🎉STRETCH GOAL #3 Custom Mailer Box UNLOCKED🎉


We have heard you loud and clear and are sharing all the upcoming stretch goals with the amount where they unlock. We are so excited to be sharing these! We have SIX FABULOUS stretch goals left...and here they are!
                                                               
                                                                *PLEASE READ TO THE END*

STRETCH GOAL #4: Foodie Sticker Sheet Freebie



The next stretch goal will be this unbearably adorable foodie sticker sheet designed exclusively for us by the amazing Eve Anderson, with a nod to each of the books.

  • Blueberry Smoothie for Kip and Scott
  • Ginger Ale, Cola and Tuna Melt for Hollander and Rozanov
  • Waffle for Ryan and Fabian
  • Mocktail for Eric and Kyle
  • Apple for Harris and Troy
  • Chocolate Cake for Shane and Ilya

Once unlocked we will add one free sticker sheet to every pledge. Extras can be purchased as add-ons.


STRETCH GOAL #5 Unrivaled Art Print Set



We knew folks will want the art for Unrivaled! Once this goal unlocks everyone who has purchased Unrivaled will get a set of prints with all the art from Unrivaled, including the Unrivaled overlay by Blue Giragi. Those who have not purchased Unrivaled can purchase the prints as an add-on.

 

STRETCH GOAL #6: LUXE Boxes for Art Print Combo Set and Backer Backer Voted Dust Jacket + Foiling for Slipcase



We had to do some fancy boxes to hold all this beautiful art!
Once this stretch goal unlocks we also foiling the slipcases.
 
All backers who purchase the Art Print Combo Tier (or add-on the Art Print Combo Set) will receive them in this book shaped box that closes with a magnetic clasp! All sets of the backer voted slipcases will also be shipped in the drawer box. And each slipcase will receive gold foiling.
 

STRETCH GOAL #7: Hockey Amorosa Pin and Sticker Freebie + Plushie Add-On


And of course we had to bring back our fearless leader, our mascot...The one. The only. AMOROSA The Trash Panda of Love.

For this collection our best girl is fitted for the rink in her hockey skates and jersey. She's got her helmet and stick and is ready to score some goals! As always our raccoon was designed by the incredible CC Arts.

Once this goal unlocks all our backers will receive a free Hockey Amorosa pin and sticker.
We will also have the plushie (and additional pins and stickers) available as a paid add on.

Note: The plushie is 12.5 CM long and has a key ring. The plushie will have additional shipping costs.


STRETCH GOAL #8: Freebie Foodie Drink Sleeve & Crossbody Bag Add-On


We are so obsessed with this foodie design we had to make some extra fun items!

Once this stretch goal unlocks we will include a free drink sleeve with every pledge. We will also add the crossbody bag as a paid add-on.

Note: The dimensions of the crossbody bag are: 20.5W*14H*4.5Dcm. The crossbody bag will have additional shipping charges.

STRETCH GOAL #9: Freebie Set of Metal Charms


This one is one of our favorites! We took a few key Loon Lore items and made them into these adorable charms that you can use for your phone, your backpack, your purse! AND we added our two little hockey critters designed by CC Arts as a fourth charm. We are obsessed with this set and cannot wait to get ours!

Once this stretch goal unlocks we will include it with every pledge. Extras will be available as paid add-ons.


We might still have one other trick up our sleeve but these are all our confirmed goals. We know you all are about to crush it and we cannot wait to make all these fun freebies for you!


A few FAQs on stretch goals and the project

We know many people won't read this far into the message, so if you do and you see these same questions posted in the comments feel free to fill in the answers for the community.

Do I have to add these stretch goals to my pledge, how do I know I got them?
We will manually add all the freebie stretch goals to your basket on the back end. You will see them when you get your pledge manager survey after the campaign closes (this is the survey where we collect your shipping address). If you add them to your basket now, that means you want an additional (paid) one. If you just want what is being given for free, you do not need to take action.

We ordered the book club/bookseller tier which has eight copies of the book sets, do we get eight sets of the freebies?
Yes, we will add eight sets of the freebies to your order on the back end. If you would like more than eight of the freebies, you can add them as (paid) add-ons.

Why did you put $10,000 as your project goal? Is that how well you expected the project to do?
The purpose of a campaign goal on crowdfunding sites is to put a limit so that if a project does not achieve that number, it does not fund and the creator does not have to follow through with making and shipping the items, and no backers get charged. We fully committed to doing this project last Fall (well before the public announcement that we were doing it), so we knew we were going to make these books no matter how many people backed it. In our previous campaigns we also put $10,000 as the goal. Our preference would be not to put a goal, but because crowdfunding platforms require you to fill in a box when setting up your page we purposely put a small number. This number does not reflect in any way our expectations of how the project would do. 

Why were there no stretch goals unlocked in the first 12 hours? Why was Unrivaled the first stretch goal?
We put a lot of the accents that would have been early stretch goals into the tiers themselves (ribbon bookmarks, additional embossing on dust jackets, foiling the hardcovers, the Blue Giragi overlays for anyone who purchased in the first 24 hours, etc.). The inital response was so large, there was no time to create and post tiered add-ons. More than in other projects we have done (because of early access and the dedication of this fandom) you blew past our expectations of how quickly numbers would go up in the first couple of hours ($850K in just two hours after the public onsale). The request for Unrivaled was by far the most popular comment throughout the eight weeks of prelaunch this past summer. Because we were listening, we went back to the publisher to secure the permissions to do a print run of Unrivaled as well. Once we had those permissions, there was never any doubt, Unrivaled was going to be the first stretch goal we posted!
