Leg kits are shipping! BIG Kickstarter announcement! 5-10-22
almost 2 years ago – Tue, May 10, 2022 at 06:33:26 AM

Greetings Game Topper Nation!!!

Good News! Leg kits have shipped to Canada and by the end of the week all of the USA leg kit orders should be out. Hope you saw the last update.

New instructional assembly video is up.

 Leg Kit Assembly Video on our website. please reference for instructions.


So I'll make this quick.

We are Launching Game Toppers 3.5 Kickstarter today 10 AM CDT!!!

Kickstarter link

 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/burky/game-toppers-35-upgrading-every-game-you-play 


We have been working like crazy to make this happen. This will be a very quick fulfillment campaign!

It only runs from May 10th to May 27th featuring the new LEG Kit for the Moriarty and Mycroft (which was not available before) for Delivery Overseas in July and Aug for USA and Canada

We have fulfilled 90 percent of our pledges, but due to the delays on the dining covers, 

Overseas orders cannot be shipped until we receive these (they are being cut now and ready for powder coating soon. I'll send more videos as we get them) so we decided to run a mini campaign that would allow our overseas backers to place addition pledges and include these new items and allow more to get in on the package savings! We feel this is a big win without causing any more delay to their orders.

 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/burky/game-toppers-35-upgrading-every-game-you-play 

We have also made some really cool packages and stretch goals to reward our existing backers to enjoy  savings on items you may have missed or want to now add on. As you know everything  has gone up in price and inflation is everywhere! WE have kept some of our Mat bundles the same price and even more special prices during the campaign. 


We hope you will join us in helping bring new people into Game Topper Nation and upgrade everyone's gaming experience!!!!


I'm going to super swamped today, but will do my best to respond to all requests.

If you have any concerns or shipping related issue please email [email protected]


Thanks kindly!!!!

Burky and team!!!!



May Leg Kit delivery update & BIG NEWS!
almost 2 years ago – Sat, May 07, 2022 at 08:31:00 PM

Greetings Game Topper Nation!

It's turning spring finally in MN. Just like the weather things are looking up. We have some BIG NEWS! See bottom of update!

We just finished packaging over 700 leg kits. It was quite a task with all hands on deck.

See last update: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/burky/game-toppers-30-upgrading-every-game-you-play/posts/3481879

Some of the many Leg Kits ready for shipment.

Canada shipment:

The shipment pick up for Canada looks like Monday. Some of you will also be getting Cardboard covers for cup holders that were not available on the last shipment. It takes about 2 weeks for the order to arrive at the Fulfillment Center in Toronto, and then they will be shipped to your door. You should then receive a tracking number from Canadian post. All in all, about 2 - 3 weeks to your door.

USA shipment:

We will be starting sending Monday as well. Generally, 3-5 days shipment. We should have them all out by next Wed.

Leg Kit Assembly video coming:

Each leg kit will have a parts list and QRC code to see our install video we made for you for easy install and tips. Please take the time to watch and it will make the install a breeze.


Dining Covers:

They are in production now!!! All details have been approved and packaging requirements met.

I'm hoping to get some production pictures and video next week. If all goes well, these will be ready to ship in 20-25 days and about 30-45 days to get here depending on port availability. We are targeting July/Aug Arrival. This will coincide with shipping all overseas orders! Yay, I can't wait to get these to everyone! Our warehouse is jammed packed.

Full warehouse with orders ready for packing overseas and upcoming K.S. pledges.

 Big News!

We are doing another Kickstarter! Game Toppers 3.5! 

Coming May 10th to May 27th

You might ask why you are still shipping some overseas pledges? Well, that's exactly why we are doing it! As you know from past updates it has been a very challenging process to acquire some items. (We have successfully delivered over 90 percent of all the last campaign with glowing reviews) The cost has gone through the roof on many items including shipping costs. The one big item we were not able to offer on the last campaign was the Leg Kits for the Mycroft. I asked everyone to please bear with us as it was in development. Well, one huuuuuuge silver lining in all these delays is that we have engineered a universal center support bracket that comes in 2 parts, bolts together, and can now accommodate the Watson, Holmes, Moriarty an Mycroft toppers ...and it's even a stronger design than before. We are so thrilled about this innovation. 

New Leg kit for the Mycroft and Moriarty

This new Game Toppers 3.5 Kickstarter will not delay any of the current overseas shipments further as we are only running for 17 days - May 10th to May 27th! The late pledge manager will open before the UK Games Expo June 1st, so overseas backers, current and new can get in on the package deals and add an order for items that were not offered before or just get more stuff. 

I will be at the EXPO and we need some booth help. Message me if interested. 

