Game Toppers 4.5 Fulfillment Update & Essen Spiel
about 1 month ago – Thu, Oct 03, 2024 at 10:08:49 AM

Hello Game Topper Nation!

Fulfillment:

Josiah here with a quick update regarding our beginning stages of fulfillment. We have been quite busy gathering information and placing product orders, we expect the majority of new products to reach us sometime around the end of November at which point we will begin the majority of fulfillment for US and Canada starting with the stretch goals that promised early delivery in 2024.

UK and European fulfillment will still be in early 2024 as previously planned.

In the meantime, there are some pledges that ordered products we already have enough in stock to cover the needs for this campaign. For those US pledges which are not waiting on new products to arrive, we are going to begin shipping out as soon as next week! 

This is NOT the vast majority of pledges, but ones which will ship out will start to receive Address verification emails to confirm the shipping address. If you happen to receive one of those emails, you can expect your pledge to ship shortly!

Essen Spiel:

If you happen to be at the Spiel in Essen, Germany this year you can visit Burky in the Game Toppers booth. We are in Hall 1, booth # 1A211

We have limited quantities of game mats and Toppers available at the show, so if you are interested get them while you can! It's a fantastic way to save on the international shipping costs.

Conclusion:

If you have any fulfillment related questions please send me an email at [email protected] and I will be happy to help!

We'll be back with another update sometime in the next couple months as we draw closer to the majority of fulfillment or possibly sooner if there is relevant information to share. Until then, thank you as always for your continued support. We really mean it when we say we have the best backers out there!

Hello Game Topper Nation!

Burky here with some exciting news, the pledge manager surveys are live and there are about 28 percent of backers left to complete! Please feel free to reach out to Josiah at [email protected] if you need any help. Please make sure your kickstarter email is not caught in spam folders. We are placing product orders right now so it would really help us if you could fill out your survey. So far everything is on pace.

If you have any questions regarding the process, please send me an email. Any comments on the Kickstarter will just be directed to Josiah anyway, as it can be difficult to correlate specific Backerkit surveys to Kickstarter usernames. Also, sometimes the answers may require sharing some specific order details and other private information (like your address) which we don't want to share publicly.

There are some amazing Mat Bundles to take advantage of before this goes away. Buy 4 at amazing low prices and get a 5th free! That is an unheard of price as low as $39.60. EA.

There are detailed pictures of our mats on our website if you need more visuals to decide www.gametoppersllc.com also our YouTube channel has several video from past campaigns showing detailed information.

I wanted to make you aware of our friend Chad Elkins from 25th Century Games has an fantastic Kickstarter running right now on one of my favorite auction games, Deluxe RA and now the new traders expansion and the new RAandWrite.

 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/chadelkins/ra-pharaoh-edition-reprint-and-more/posts/4199661

They are knocking it out of the park with this one. So many cool offerings. ...but wait there is more... We worked out a deal with them to offer the 3ft x 4ft and 3ft x 5ft size Ancient Egypt mat by Yaroslav to their backers. Chad if offering these two sizes as amazing add on prices.

 If you like Auction bidding and beautiful deluxe production you will definitely want to take a look.  It looks so great on our Egypt mat!!!!

Please fill out your surveys as quickly as possible. It really helps us gather information for product ordering, as well as allowing us to start the fulfillment processes sooner rather than later!

 Thank you all for another successful campaign! We are excited to move onto the fulfillment stage of the campaign. We will be back with more updates in the coming months as that process begins.

Burky, Josiah and the Game Toppers Team.

Project completed update and news. 8.16.24
3 months ago – Fri, Aug 16, 2024 at 01:40:52 PM

Greetings Game Topper Nation!

You did it!!! Congratulations. I am so grateful each and everyone that supported the campaign and help us signal boost these cool gaming upgrades! Thank you! The team here put our whole hearts, not only in putting on the campaign, but creating these new items and providing extra value for our long term loyal backers. What a great community! I'm using too many explanation points because I am so thankful! Many thanks to all our media influencers, Jay Shelanskey who did an amazing job on the products and presentations, My son Josiah who has been an absolute trooper during a challenging time for him with his arm injury and subsequent surgery, and preparing for the little joy of his new born William, and lastly, my dear wife Joan who has help us in the warehouse and provide support during the ups and downs of a campaign. 

  • I will make this short...

We came within $1250 of meeting the 75,000 Stretch Goal. Even though it wouldn't be required, I have decided to reward everyone anyway by unlocking 4 of the 5 - $75,000 stretch goals.

