Greetings Backers!
October Update incoming! Following up from last month, the factory is hard at work in the background, continuing the tool cutting phase for Army Ant and Sledgehog. Inferno's tools are already complete, which puts us in a great spot. We're looking forward to the products landing in the USA in early 2026—fingers crossed for smooth sailing, but as always, it's wise to build in some extra time for any unexpected hiccups.
We had an amazing time at GraniteCon 2025 with our first-ever company vendors booth, showcasing samples of Army Ant, Inferno, and Sledgehog. By far my favorite part was meeting some of you—our awesome backers—in person. Your enthusiasm fuels everything we do!
Since we're in a bit of a waiting period with the factory before we get new product imagery, I wanted to share a slice-of-life exclusive first look just for our Kickstarter backers: Behold the Michael Dooney Mutant Multiverse #2 Villains cover!
Mutant Multiverse #2 is currently in development and will feature covers from an all-star cast of legendary artists!
If you missed out on Mutant Multiverse #1 (penciled by Jim Lawson with ink and color by Dan Berger), grab your copy at www.treasuremonstertoys.com—we're now shipping!
As always, thank you for being an amazing community and backing our project. Your support makes all of this possible, and we're grateful every day.
More to come, stay tuned!
Sincerely,
Jonathon House

💥September Big Update!💥

Greetings, Backers!
Big update time! We're now in the tool-cutting phase for Army Ant and Sledgehog! It has taken some time to work out the engineering quirks, but the most difficult milestones in the production process are now behind us.
The new estimated date for products arriving in the USA is mid-February. Bear in mind that this is contingent on everything going smoothly with no delays or unforeseen problems to solve. It's best to always allow additional wiggle room for expected timelines.
In other news, Treasure Monster Toys just had our first-ever vendor booth at Granite State Comicon! We had an absolute blast promoting the brand and showing off our factory-fine cuts and painted samples. My favorite part by far was that I got to meet some of our awesome Kickstarter backers in person!
That's the lowdown for now. As always, thank you so much for believing in our mission and supporting the world we're building. This is only possible because of you!
More to come, stay tuned!
Sincerely,

Greetings, Backers!
I'm thrilled to share the August progress report with some exciting updates!
First off, I'm super excited to reveal images of the Inferno factory-painted samples! Here’s the Inferno Classic in a white shirt and the Inferno Variant in a neon green shirt.
I'm beyond pumped with how these turned out! If you haven’t preordered Inferno Classic or Inferno Variant yet, visit www.treasuremonstertoys.com to place your order today!
I'm also thrilled to announce a cool upgrade to the Army Ant design: the front turret is now rotational instead of stationary. Plus, check out the updated product packaging, including the Army Ant Box, Army Ant sticker sheet, and the Inferno and Sledgehog cardbacks, all featuring our newly revised Mutant Multiverse logo.
Big news for Mutant Multiverse Issue #2! Here's the all-star cover artist lineup reveal:
🚨 A.C. Farley
🚨 Michael Dooney
🚨 Dan Berger
🚨 Jim Lawson
🚨 Aaron Hazouri
🚨 Darwin MA
Issue #1 took us deep into the Chicago streets of the Mutant Underground, circa 1989. Issue #2 ramps up the action as our heroes fight to take down Shadow Line Industries once and for all!
📢 Haven’t grabbed Mutant Multiverse #1 yet? Don’t get left behind—order now at www.treasuremonstertoys.com!
Even more exciting news: Treasure Monster Toys will have its first-ever vendor booth at this year’s Granite State Comic Con, located in the expo hall near Artist Alley! I’ll be showcasing factory samples of Army Ant, Inferno, and Sledgehog, and selling copies of the Jim Lawson Mutant Multiverse Issue #1 cover. Plus, Jim Lawson will be at the event, so it’s a perfect chance to get your copy signed! If you’re attending, stop by the Mutant Multiverse booth—I’d love to meet you in person!
We’re making great progress with all three figures in the production queue, some are further along than others and as full-time CEO of Treasure Monster Toys, all products are receiving my full undivided attention. All three figures are being produced in lockstep and will ship together in a container from China to the USA. I’ll soon have an accurate timeline for when the products will land in the US.
I’ll keep you updated with the latest as we push forward with fulfilling and expanding the exciting products of the Mutant Multiverse. As always, thank you for making this dream a reality. I can’t wait for you to receive your products, and I’m excited to hopefully meet some of you at GraniteCon!
Sincerely,

Dear Awesome Backers,
Thank you for your incredible support in bringing Mutant Multiverse #1 to life! We’ve got some exciting updates to share as we push forward.
What’s Done? - Fulfillment Complete! All digital and physical copies of Mutant Multiverse #1 have been delivered to you, our amazing backers. We hope you’re loving them! Let us know your thoughts in the comments or on social media.
Inferno Paint Sample: The factory has confirmed that the paint sample for Inferno will be ready by August 5th. We’re thrilled to see this step moving forward and can’t wait to share a sneak peek once it’s ready. Here are photos of Inferno's molds straight from the factory 😎
What’s Happening Now? - Army Ant & Sledgehog: After several rounds of tweaks to the 3D files, we’re now ready to create the iron molds! We’re currently finalizing details with the factory so we can start cutting steel. This is a big milestone, and we’re excited to see these characters take shape.
What’s Next? We’re working closely with the factory to lock in production timelines. We’ll update you soon with the new expected date for when everything will land in the USA. Stay tuned for more details, including progress on the molds and any visuals we can share!
Thank You! Your support and patience are what keep this project buzzing. We’re so grateful for your belief in Army Ant and the Mutant Multiverse. If you have any questions or just want to geek out about the project, drop us a comment or message.

Greetings, Backers!
I'm excited to announce that I received the replacement order for the Mutant Multiverse #1 comics a few days ago, and I'm now processing orders!
Each comic will be shipped in a protective sleeve with a backing board. Be on the lookout this week for your tracking number through the BackerKit pledge manager!
I'm also working closely with the factory on every detail of the production progress for Army Ant, Inferno, and Sledgehog. We're about three months away from the original estimated ship date of September. We've spent a great deal of time refining the design and functionality of these figures with the factory to ensure an amazing final product.
It's worth noting that September is looking very tight in the overarching timeline, but I will keep everyone updated with the latest news as we press forward to deliver amazing products and service!
I'm also excited to announce that Treasure Monster Toys has joined the HobbyDB Official Archive Database, the world’s largest collectibles database! Check it out!