The other reason is it keeps the shipping cost down on overseas pledges and it will be a while before we have another shipment there. 


Every thing has gone up, gas, groceries, Pit Boss Smokers. (guess how I know that) well, it's same for us. As much as it pains me, we are going to have to increase our prices, but the good news is much of what we are offering on this mini campaign will reward current Game Topper Nation backers with special KS 3.5 pricing on mat bundles, accessory bundlesand even getting an additional package as many have done. It also allows us give everyone a chance to add a pledge to the current overseas shipments. This will be a very quickly fulfilled campaign as well!!! We feel this is a win for everyone!


Our next Game Toppers 4.0  KS is scheduled for next year in April. We are super excited about 6 new mat styles, new accessories, new limited edition toppers, and some top secrets stuff, but it will be a long wait till we send another containers overseas,  so now is the time! It will be a very limited window to take advantage of Game Toppers 3.5.

Lastly, we have a big give-a-way!!! There are many ways to enter! It Launches tomorrow.

Many ways to enter to win a mat rack and bundle of mats!

Thanks again everybody!!!! You are truly the best backers I could have every dreamed of.  Together we are upgrading everyone's gaming experience!

Please help us share this upcoming campaign on social media and with your friends. 

All our best!

Burky and team.


The Leg Kits have arrived!!!! Plus Canada and Overseas News. 4-14-2022
almost 2 years ago – Sat, Apr 16, 2022 at 12:52:32 AM

Greetings Game Topper Nation!

I have great news!

The wave 2 fulfillment of items has arrived in Canada at Pick and Pack logistics (except for leg kits and dining covers). We have been told by next Wed all packages should leave the facility and you should be receiving Canada tracking numbers so keep an eye out and check spam if you don't get one by next week. (...and this tracking number should work compared to the BackerKit one that just identified the truck not individual pledges).


I have more great news! The Leg Kits have arrived. This container which included our leg kits, player shields, accessory game banks, and Game Haul bags had all been ready since Oct, but incurred 3 bumped ship delays as well as a 70 day ocean voyage that should have been 35, so I was a bit nervous about the condition of the shipment. To our delight, we opened up several box pallets and found the product to be excellently package as agreed with plastic on each part and foam padding. 

We have 20 of these pallets full of leg kit parts! Wow!!!

We checked several different boxes of bolt/nut kits and found them all exact. 

Full kit on the underside of a Moriarty

So we went to putting together a whole topper with leg kits and it was AWESOME!!!

We are packing them all up right now and expect to shipping these in about 10 days to the USA and Canada. 

If you have any address changes please email us at [email protected]

Yup, its a Mycroft set up with legs. Stay tuned for more news on this.

What's next next? Im so glad you asked.


Dining covers. This is a very long frustrating story I will make short. After exploring every option I could find in the USA and Canada (hundreds of hours of research, prototyping and resources) it was proven that due to current supply chain related issues the raw materials were not readily available to be manufactured here. After exhausting all my options domestically, I finally had to vet some companies in China who are experts at this type of product and had the capabilities to do our product well. After 3 months of exhausting work, late night back and forth emails, and team video chats we have gotten all the details right. We have received a prototype we are very happy with and are now ready for production. We are making 1000 covers and have the first part of the order almost ready for production. Production time is 35 days. The dinning cover storage bags are almost completed and will be shipped in time for the factory to packaging each cover. We have spent quite a bit of time on the packaging solution so we can do as good a job shipping this heavy package as we have on the our other shipping solutions. Shipping time is anywhere from 35 days to 70 days. We are hopeful it will only be 40-60 days. That will mean we should have them June/July. We will keep you updated on the progress and provide videos of production along the way.


UK, EU, Australia and New Zealand shipments:

Everything to complete each pledge is here and ready for individual packaging except the dining covers. The only way for us to offer the low overseas shipping rates we charged is to combine one large shipment to our fulfillment center in Germany. We cannot ship the current orders until these covers arrive. Once we have the leg kits all packaged we will be packaging all overseas orders and have them safely palletized in our shop awaiting the dining covers. We hope this can happen in June/July. We will have to see. I will keep everyone updated on these timelines and want to express my deepest apologies for those of you that have to wait a bit longer. I have done everything in my power and lost more sleep and worked harder on this one item than I have on the entirety of the project. I simple could not fix the pandemic/supply chain problems that exists as hard as I tried. I hope you can understand the situation and I want to assure you will get everything promised, and I even have a few ideas I have been waiting to announce that will turn this situation into a positive for everyone. Notice I have a Mycroft pictured above. Stay tuned I think you will love our next update.


