Hey Everyone!
Going to be the last update for a hot minute and I'll explain why below. My next batch of updates will be discord only for a hot minute. Here's the just of what went on this week and whats happening next month.
1) Last Batch of Sailor 1 & 2 is looking like they'll land March and April. This is due to the current supply chain issue. I know I was promised that things would smooth out by end of the month but I'm starting to believe the issue is worse than what we know.
2) Speaking to other printers. I got out of a meeting with a VERY popular printer at the moment and they are telling me that their turn around time is around 6-8weeks now. And they're slightly more expensive. That being said I have another printer in mind that now has a turn around time of two weeks. This is who I'm more than likely going to use for when RAGS 8 is ready to rock.
3) Next week 24 and 25 January I'll be out of town. So, all artwork update from Luigi and the team will be uploaded via discord as I get them.
4) Still have some statues left over. Order form is in the crowdfunding channel is discord.
5) Jan 30th till FEB 11th I'll be out of town again to get some training but also going into my SEC+ study sessions. If things go well, this should be complete by July 30th.
7) HARD COVERS (see 2) At the end of 2020 I know I promised hardcovers. Unfortunately the individual I was working with passed away to covid. Last night I had a late meeting trying to get this back on track. I'm looking to order about 200. So I'm getting a qoute for that. I'll get a pre-order standing by for that once I get a qoute. About 4-5 will be set aside for the main team so we're looking at about 194-ish.
With Supply Chains being as impacted as they are, it may be prudent to re-evaluate how we get books printed and out to you. I'm brainstorming ideas, trying to stay Gumby during a time where everything is volatile and things are drastically changing at the drop of a hat.
I'll keep everyone posted as I figure it all out.
