Kitsune is a mythical creature from Japanese folklore that is often portrayed as a fox with the ability to shapeshift into a human form. Kitsune are considered to be mischievous tricksters, but can also be seen as wise and powerful beings, with some stories depicting them as protectors and messengers of the gods. This set has been inspired by the legends of the mythical nine tailed fox.

Currently, we have no plans of adding Latin only alphas or another Latin base. This however, can and will change if there is enough interest.
So please leave your feedback in the IC form and we will decide accordingly!

it might be my short term memory but wasnt this PBTfans like a few months ago? why the change? is it because GMK promised to clear up all their backlog by september? I dont see that happen if you were to ask me

Sadly the updates were in my server.

What happened : the set was with pabtfans for about a year and we did multiple rounds of testing. KbDFans team told me that they are not confident about it. So we chnaged it back.

GMK already tested this and have confirmed my lead vendor that the prototypes worked. So thats why GMK.

I dont want to even talk about backlogs since GMK has been consistent in clearing it really fast. Ask the vendors how many sets they are receiving per month and you will have an idea.
