after taking a few days to get my life back in order after megacon, i've finally reopened the rotten girl gang online shop with LOADS of new merch! if i had it at megacon, i have it here (all except for furry yaoi buttons, which sold out but will be back very soon xD).
along with the previously revealed new stickers, there's a new sticker sheet (and dicks are back in stock)! this one is perfect for decorating photos of your blorbos, babygirls, and precious little meow-meows. find it here!
our very first t-shirt is also available, so now you can rep the gang with this eye-catching BOY CRAZY design on super soft purple tees!
at long last, our sun & moon ship keychains have arrived in the shop!! they look amazing with gold hot stamping that shines silver on the other side! i have plans to expand this lineup and add a "sister" set with sibling pairs as well!
there's also new additions to our bespoke yaoi and ecchi button lineups, as well as a brand new ZINE all about kieran!!
it's packed with sketches and shipping!!!
thank you all SO much for your continued support! the gang is a year old now and i can't wait to see it grow in its second year! couldn't have done it without all you fabulous fujos out there. ;w;
hey gang!!! we're all set up at our very first megacon! there was a last second change of table numbers, so we're actually at AA866 instead of 868! (just one table over!) come find us thursday-sunday and pick up some brand new goodies!!!!
visit our most epic table yet this weekend!!!
as the title of this update suggests, THE GANG IS BACK IN TOWN!! we received a ton of orders during our trip and shipped them all out yesterday, then worked late into the night finishing up a big batch of new stickers for megacon! the order is in and should be here in time for the weekend!! check out the mockups below!
we've got four new holo stickers -- a refreshed fujoshi sticker, along with a (much-requested) matching fudanshi!
expanding our lineup of fujoshi are yumejoshi (for our selfshippers) and himejoshi (for our yuri enjoyers)! aren't they sweet?
we've also got a new "lesbian thoughts" sticker to go with our "gay thoughts" and another yaoi meme sticker!!
stay tuned for more megacon updates this week, and if you're going to the con, be sure to stop by table AA868 for all your fujo needs!! up next -- MORE BESPOKE YAOI BUTTONS!
great news, gang! i'll finally have my preorder items in hand this tuesday!! that means all orders of kieran, len, atom, and dead dove keychains will be shipped out this wednesday (the 10th)! and after that... i'll be taking a two-week birthday vacation!! i'll be out of town beginning thursday, january 11th, and not be back at home with my merch until january 25th! i'll be leaving the etsy shop open, but all orders received within that time will NOT be shipped out until i return! wednesday will be my last post office run before i go, so make sure you get your orders in by then if you want something shipped before my trip!
as far as merch updates go, i do have a few! our t-shirt order is in and will be completed in time for megacon, but i'm not sure if i'll have the caps or not -- i'm having trouble finding a quote that's low enough to not have to sell them for $40+ each. i may end up doing them by hand with heat transfer like my tote bags, but i won't be able to experiment with that until i get back from my trip. so they're not guaranteed by megacon, but i'm sure i'll eventually figure something out!
new sparkle prints!
we also just received our newest order of sparkle prints, which contained two new 8.5x5.5 inch pokémon mini prints! i've added them to the mini-print listing on etsy in case anyone wants to grab them before i leave -- i'll take better photos of them when i get back!
that's all i've got for today! get your orders in and i'll see you after my trip! (。•̀ᴗ-)✧
hey gang!! we've got a big end-of-year update today revealing lots of new merch debuting for megacon 2024 -- and some available now!
ANIME BOY TEARS mugs are now up in our online shop!! now you can sip on the sweet, salty tears of your favorite whump-able anime boy in a cute teal ceramic mug! this is our last product drop of 2023, as our next order won't be arriving until january! speaking of which, we got a preview of that today...
a supplier photo of our new line of charms!
as those of you who follow us on aethy already know, we've been hard at work on a brand new line of acrylic charms with gold hot stamping! there will be EIGHT varieties available in the first batch, each of them depicting a gay (or lesbian!) ship with a "sun & moon" dynamic! today we got our first look at the final charms -- aren't they stunning? *w*
more upcoming merch!
