REWARD UPDATE: PLUSHIE AND ART BOOK!

For today’s update we’re mixing things up a bit -- our typical monthly Communi-Day has been moved to the 29th in honor of Halloween, leaving us with some space to update you all on the status of a couple of our more interesting backer rewards! Let’s get to it! 

PLUSH, PLUSH HURRY HURRY!

First off, for our lucky Beckers who pledged at the $175 tier or above, here’s some shots of the final version of our adorable Xel plushie! 

It’s made of felt-like material for a softer feel; according to early field tests, it is over 450% more huggable! Plus, it can now stand on its own two...feet? ...Tentacles? ...Orbs? Let’s go with orbs -- it can stand on its own two orbs, all on its own! 

We would estimate the cuteness rating at over 9000 adorbs, but what do you think? 　

One interesting bit of trivia: the production order of 5000+ plushies is estimated to weigh in at a total of almost 1.3 tons! We literally have TONS of plushies on the way! Hope the guys and gals at fangamer have been working out. ;) 

HIT THE BOOKS

We’ve also got a very-early first glimpse at an idea for the artbook / strategy guide. Bear in mind this is only an initial SUPER rough, single spread to start the conversation about layouts and such with our friends over at Udon, but it’s never too early for some constructive feedback. What do you think? 

We’ll be including concept art (from early drafts to final) and detailing the design process for each and every Mighty No, and then some!

Of course plenty of other rewards are in the works, all in different states of readiness, but those will have to wait for future updates. (But fair warning: Art Director Komaki-san has some early box art drafts that everyone internally is swooning over already!) 

In the meantime, as always let us know what you think here in the comments, back on the forums, on Twitter, or our official Facebook page!

PS – Still waiting for more info on our possible bonus DLC mystery...person? We haven’t forgotten! The details are coming soon – perhaps we’ll even get some info as part of our dev update on Nov. 9th...? :)
