Track Jackets and Pork Army Shirts!

In addition to the Handbooks, we’ve been keeping busy this month preparing three excellent new products for launch: StarguyPK Love track jackets and Pork Army shirts!

The Pork Army shirts, like all of our shirts, come with some sweet 1” pins you’ll recognize from the first pin set. The Track Jackets are both embroidered and come with painfully cool patches.

And, of course, we’re almost done shipping the Handbooks, so we’ll soon be catching up on orders from the past week! If you’ve placed an order recently (or are planning to place an order soon) we’ll be shipping your order sometime early next week.

With these new updates out of the way, Jon, Ryan, and Reid are going to get back to work on the MOTHER 3Handbook website, which we hope to launch in a week or two. In the meantime, please, spread the word about the Handbook and our other merchandise! We live and die by word of mouth from you guys, the fans.

A quick look at some of our upcoming merchandise:

  • FaB Pins
  • Patch Set #1
  • Shirt reprints
  • Gummie Plushies?
  • Shark Punk Figurines?

Handbooks and New Merch Coming!

Long time no update, but we’ve been keeping uber-busy with the MOTHER 3 Handbook which is currently being printed! A few quick facts/updates concerning the guide:

  • The team has put thousands of hours of work into the book. Jon finished the design/layout work last week, and it’s a masterpiece.
  • The Handbook source files are more than 10 gigs!
  • The final page count is 240, with hundreds of illustrations and nearly 50 clay models.
  • In a few days we’re flying out a handful of Fangamer/Starmen.Net folks from all over the US (and we’re even importing a Canuck) to get the books packed and shipped. We’ll be posting some pictures from the Packy Party this weekend!
  • Barring any unexpected problems with the printing, the preorders should be shipped by the end of next week.
  • We’re going to be posting the free online version sometime in April, after everyone has gotten their books in the mail. More on that later.

In other news, we’ve got another big batch of merchandise coming in a week or two, including:

  • Pork Army t-shirts (these are going to be awesome)
  • Embroidered “PK Love” and “Starguy” track jackets!
  • New pins and magnets, maybe our first patch set?

More updates later this week!
