It'll most likely be a one-round raffle.

Damn, I'm so impressed with your work on this cap! It's intricacy and complexity will not be wasted on me! (If I win)

And dang... Kosmonavt one-offs to the puzzle solvers... Wish I knew!

I just want to share something that was said on Reddit. I don't know that I've seen this detail elsewhere.

"Visors light up with backlight. We colored each visor according the skull color and embedded glitter to simulate the reflection of stars."

I knew that this was a detailed cap, but I didn't even notice the star design.

Oh shoot, raffle will be open for 3 days. Makes me happy because I for sure won't miss it... but I can't even fathom how many entries there will be. This is going to be intense.

Apparently you guys haven't read enough. We've slipped in hints and clues all over those posts. Those aren't dead pixels you're seeing  :eek:

Looking back, there's no astronauts, skulls, or Booper logos in those photos... What were we missing?

Check out their blog post. The dates were the names of the colorways, and the Morse code deciphered to "kosmonavt."

No, Kudos was telling us that their previous blog posts had photos with hints in them, I.e., weren't "dead pixels". He wasn't referring to their teasers in this thread.

Looking back after the reveal, I still can't see what he was talking about.

For me, it was the dates that established a theme of space/space disasters/dead astronauts, and the morse code that was posted. There were no implicit instructions, I believe.

You mean they told us to look somewhere that they knew there were no hints?

I don't know... You're making it sound like they were intentionally lying to us about the existence of hints. That is not "misdirection". Misdirection would be hinting at the possibility that our guesses were wrong, not deceptively telling us to go find answers in a place devoid of information.

Think how bad an idea it would be if you're right. That would discourage us from paying attention to their blog posts and teaser statements in the future. That's probably not what they wanted to be doing, and they seem smarter than that.

Hopefully we can get a clarification from KK.

(Side note- there were actual hints in the posts before Key-wala/Kill-walas, but they weren't apparent until after their announcements. THAT is how you're supposed to do it.)

A "." in the KeyWala follow up blog post had a URL attached to moon landing footage. We decided to remove it as it was too blatant. Thanks for playing.

You mean they told us to look somewhere that they knew there were no hints?

I don't know... You're making it sound like they were intentionally lying to us about the existence of hints. That is not "misdirection". Misdirection would be hinting at the possibility that our guesses were wrong, not deceptively telling us to go find answers in a place devoid of information.

Think how bad an idea it would be if you're right. That would discourage us from paying attention to their blog posts and teaser statements in the future. That's probably not what they wanted to be doing, and they seem smarter than that.

Hopefully we can get a clarification from KK.

(Side note- there were actual hints in the posts before Key-wala/Kill-walas, but they weren't apparent until after their announcements. THAT is how you're supposed to do it.)

A "." in the KeyWala follow up blog post had a URL attached to moon landing footage. We decided to remove it as it was too blatant. Thanks for playing.

Ah ok. Clever use of "dead pixel" I might add.

Also, let me just say your new release is crazy. I keep watching you guys and wondering how you'll top your last, but I'm starting to see that you guys are just taking us all on a ride where we just need to suspend all doubts. Great work.

Whoa. People read that?

Of course not; they're just looking for Furt v2 leaks in the photos.

I read the blog during the Snackkeys raffles... :(

I've read them all too. #comingclean

Apparently you guys haven't read enough. We've slipped in hints and clues all over those posts. Those aren't dead pixels you're seeing  :eek:

Looking back, there's no astronauts, skulls, or Booper logos in those photos... What were we missing?

Check out their blog post. The dates were the names of the colorways, and the Morse code deciphered to "kosmonavt."

No, Kudos was telling us that their previous blog posts had photos with hints in them, I.e., weren't "dead pixels". He wasn't referring to their teasers in this thread.

Looking back after the reveal, I still can't see what he was talking about.

"Efforts to deflect and misdirect proved ineffective in stopping the community from delving deeper into the mystery."

They did that intentionally. Here's the blog post.

Thanks mate. Going to be hard to top this one for sure. Honestly thinking of taking a long break until the next release. These back-to-back releases are taking it's toll on me for sure. BTW, stoked to see your new caps. Sculpts are looking great  :thumb: :thumb:

My wallet would surely appreciate a long break too ;)

On a more serious note, I'm sure all of the design/casting and then raffling/shipping is exhausting as hell to deal with.
