Horses, Flausis, & Triakis due to be delivered in early 2025
Horses/Flausi/Triakis update (29 Oct 2024)
Production has commenced with the horses being the first batch to be made at the new factory. While this is within the designated month, it is also going way slower than we anticipated. It looks like 2024 will be the year of missed deadlines.
That said: our goal of 6 months turn-around time (from start of pre-orders) for a project with a new factory was ambitious. It looks like we will have to settle for something in between 6-9 months - which is, realistically, the pre-order-to-delivery timeframe we have typically had in the past when things were going well.
What does this mean for your orders? Most likely we will have a delivery in January 2025. Like last year, it looks like the shipments will get into port and through customs right around Christmas time. This is a bit of a let-down, we know, considering that we had everything ready and sorted out with the factory as early as April this year and then we seem to have lost a few months over a few details that required sorting out before production.
We will continue to work on the processes now that we know how they work with the new manufacturers - we did after all switch to new factories for both of our production lines.
It would be incredibly helpful, and would save your time as well as ours, if you didn't send email requests for updates on your orders, because at this point we cannot give you an exact delivery date and all we do is ask you to monitor our social media channels and the product pages for updates.
Thank you all for you patience!
