Extravia has launched a new Kickstarter campaign to raise funds to begin producing the Minimals line of collectible animal puzzles.
The name "Minimals" is derived from the contraction of "Mini-Animals" and the word "Minimalism". Fundamentally, they're set out to expose the essence of toys by eliminating all non-essential forms, features, and concepts. The Minimals’ experience allows everybody to build not only the classic characters but also new combinations. It’s an affordable line of modifiable animal puzzles to collect, play, match and mix. A designer collection of toys perfect for children’s rooms and adult’s desks.
The Kickstarter campaign is looking to raise enough funds to manufacture the first two characters: Herr Bytes and Frau Gramm. The toys will be approximately 5.1 inches tall and have around 28 separate pieces that fit together in various combinations.
Bot the Herr Bytes or Frau Gramm can be had at the $20.00 funding level (or an early bird version of both for $30.00). This project will only be funded if at least $36,000 is pledged by .
Remember...this is not a pre-order. There are many instances of crowd funded projects that have been funded never making good on their promised goods. So back with caution.
I hope these get made. I put in my pledge to get a whole family (mom, dad, & kid).