these next two photos are mockups of more new merch debuting at megacon!! we've just submitted the order for our first shirt design -- a purple "BOY CRAZY" tee depicting our mascot fujo character ringo-chan! and we're currently shopping for quotes on an embroidered "FUJOSHI" cap design! both of these will go up in the online shop after megacon, in early february 2024!
before 2023 ends, i wanted to sincerely thank ALL OF YOU for supporting this brand-new project this year!! it's truly been a labor of love for me, and watching it grow from an idea to a flourishing business over the course of these 12 short months has been incredible. this dream couldn't have come true without you, and i can't wait to see what the next year brings for the gang. i know i'll be working hard every day to make it the best and boldest it can be! 。゚+.*(+・`ω・)9
time for a quick holiday matsuri recap before i head home for the holidays! please be aware that any outstanding orders/new orders will not be shipped until i get back on the 26th!
so, like i said in our last update, we DID actually get to vend at holiday matsuri after all thanks to the generosity of our amazing friend bubbly sheep creations! we had an extremely successful con with only 2 feet of table space and even sold out of dicker sheets!! we also debuted our newest product...
...the ANIME BOY TEARS mug!
these will be up in the shop after christmas, so look forward to that and all the new products we'll be debuting at megacon! but enough about business, what about pleasure?
a meeting of the minds...
there was only ONE event important enough for me to leave my table during holmat, and that was our friend and site affiliate denpa archivist's YAOI MEETUP! it was a truly heartwarming little get-together of fujoshi, fudanshi, cosplayers, artists, and more! we shared stickers, traded bracelets, looked at doujins, and left having made many new friends! thank you so much to denpa for putting it together!!! i hope many more meetups like this will pop up so fujos all over have a space to be themselves and have fun!!
united under yaoi!
as we head into the holidays, i hope you all have a merry yaoimas and a happy new yuri! i'll leave you with this beautiful photo of yuri and yaoi jesus wearing our pins wednesday night!
truly blessed!!
sorry i didn't get to update my blog sooner, but I ACTUALLY DID GET A SPACE AT HOLIDAY MATSURI THIS YEAR!
it's small, but it's something!
i got SUPER lucky that the tables turned out to be 8 feet long despite my friend bubbly sheep creations confirming with them beforehand, and therefore planning for a 6-footer! she gave me her extra 2 feet to set up a mini rotten girl gang table, which has been CRAZY profitable these last two days! there's one more day to see us there, and i have a feeling it's going to be a big one!!! come by table O7 right near the exit of the artist alley and check us out before we sell out of everything!
i'll make a longer post after the con with a recap and more, but now i need to go restock my merch and get to bed! x3
hey gang, we just submitted a BIG merch order with lots of new stuff, including new boys for the BOY ☆ CATCHER!
the catch of the day!
a new preorder listing is up for kieran, atom, and len rainbow acrylic keychains! you can grab your favorite boy at our etsy!
i have much, MUCH more to reveal before megacon, so keep an eye out for more updates soon! the order will arrive early january, and include a restock of our dead dove yaoi candy keychains for those waiting on them!
speaking of cons, we got into bold matsuri again! it's a long ways off (june 22nd-23rd), but it's great to know we already have a summer con date set! hope to see you there! ^w^
last night we had another spot at player 1 orlando! big thanks to everyone who stopped by and grabbed some swag!
our simple lil setup!
every weeb wednesday the artists each donate a piece of their merch to be raffled off, and this time i gave them an organic yaoi sticker, which caused quite a fuss amongst the guests. there was a big group of guys chanting for it through the raffle and one of them finally won it and brought all their friends over to buy stuff from the gang (including dick stickers). i hope to get another gig there soon!!
today’s your last day to take advantage of rotten girl gang’s black friday deal! use the code "BLACKFRIDAY" for free shipping on orders of $30 or more! PLUS it turns out etsy’s offering $5 off $30 for cyber monday with the code "CYBER5"!! this should be able to combine with our free shipping coupon!! don’t miss out on these sweet deals!! ^w^
also, there's going to be a slight delay in shipping this week, but all outstanding and incoming orders will be shipped by thursday at the latest!
