Production completed!

Everything is on track!

Production has completed and all packaging is done.  

We are now waiting for the sea container to be loaded up with the pallets and leave port for the overseas journey to the USA fulfillment warehouse. This is typically a 5-6 week process. There are many factors out of our control.

Shipping for all backers is expected to occur in February (on schedule per campaign details). 

Everything looks amazing! 

I custom designed some special rainbow boxes for packaging which hopefully will help with retail efforts. Each retail box contains 10 packages, one of each color.

There won't be much to update until the container arrives at the USA warehouse.

Happy Holidays and may 2017 be great for everyone!

UberStax Production

Production is going great and on schedule for all 10 colors of UberStax. It's going to take the entire month of December to complete. Then they will be loaded on a shipping container headed for the USA fulfillment warehouse. This usually takes 6 weeks. And then your individual shipping will occur in February. Assuming no problems with the shipping process, we should be on schedule overall or very close.

 The packages are in 6-packs like this (6 pieces of same color per package)

There is a lot of work involved in getting the injection molding done and then individual packages completed

Also I am super excited about the new retail display box I designed for gaming stores to carry. The evangelist and emissary pledge levels will receive these assuming you did not place a custom color order. These display boxes are all "rainbow", meaning they will be populated with 10 different packages, one of each color. This is how they will be sent out to retailers.

Just an example with all white 6-packs. However they will be populated as "Rainbox Boxes" with one of each of the 10 colors.

Pre-Orders Are Available

PRODUCTION

I have received my portion of the Kickstarter campaign funds and have sent payment to the factory to begin production.

SURVEYS

I have received responses from 70% of the surveys. Need to get those remaining 30% completed to help keep the project on track. If you have not completed your BackerKit survey yet (to confirm your shipping address and more importantly the colors you want for your rewards), please do so immediately. Here is a link if the emails sent out this past week got caught in your spam/junk folders.

BackerKit surveys are coming!
over 7 years ago – Thu, Nov 17, 2016 at 07:21:23 PM

I am sending emails with a special link to BackerKit surveys . It is important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since I need this information for fulfilling your rewards. 

You do not need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey, just click on the survey link, fill it out, and you’re all good to go! You will be able to chose your colors, provide shipping information, and pledge for more “add-ons” if you'd like (including storage bags). Check your email for this survey link.

If you decide later that you want to edit your survey response, you can go back to your survey and change it any time before we lock down the surveys for processing at the end of the month. Time is tight so I can place the order with the factory to get things moving along.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you will be able to recover your survey here: https://uberstax-color-expansion.backerkit.com/ 

If you use your Facebook login for your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey will be sent to the email you used for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you would prefer to use, please contact support at https://uberstax-color-expansion.backerkit.com/faq/ and we'll get you sorted out!

If you have friends that missed this campaign and would like to get their own UberStax, there is an opportunity for pre-orders on BackerKit. Send them this link: https://uberstax-color-expansion.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

Limited Edition UberStax Storage Bags
over 7 years ago – Wed, Nov 16, 2016 at 10:34:58 PM

BY POPULAR REQUEST

Even though we did not reach the stretch goal for storage bags, I was able to work out a deal to have some custom limited edition storage bags available as add-ons for only $5ea (no extra shipping). Thank you for all your suggestions encouraging me to pursue this. 

HOW TO ORDER

You will be able to order these optional storage bags when I send out the BackerKit survey in the next day or so. They will be available as "add-ons" and shipped with your campaign rewards in February 2017. 

I just received some samples and they look great!