Lastly, for all of you that contributed to the tip jar. I cannot express how encouraged and grateful  I felt for the community we have developed. 2 separate people donated $500 and several others very generous kind gifts to help us with last years shipping cost over runs we experienced, that I explained in our last update. It seriously brought tears to my eyes to see the love and support from our backers. I will be working on the promo cards and thank you's to send out as soon as I can. If you would like to contribute, it is still available on the late pledge link. https://game-toppers-30-upgrading-every-game-you-play.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders/405406


Again, if you have any concerns, please reach out to us at [email protected] of you can reach me at [email protected]

Please join our Facebook Group Game Topper Nation  if you haven't already and share the fun you having with your Game Topper system. (I like to remind everyone, please do not post customer service questions there as the page is just for fun. We do a much better job addressing and concerns directly by email.


Thank you all and be well!

Burky and team.






RESEND of March Shipping Update 3-1-22 Urgent Canada request, Leg Kit, and Dining Covers.
about 2 years ago – Sat, Mar 12, 2022 at 05:24:37 AM

Hello All,


We are just resending this update as many Late-Pledge backers did not receive it correctly. We believe the issue should be fixed now and wanted to make sure everyone received this information.  All the information is the same with the exception of a few italicized parentheticals added to account for dates mentioned that have already passed. Sorry for those of you who have already received this!


MARCH 3-1-22 Update:

Greeting Game Topper Nation.

I just got back from Tantrum Con in North Carolina. It was so great to meet so many backers and see how enthusiastic people have been. They always express so much gratitude for making this product and how it has improved their gaming so much!

Tantrum con 2022

Most were previous backers or had received most of their stuff and just love these great gaming upgrades, and a few wanted to let me know that they knew how hard this logistical season has been for everyone and assure me they knew if anyone was good for it, it was me (Game Toppers) and they were not worried even if they hadn't gotten a portion of the order yet. This was very kind and understanding. I think you know the burden I carry to care well for every backer and our team works tirelessly to take care of each customer. We are a small family team doing really big things and this years delays with certain items has really been an expensive and frustrating challenge. That all said, thank you for your patience! If you fell in some of the categories where your items were delayed we understand your concerns. It's very complicated doing partial fulfillment, but we made a very expensive commitment to ship out items as they came in, rather than waiting for everything to arrive. Rest assured everything else will be on its way when it arrives. We get quite a few emails asking about the why the Leg Kits and Dining Covers didn't arrive with the order, and why they received address shipping verifications, but are still waiting for small accessory or mat orders.

Do you want the good news or the bad news? I think you want the good first...

Good news is, we are almost done with domestic USA shipments. We had a big 2 day blizzard that set us back a bit, but we expect by the end of this week, March 4th, we will have all Wave 2 toppers pledges, accessories like leaf bundles, rail bundles, mat racks and mat bundles, cup holders and other accessories will be shipped out  in the USA and you should receive UPS tracking number. (This is now complete! Any US backers that ordered prior to March 10th should have their entire pledges shipped minus Leg Kits and Dining covers).

Canada:

We are starting the packaging process next week March 7th and hope to have it all packed up by March 22th and shipped to our fulfillment partner Pick and Pack Logistics. Then it will be trucked to Toronto Canada, inventoried and shipped out. This process normally takes about 2 weeks. So it is reasonable to expect that by the middle of April everyone in Canada should either have their orders or tracking for their pledges from Pick and Pack.

The not so Good news...

Just last week, we were notified by our logistics import team that the container that has all the leg kits on it (yeah the one that has already been bumped 3 times) and the remaining larger order of cardboard coasters, accessory banks, and player shields, was rerouted to Korea rather than heading straight to Vancouver as planned. The only explanation they will give me is the assumption that the Vancouver port is heavily congested. We see that it is sitting in a bay by Japan now. The new ETA which I have verified again is Vancouver March 22nd, to MPLS  by rail March 28th truck to Fergus Falls April 1st.

LOTS of ships!!!!!

I'm not sure how else to say it, but I was pretty upset!!! It is a very helpless feeling knowing that you are paying incredibly high prices and the service stinks and it messes up all my glorious plans! I want to get this to everyone!!! I hate to disappoint my backers!!!

I spent the better part of a week helping the guys in the shop with orders and rearranging the warehouse so we could set up the assembly of the cartons and storage bags to pack all the leg kits.

This has a cascading effect for us, because we have to re -modulate and figure out how to get the Canada order ready and then ship a separate batch of products to Canada when they come in. This is very expensive, not my fault, but has to be addressed.

