The CONPANION

Created by Art by Kino

The CONPANION is a multi-functional backpack designed specifically for convention travel! With two clear window compartments, D ring accessories and a built-in print case, the CONPANION is the only companion you'll ever need!

We did it!! Every single colorway for the Conpanion has been unlocked! Our next goal is at 40k, where every single backer who pledged for a physical reward tier will receive a FREE enamel pin in addition to their other rewards!

Wow, funded in only 2 minutes!! That's a new record for me, thank you everyone SO MUCH for your support!

But, we're not done yet! We have lots of stretch goals still to go! Our next stretch goal is funding the Cobalt and Bubblegum Conpanion colorways! Please share the campaign with your friends and those you think would love a new backpack!

Launching in 14 hours! How are we feeling?

Are you guys as excited as I am about The CONPANION?? This is a concept I've been working on for a few years now and I'm so stoked to actually get to see it come to life with your help. We have so many exciting color schemes to choose from and lots of accessories to accompany the backpack itself. Which color will you be choosing during the survey at the end of the campaign? Have you already shared the campaign with your friends?

I put together a little "What's in my backpack?" graphic as an artist alley vendor!
 

Plush toy updates + new conpanion pics

Hey guys! I have some photos for you of some of the plush toy samples! They're pretty much completed, so you can see how cute they are :)


We're still working on the bendable tentacle so I will definitely post pics of it once it's finished!

Additionally, I have some more photos for you of the Conpanion itself! As you can see, it can hold your larger trinkets in the clear windows very well!


Are you guys also excited for the Conpanion to drop? What accessory are you most looking forward to? Let me know in the comments!

New plush toys added!

Hey guys! I couldn't decide if I only wanted the most voted option, so I added the two most voted options--both the teeth ball AND the bendable tentacle! Check out all three plush toys that will be available during the campaign!
