Latest Updates from Our Project:

Frog update #6 - Upcoming stretch goal frogs
21 days ago – Sun, Feb 02, 2025 at 08:09:31 AM

Ribbits everyone! 🐸

Thank you all for voting on the poll about the next stretch goals. We have some clear winners and the following frogs will be unlocked when we reach new goals:

€7000 - Black rain frog (already unlocked!)
€8000 - Fire-bellied toad
€9000 - Tomato frog
€10 000 - Fringed tree frog


The Fringed tree frog only won by one vote from Phantasmal frog, but it's a very cute poison frog so I'm bound to make it for any future Poison frog campaigns! Here's a screenshot made on February 2nd with the votes in the poll.



I better get to sketching the frogs, especially the Black rain frog, as it's already unlocked. Like to see if I can make it into a special recessed metal to get his skin texture under it. Next update I'll show the designs for the last 4 frogs. 🐸🐸🐸🐸

Also, happy halfway through the campaign-day! There's still time to switch pledges and to unlock these last three frogs. Last day is on 13th of February! Feel free to share the campaign with friends or other frog lovers who'd love to get a Frogtastic Frog enamel pin.

Have a toadally awesome day everyone!✨

Frog update #5 - Choose which frogs will be unlocked!
26 days ago – Tue, Jan 28, 2025 at 09:41:30 AM

Ribbits everyone!

Thank you all for the frogtastic suggestions, I've been collecting them and made a poll for the frogs I like the most for this campaign.

There were a lot of poison dart frog suggestion, which I toadally get because they are super cute and colourful, but I'd like to play with the idea of making a future crowdfunding campaign of only Dendrobatea, aka poison frogs! (And the same goes for toads and possible salamanders in the future.)

Very curious to see which frogs will get the most votes. I have 4 slots to be filled so 4 frogs with the most votes will be picked from this poll!

Have a frogtastic day everyone!

Frog update #4 - New stretch goals added!
28 days ago – Sat, Jan 25, 2025 at 01:03:49 PM

Ribbits everyone!

These first 48 hours of the Frogtastic Frogs campaign has completely blown me out of my frog pond!
I dreamed to unlock a handful of frogs. To have about 5 or 6 frog unlocked and to start the enamel pin adventure again and reuse the locked frogs for a later campaign.
That said I have now doubled my max goal and can add more fun stuff, all thanks to you frog lovers!

The first new stretch goal I had in mind are board fillers.
Thank you so much for voting on the poll and letting me know to make tadpoles, not leaves! Very clear message about that: not enough tadpoles!!
So the first new stretch goal was set at €6000 to add a set of board fillers (3 tadpoles) to all backers with 3 or more pins. The set can also be purchased later. This stretch goal was met this morning actually, so that's awesome! Uh.. I, uh... need to get to the drawing board and draw them asap, ahaha.

Next up are a new frog designs as extra stretch goals.
Starting at €7000 until €10 000, for each €1000 made, one new frog will be added.
I've been collecting suggestions and I'm still open for them so feel free to add your favourite!
When I've made an selection I'll reach out again with a poll to decide which frog will be unlocked first.



Thank you again so much for this frogtastic event! 
Wishing you a toadally awesome weekend!

Frog update #3 - What would you like to see next
29 days ago – Fri, Jan 24, 2025 at 10:47:43 AM

Ribbits everyone!

The first 24 hours of the campaign are over and I'm still so stunned and happy with how it is going. Thank you all so much for the support so far!

I've been thinking on how to proceed further. Do we add some stretch goals, do we keep at it or something else. And I thought, why not ask the backers.

Board fillers would mean little enamel pins in the shape of (for example) leaves, tadpoles or other decorative options.
Colour variants would mean certain frogs in different colours. For example: Pacman frog is also a known pet in the albino variant, different colours of the White's tree frog, etc.
New frogs Very simple, we continue on with adding more frogs! Which we will vote on. Tomato frog, Vietnamese moss frog, Lehmann's frog, Golden poison frog, etc, etc. Just to name a few examples.

Would love to hear your suggestions about either of these options in the poll. Especially if you choose the 'New frog' option! Which frog would you like to see?

Wishing you all a frogtastic early weekend!

Early Frog 48h freebie 🐸
about 1 month ago – Sat, Jan 18, 2025 at 06:04:21 AM

Ribbits everyone 🐸

We're only a few days left till Pintopia and thus Frogtastic Frogs goes live.
Time to show the Early Frog 48h gift!



For those who are Early Frogs I'd wanna offer an extra freebie: sticker sheet set with all 12 frogs on them!
The sticker sheets will be A6 size (around 4x6") with both sheets containing 6 different stickers. They are splash proof but not waterproof, they are not vinyl stickers!

These sticker sheet sets are added to those who pledge within the first 48h of Frogtastic Frogs going live. 
They can also be found as add-on when pledging after 48h for a small payment of €5. You'll still get both of them, so it's always a complete set. The Early Frog backers just get it for free!

Looking forward to seeing how it'll go, have a great weekend everyone!
