squishy, it will come with a PVC plastic "wrapper" with decorative stickers to mimic the buns you can buy in grocery stores. I'm still working on that, so the design will be revealed a little bit later. You will be able to play with the squishy inside the wrapper, or take it out if you wish.

If you would like to add this onto your pledge, you can edit your existing one as I've made some new add-on tiers for both this and the transfer decal.

As a reminder, the transfer decal is free for all backers pledging over $50 CAD before shipping once we hit the goal of CA$5000. The squishy will follow right after at CA$5300. If you do not qualify for the free transfer decal and/or would like to add more than one to your pledge, you may do in the add-on menu.

Squishies are available at CA$25 and decals at CA$10.

Cheers,

Phone Charms Unlocked! + Other Updates
3 months ago – Tue, Mar 10, 2026 at 10:53:07 PM

Hi everyone,

We have unlocked two out of the three phone charm sets!

The third set will be unlocking at $4050 CAD, and we're very close ~

Some updates on the enamel pins and tote bags:

Here are some manufacturer photos of the pins. I've gone ahead and put them into production already.

The tote bag is getting some upgrades. I'm making them larger because the sample ended up much smaller when I saw it in person.

  • The new size will be 35cm x 40cm
  • The handle will be extended to 27cm in length (previously 23cm)
  • The print on the pocket will be enlarged, cutting off some of the edges so we can see the characters a little better

This is what the sample currently looks like, so the changes listed above will be made for the bulk order.

Cheers,

All Pins Unlocked! + Tote Bag Photos
3 months ago – Thu, Mar 05, 2026 at 11:50:09 PM

Hi everyone,

Thank you so much for the support! Currently all pins have been unlocked. We are really close to unlocking all of the blind bag phone charms, and I've created a freebie for all pledges over $50 to receive the Joker cut-in transfer decal once we reach CA$5000!

I've also received an update from my manufacturer regarding the tote bag sample. Here are some photos:

I think it's possible that the strap is currently too short, but I will wait until I can see the sample in person. If that is the case, I will be extending the length of it (or making it an adjustable strap) before placing the bulk order.

I may also have some pin sample photos to share with you guys soon, so stay tuned for that ~

Cheers,

Xiumai
