Over the past few years, a number of Bagthulhus have gone out to various tasty human victims. Here's a sample of what they had to say ^_^  

You round the corner and see...

A hulking green shape, guarding a mountain of strange polyhedral gems.

What do you do?

Also... we passed the 10k mark! ^_^

First of all, we're closing on 10,000 NZD, so thank you and keep it up, we're getting closer every day ^_^.

Shipping and the call of duties

I've been working on the issue of VAT/GST and customs duties for a while now, and I've got enough information to give a rough guide for shipping the manufactured Bagthulhus (including VAT/GST and customs duties) for the USA, Canada, UK, New Zealand, and the wider EU.

The full shipping guide is on the main campaign page, and I'll be adding it to the FAQ, here's the shortish version (but please check out the full guide on the main page for important info). I'm quoting high in case of unforeseen changes.

Shipping and handling for standard size, manufactured Bagthulhus (including VAT/GST, customs duties, etc)  

• USA - $18 NZD | $12 USD 
• Canada - $17 NZD | $16 CAD 
• United Kingdom - $23 NZD | £12 GBP 
• Wider European Union - $30 NZD | €19 EUR 
• New Zealand - $10 NZD 

NOTES: 

These prices are based on a single Bagthulhu per parcel.

I have been informed that once we have imported into an EU fulfillment centre we can ship freely to other EU countries with no extra VAT and customs duties. I will be confirming this with a broker to be sure.

If your country is not on this list and you would like to back, please let me know. I may not be able to sort VAT/GST for every country, but I'll do my best to make it as hassle free as I can. For the moment, you can use the shipping guide below for an idea of worldwide shipping prices, which does not include VAT/GST and import duties. 

All non NZD prices are rough conversions, the base price is in NZD. 

Shipping and handling for handmade Bagthulhus, Minithulhus, Doublethulhus, and bundles 

• New Zealand (tracked) - $7 NZD 
• Australia - $10 NZD | $10 AUD 
• USA - $16 NZD | $11 USD 
• United Kingdom - $16 NZD | £9 GBP 
• Canada - $16 NZD | $15 CAD 
• Wider European Union - $16 NZD | €10 EUR 
• Rest of the world - $17 NZD 

NOTES: 

All these prices are for untracked service except for within New Zealand. 

All prices are rough conversions, the base price is in NZD.

And don't forget, if we hit our first stretch goal, we can unleash Purplethulhu upon the world!

We're closing on 5k! ^_^

You guys are awesome. Keep sharing and spreading the word about our cuddly overlord.

Tomorrow we'll be filming some Q&A to post next week.

What questions would you like to ask? Which rewards would you like to see? Should I wear a hat? What's it's all about, really, when you get right down to it?

Let us know on facebook, twitter, in the comments, or message directly :). Carrier pigeon would be fine too but Bagthulhu keeps eating them.

In the meantime, take a look at Minithulhu, the Cthulhu accessory that just wants to follow you everywhere and slowly devour your soul. He's handmade by me, and has different attachment points so he can chill on your keyring, in your car, in your hair (close to your nice, juicy brain), anywhere really.

Minithulhu Fhtagn!

Day one of the end of days

Well, that escalated quickly.

We hit 20% of our base goal in 24 hours. So, needless to say, the faithful are awesome.

I've added a rough shipping guide, and here's a glamour shot of Bagthulhu ^_^