This will be a question in the pledge manager for you to take advantage of at this discounted price.
Who doesn't need more mat bags?
Funny, I got a call from a backer asking specifically wanting these two mats. I was struggling with the demand. These are so gorgeous and so perfect for our XL sizes that  I decided to take a risk and produce these for you. I hope I am right.
My Xl Backers need a deal too!
  • What's next

Josiah will be working on the Backerkit Late pledge manger where you will be able to take advantage of all the "Backer Boosts", Unlocked Stretch Goals, all the Bundle Deals, and other add on items. We expect this will take about 1 week or so. This is very quick compared to most. This will allow you to fill out your pledges so we can immediately start the ordering process for all the new items to get these items into you hand as soon as possible. Here are a few of those items that will be nice add ons.

I know.. it is a lot of goodies, and there will be a few more not listed here, so don't worry. When you see the pledge manager you will see it's as easy as answering a few questions for your choices and adding items to your cart, I promise.

I have a scheduled camping trip that I'm going to take with my wife next week to try to sharpen the blades so to speak and recharge. Josiah and I will still be in contact to make sure everything runs smoothly. 

If you have any questions please email [email protected] and we will be happy to help you with any concerns or questions.

Again, Thanks you so much and stay tuned. 

Burky and team!

Last Day Specials and update: 8.15.24
3 months ago – Thu, Aug 15, 2024 at 09:05:19 AM

Greetings Game Topper Nation!

Thank you all again! Welcome to all the new Game Topper backers! I know I keep saying it, but I am super grateful for all your continued support.

After some long number crunching and thinking with my team I have decided to pull out all the stops. The "Backer Boosts" is a new thing I have never done before that can save people hundreds of $$$$. This was done to invigorate the campaign with some enthusiasm and provide some amazing extra value. Also see below "new and improved" Stretch Goals!

  • Backer boost #1 Free extra Mat with our Packages. This will be automatically added for these pledges. You will choose your style in the pledge manager
That means 2 mats with every package Free, no extra shipping! It's a big deal. 
  • Backer Boost # 2  If you add on the "Satchel Bundle" (that is the Leg Kit and Dinning Cover) with either one of the pledges available or as an add on in the pledge manger you will get another mat free. (If you want just a Leg Kit or a just the Dinning Cover these will be available separately in the pledge manage too, but will not get the Free mat.)
This will automatically be added with a pledge or the add on in the pledge manager.
Save from our regular prices and get a FREE Mat
  • Backer Boost #3: I have decided we will print a limited amount of the Fantasy vinyl wrapped acrylic inlays with the fantasy theme in Watson and Mycroft. These will be an add on the pledge manger and are "hot swappable" with the galactic rails, Note: We intend on introducing more styles in the future to enhance your options of the thematic rail systems.

This is the video of the rails with close up view of the vinyl graphics being applied. Super cool, you can see the attention to detail we go to. 

Backer Boost #4 after much thought, these 2 3/4" wide x 24" long 3 mm, double stitched rail pads were such a hit I just decided, let's just print some in the Galactic design. So now you will have 4 styles to choose from in the pledge manger. I should have brought  50 of them to Origins they were so popular. They look and feel great next to your keyboard too.

These fit on any rail. standard or lux and do not interfere with the card slot feature of our rails.

We have unlocked 15 stretch goals with the Backer Boost help!!! We are close to unlocking the 4 mat bundle. 

Again, after much thought I decided to rework the last Stretch Goals. I have added 5 more at the $75,000 milestone. I'm sacrificing some margin, but decided let's pull out all the stops and really go for it. If we can hit it, I wanna give back.

This 5th pack will be in addition to the value of any pledge level. War Master, War Zone, or Master Strategist. Also, if you just add 4 individual packs or add one of those bundle pledge levels that will be available in the pledge manager you will get the extra pack FREE
This will be an add on question for Reichenbach Falls pledges to add on as a discounted price. They will also be available at the double mat bundle levels. It's just a really good deal for that package.
  • You asked for them! I heard ya. These are my most costly mats to produce and inventory.

Double XL Mat bundle to be unlocked at $75,000

Sorry, need to get the graphic fixed, this should say 75,000 Goal

There ya have it! I am excited to see what the last 24 hours will bring. We have a bunch of advertising going out today. If you see our ads on Facebook, Instagram, X or YouTube please share them.

 The campaign ends Friday, noon CDT. We hope to have the pledge manager launched within a week or so afterwards.

PS. Josiah and Sarah and baby William Joseph Burkhardsmeier 8lbs.8oz are all doing well and so is grandma and grandpa. :)
