• Ninjatown Zipper Charms! Mar 09, 2010 By Shawnimal 17 comments

  Shawnimals and Squibbles Ink + Rotofugi have teamed up on a 16-design series of Ninjatown Zipper Charms set for a soft release on Friday, March 12th right here, and at a designer toy store near you!

  Why Zipper Charms? Because not only can they hang from your zipper thanks to a handy clasp, they can also hang from your cell thanks to a grapple-like cord. In a word: Versatile! Wherever and whichever way you choose for your Wee Ninja hangin’, one thing is for certain – you will always be protected from evil. That is, unless you get a Zombie Ninja! [MORE]

  Sure, it may not be the MOST exciting thing we've ever posted, but it does provide an additional option for those of you who either prefer FedEx, or are ordering something larger and want to save on Ground shipping. In any case, it's available right now as an option when selecting your shipping method during checkout. If it gives you any trouble, just let us know.

  We know it's the not the MOST exciting news, but since we use the United States Postal Service (or USPS for short) for our packaged, we wanted to let you know what the schedule and cut-off dates are looking like leading up to the holidays. We plan on shipping out packages until the absolute last mail day, but of course it's always better to err on the side of caution and contact us should you have a specific question or need. We will try to accomodate requests. [MORE]
