Sorry for the delay. It was expected the mugs would be ready and picked up at Tiki-A-Go-Go.
And then I expected the mugs by Hukilau..
The mugs are running late. Health issues at Eekum Bookum, and having to move to a new production facility, have slowed things a lot.
I did get nearly 200 mugs at Hukilau. The entire lot for the first batch of the Kickstarter mugs are shipped. (There are some who Korero does not have addresses or payments from)
UPDATE 6/26/26: All the first batch of Kickstarter mugs are shipped.
UPDATE 7/3/26: The second batch of Kickstarter Add-On mugs are shipping. First 50 or so will be out by early next week. There are not enough to fulfill the full 100 from Kickstarter. I am sending them in order of purchase.
UPDATE 8/17/26: Just sent out the last of the #2 Kickstarter mugs I have. Eekum Bookum had to get the Tiki Oasis mugs done first, and I assume now will be able to crank out the remaining mugs for me. Once they are finished (about 200-250 total) we’ll figure out how to get them and then I’ll start shipping them out.
UPDATE 9/21/26: Mulder thinks the mugs will be ready this week. Hopefully I will go down and get them maybe next week and start shipping.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
Hello. I have received my book, but still haven’t received my mug. Backer No. 429. Can you provide and update on when I can expect this to arrive? Thank you!
See blog post above.
Aloha,
Will all of the preordered mugs be shipped out before the end of August ? Just wondering. I didn’t order from kickstarter. I order directly on the site back on March 20th. Thank you very much.
It all depends on when Mulder has them all finished and I can pick them up. I can’t guess.
I will update this post when anything changes.
Hi, I didn’t order the mug via kickstarter, just on the website. Also wanting to get a status on the mug. I received the book already. Thanks.
See the post above. Still waiting on the mugs to be made.
Thanks for the update. Much appreciated. Hope everyone’s health issues are resolved. Impatience and tiki don’t really go well together.
Speaking for myself, as long as I know it’s in the works I’m happy.
Thanks. It’s been a really long time, but I can’t really share the personal issues that slowed things the most. But everyone is better now and I think they’ll have the mugs finished by the end of the month. Hope to get them soon after.
Hi Tim – Jeff Ravas, backer 255. Just looking for an update. Your last comments from mid-August suggested the outstanding mugs would hopefully be finished late-August. Any updates from the Tiki Gods on status?
Read the update on this post.
Sorry Tim – the update is confusing because it seems to be dated Sep 5 (09/05). It says you hope to have them by the middle of the month. (So mid-September?). But then it says “ Best guess is late August after Tiki Oasis.” I thought maybe you got the 09/05 wrong… So are we looking at a mid-September date for the mugs to be ready and shipping shortly after that…?
You’re right. I updated on my phone, so it’s messy. I fixed it.
Plan is to have mugs start shipping middle of September.
