The V2 run is firing on all cylinders! Here's the update we made yesterday on the FB page:
"Hey all!
And just like that, May is gone! We've been absolutely stacked out - we are super proud with how things are developing, and we are very grateful to everyone that turned out and supported us! As with anything new, there's always some fine tuning to do, so we are investing in the right areas - most importantly, orders are flying out the door 2 to 3 times a week!
So now we're coming to the end of the MoM run, we can now move on to the V2! TXQ have started machining the V2, and Xie has informed us the process will take approximately 45 days. This would mean they *should* arrive the middle of July, or just after. Obviously TXQ will have a better idea as things progress. One FAQ is about deposits or orders that were originally placed with 7C - we're fully honouring those, so when we have the hilts, we will issue a balance invoice for any remaining payments. Any folks that paid in full will receive their V2 as normal. We will have 50 spare kits, should anybody wish to pick one up once they're here.
Now there's a lot to the V2 kits - probably one of the biggest joint efforts we have seen in the community for a long time. So what's included, and who is confirmed so far?
Trooper Trent is making Veracity Labs V2 stencil kits - he's extremely well known for the accuracy of his paint stencils for various V2 hilts. We've just got a couple of dimensions to confirm with Trent once Xie is able to get them for us.
Roman Props is providing satin Graflex Clamps - this was highly requested, so we have reached out to Roman and made it happen!
Talks are ongoing with Brad Lewis (Slothfurnace) to accurately weather and solder our V2 clamp cards. He's a master craftsman when it comes to reproducing that real vintage look! We're hoping to have the details locked in with him soon.
There's a couple more parties to confirm details with, so we'll have updates on that front very soon.
On another note some of you may have noticed we've started stocking our little spare parts section on our store... we didn't even get a chance to officially announce it, because the turnout has been crazy! Thank you all so much! We're adding more spare parts to the store later this weekend. Lots of third party parts and stuff that has been sitting in storage, so keep your eyes peeled!
So with all that being said - thank you guys for your patience and continuous support!"
