There has been another email update for the Usuki merch bag:

Hey Neopians!

Just wanted to give you an update on the UsukiCon swag bags! On the back-end, the Christmas season and then the Chinese New Year means a lot of things grind to a halt for sample iterations before production (and molds for projects like these are expensive!), and getting them back on track afterwards can take awhile. We really wanted to make sure everything was as it should be before the molds got finalized, and doing things like the paint treatments took some evolutions.

We're finally nearing the finish line, just a few weeks left to get the dolls finished and shipped, and then we'll be doing some bag assembly and starting to get them out the door!

Thanks for your patience while we worked some of the kinks out of the Usuki doll, and endured the respective holiday slowdowns It's always interesting seeing new projects and product types come to life, and we learned a lot along the way, which'll help streamline some of the next things we've got in mind. This will be one of the more interesting of the Neopets projects we've worked on, with so many different components, and hopefully captures that UsukiCon joie-de-vivre.

On that note, suggestions for new Neopets merch are always welcome, and we love working to serve up some of the more unique merch for the fans - send us ideas and requests if you've got them! We'd mentioned last time that there was a Neopets RPG in the works, and for anyone interested we have an email signup for it in place now:

As always, if you need to adjust your orders, please let us know!

Sincerely,

Are they joking IT'S NEARLY APRIL. Their last email said end of February and they've been blaming Christmas and Lunar New Year since early December. "Just a few more weeks" they say, as though they have not said that several times. And then they solicit ideas and put in advertising lol

i got the email as well. hopefully when they say a few weeks they mean it this time.

i never wound up cancelling cause i was like well i already counted that money spent. would love to see a shopping notif in my inbox soon, but we'll see

Hey Neopian!

We finally got word from the factory that they've completed coloring on the figurines and will be sending them our way after they're all packaged. Most everything else is ready to rock, so we just need to receive those, get everything shipped off to the Neopets team for approvals, and pack and ship the individual bags and send them on their way.

We know it's been a long wait! We'd mentioned before that we weren't idling with the time, and added a few more goodies to the bag while we had time to develop them, one of which is a UsukiCon snap bracelet. Despite being a pretty tiny production run, you'll be getting some good bang for your buck with what's inside, plus the unique item code (a unique UsukiCon wearable). Since this will be the only way to get that wearable, it's going to be pretty prized (among Usuki fans). We appreciate all your patience, and thanks again for the opportunity to create something a little more wacky and unusual for the Neopets fandom!

As always, keep us up to date if you need to adjust your order!

what a day, Sid in the battledome and actually sounds like the Usukicon bundle will be shipped soon

Based on /~Spoilerss I'm guessing this is the unique item code.

I'm glad Geekify is nearing the finish line with the Usukicon bags. But I probably won't preorder from them again. ?
