The Excavation of Hob's Barrow News

Hi everyone,

Our Makeship Petition to bring a Herbert plush toy to life is now fully funded!

Massive thanks to everyone that has pledged or supported the campaign - we really appreciate it!

Once the Petition closes on October 17th, we will work with Makeship to prototype and design the final plushie - it will then go on general sale for 3 weeks in January 2025!

You can still submit your $2 pledge toward your plushie via the Makeship page if you wish: https://www.makeship.com/petitions/herbert-the-cat-from-the-excavation-of-hobs-barrow


Thanks again, and all the best for the spooky season!

Hey everyone!

Our Makeship Petition to bring Herbert the cat to life in plushie form has begun! We need 200 supporters to pledge $2 each by October 17 in order to bring this cursed little guy into existence!

If you are interested in picking one up, you can find the Makeship page here: https://www.makeship.com/petitions/herbert-the-cat-from-the-excavation-of-hobs-barrow




How do Makeship Petitions work?
Now the Petition is live, you can pledge $2 toward your plushie. We need 200 unique supporters to pledge $2 to make Herbert come to life and kickstart a full Campaign! You'll then be charged the remaining balance automatically when the Campaign launches. The full standard retail price for a plushie on Makeship is $29.99 (plus any applicable tax and p&p)

If the Petition fails to reach 200 supporters, you will receive a refund of your $2.

Why Herbert?
We originally had the idea to create a plushie quite a while ago, so we ran a poll on Twitter to see who people might like to see as a plushie. Herbert won, with Thomasina a very distant second!

Why can't I see the plushie design?
Makeship only create the design and produce the plushie if 200 people pledge in the petition, this is their business model. If the Petition is successful, we will work closely with their designers to bring Herbert to life. Makeship are renowned for making high quality plushies, you can see some of their current designs here: https://www.makeship.com/shop/featured

We are excited to send an army of little Herbert's out there into the world, your support in hopefully making this happen is very much appreciated!

Many thanks,