The good news is... with the exception of Leg Kits and Dining Covers and some extra Cardboard Coasters that are on that container, we have enough of everything else to complete the segment to Canada.

Canadian Backers we need your help ASAP!!!

We are short about 50 printed sets of cardboard covers that fit on the cup holders due to this delay, and we can't hold the entire order back because of these covers. We will have to ship those out later unless you would like to upgrade to the acrylic coaster and marker sets.

OFFER:

If we have to send the Cardboard covers out later when they arrive, it will cost us about $15.00 per set. It's not your fault, so we understand if you would prefer that, but If you would be willing to upgrade to the Acrylic coaster set, I will discount them for the lower cost of 50% off (for only $20.00 a set -Reg 39.95) We really need to know ASAP to not delay our packing for Canada. If we don't hear from you by next Monday March 7th, we will assume you don't want this upgrade offer and the cardboard covers will ship later. Please email us at [email protected] if you would like to accept this offer. We will bill your card on file. (This offer is still possible since many of you did not receive this update, it's quite a bit trickier for us to manage now that we are already packing pledges, so if you want to take advantage of this, please let us know ASAP!!! Also if you are open to us just not shipping the printed covers at a later date either because you already ordered the Acrylic or don't care about the cover please let us know and we can skip shipping them altogether.)

Leg Kit domestic backers:

If we receive these by the current Eta (April 1st), we think we can inventory and pack the orders in 3-4 weeks time and that means we should be able to ship by the end of April to US backers. We will keep you updated on the arrival and progress of those item. I hesitate to give dates, but I will keep you all in the loop as to when they are ready.

Dining covers:

Not much change here, Est May. still on allocation.  We hope to have the product before we ship to All overseas areas like the EU and Australia. We will keep everyone updated on that front as well.

Backer Suggestions:

I have been hesitant to discuss this much as it is hard for me to ask for help. I like to be the giver not the receiver. I have had many backers and contemporaries in the hobby say I really should explain the cost overruns and impact that this pandemic and shipping cycle have had. Unless you have done this, it's hard to know what actually happens on the business side. I'm going to give you a little peak behind the curtain...

It is difficult to quantify. Forecasting is a skill that we generally have had a good track record, but because of allocation and cost increases in almost every area there was just no way to anticipate the impact that has occurred.

Cost increases we have incurred in 2021:

Aluminum 16 percent

Overall Topper price increases 18 percent

Packaging -cardboard resin foam corners - 20 percent

Mold injected products like cup holders and poker chip trays 50 percent increase

Mats 15 percent increase

Lot of other costs that have increased that are too many to mention.

Shipping cost: This is the hardest to absorb.

Due to delays, we had to absorb over $60.00 per topper package due to peak service surcharges on large packages, $6 surcharges on small packages. Canada has increased their prices now.

5 containers this year that normally would cost $30,000.00, Actual total cost will be over $125,000.00.

Domestic trucking has almost doubled, sometimes more than that.

Partial fulfillment decisions to ship in stock items early rather than waiting for everything to arrive has also been very expensive. We airfreighted some small accessory  items that cost over $8000.00 alone. We think there was another $20,000.00 absorbed.

I did all this without asking for a penny because of my commitment to my word and to honor my backers trust in us. I still will. Thankfully our company is very lean and debt free. We had hoped to hire 2 more staff to light the work load on us, but there was just no way that would be wise at this time as we estimate that we have spent over $200,000 more than expected.

Many have suggested to me. "let your backers know." They care about Game Toppers well being, and they trust you. I have had several dozen backer say they wanted to donate. Wow, blows my my mind how kind and generous our backers are!!!

This all explained... If you would like to help us out with these extra costs we have incurred we are going to put a Tip Jar on the Backerkit Late pledge manager.

https://game-toppers-30-upgrading-every-game-you-play.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders/405406

If you make any donation I am going to personally send you a thank you card and an autographed promo card from The Arcane Wonders Game Spoils of War Called  "Burky's Shield"

I hope this isn't cheesy or stupid, but thought it would be an inexpensive, thoughtful way to express my gratitude and maybe provide something fun and exclusive.

(Please do not mis-construe or think we are having financial difficulties. We are fine and this is simply if this is in your heart to help. There is no pressure, we want to give those that want to an opportunity.)

Tip Jar:

I might even be able to get you a deal on a copy of Spoils of War if you are interested. I'm a big fan so much so we made a video.

All in all, I glad we are nearing the end and I'm super excited for the future and really do think things will improve. When we let you in on all the new stuff we have planned, I think you will be very excited!!!

If you have any concerns you can always reach out to me [email protected] or our [email protected] if you have any shipping concerns.

Thank you again!!!
