Meet Jelly. He’s a robot, or rather a jellybot, who’s programmed to be adorable. Help his plush toy army come to life!
I’ve always dreamed about taking over the world with an army of robots, so I spent a lot of time doodling and coming up with concepts for a robot Empire and that’s how Jelly, a very playful and curious robot was born. I’ve been drawing this little guy for a while now and it’s been a ton of fun along the way. He started out as 2D illustrations but then evolved into comic books and then 3D resin collectibles and finally into plush. It was then, that I met a very talented plush maker, Shlii, who helped me bring Jelly alive in the plush world and with a huge success! I started selling Jelly robot plush toys a few years ago at conventions and online, but every time I have any available, they always sell out that same day. Because of the time and effort it takes to make one plush figure, I’m simply unable to keep up with the high demand.
That’s why i’m reaching out to you! I’d love to raise the funds to get these cuddly robots produced on a much larger scale. I’ve already spent a few months creating a sample that i’m really happy with, so this empire of jellybots will be ready to go into production as soon as I secure the funds.
Below you will see a ton of cool stuff that I will have for rewards, as well as a timeline and stretch goals.

There are always risks and challenges with every product being manufactured. The only real issue I can foresee is the manufacturing company having delays or the plush being held up at customs when being imported to the US. I have already added extra time to the Kickstarter to help avoid these issues. If there are delays or any other bumps in the roads I will be sure to keep you all updated! Thanks so much!