hey gang! i'm running a special deal for black friday that will last from NOW (midnight on november 24th) until 11:59pm EST on cyber monday (november 27th)! what i've done is lower the threshold for free US shipping from our etsy shop from $50 to $30, so any purchase of $30 or more can get free shipping with the code "BLACKFRIDAY"! have fun shopping~!
last night was our third gig at player 1 orlando's weekly weeb wednesday event! we had a blast chatting about fanfiction and card games with our fellow weebs while jamming to anime openings 'till 1 in the morning.
last night's little setup!
big thanks to everyone who stopped by and bought something!!! hope to see you again at our next weeb wednesday on november 29th!
hey gang! i have a new product and an AMAZING announcement for you guys!
our new sticker!
our new organic yaoi sticker is now up in the shop! this one was quite popular on aethy, so i'm excited for everyone to get to take one home! find them here at our etsy!
i also got the most exciting news this week... rotten girl gang was accepted to MEGACON ORLANDO! this is my biggest local con and the biggest con rotten girl gang has been invited to yet!! (and also the LONGEST, with FOUR days of sales!) find us in the artist alley february 1-4th, 2024!! i can't wait!!! x3
happy halloween, gang!!! our newest boys have finally arrived, just in time for the holiday!
the updated lineup!
naota and miya are now available in the boy catcher listing in our etsy shop!
things are gonna be a little quiet around here while i'm busy with irl stuff the next two months, but i grabbed two more weeb wednesday slots for november! come by player 1 orlando and hang with rotten girl gang on the 15th and 29th! i'll let you know if we get off the waitlist for holiday matsuri! -- still no word yet, but don't give up hope! i've got some new merch in the works just in case, and i'll share updates on them soon. ^^
hey gang, we're back from wasabicon with some quick updates!
our latest and greatest table!
our setup was better than ever, but the event itself was only about as popping as our last jacksonville con, bold matsuri. but despite slow sales we still managed to make a profit -- and sold out of brocon badges, which is always a good sign. ;D
femboy & babygirl stickers are here!
our newest holo peeker stickers are now up in the online shop! they're now all in one convenient listing along with fujoshi, catgirl, catboy, and a deal where you can order any three for $12!
i had wanted to debut my miya and naota BOY ☆ CATCHER keychains at wasabicon too, but unfortunately the charms order didn't make it in time! :( they still won't be in my hands until the end of the month, but here's a preview of them to tide you over till then!
aren't they cute? ;w;
wasabicon may be our last major event of the year (though i do intend to do a couple more weeb wednesdays whenever i can fit them in), unless we get into holiday matsuri! keep your fingers crossed that we'll get lucky with their table lottery in the coming months!!
P.S. you may have also noticed the layout of our blog page has been updated! i've learned how to use iframes and i'm very proud of myself :) keep an eye out for more site improvements coming soon!
just received our table placement for wasabicon next weekend!
find us here!
the gang will be all set up at table #A073 (table 73 in the artist alley) next friday-sunday!! we'll have new keychains and stickers and some other fun goodies too ;)
here's a little preview of our newest holo peekers to entice you! ;D
it's been a while since we had a 3-day convention and i can't wait! i hope to see you there! ♥
hey everyone!! i'm back from my kirbiicon trip with plenty of goods and good news to share!
our (highly improvised) booth at kirbiicon!
kirbiicon went soooo well!! it felt like the best reception rotten girl gang has EVER gotten, with so much love and laughter from everyone who stoppd by! we made table super quick and a nice profit too!! an 18+ crowd is DEFINITELY the best for a brand like ours, and i hope we'll have many more opportunities for adult events where we can truly let our freak flag fly! ;3 (thought hopefully not outdoors again, the wind made setup pretty difficult! xD)
new pass the yaoi shot glasses and dubcon and noncon badges!
now that we're back home, our newest merch, the promised pass the yaoi shot glasses and a set of dubcon & noncon parody con badges that debuted at kirbiicon are both available in our etsy shop! our next convention, wasabicon, is in just another week, and then hopefully we'll get to close out the year with holiday matsuri if we get picked in their table lottery! keep your fingers crossed for the gang!!
