Exciting!
*Stalking*
I'm just wondering if shipping costs are going to stay at 100+ dollars or not for the new tails. I can't wait to order mine!
I just ordered my first finfolk full silicone tail. How long does it take for them to get back with you and start the design process?? I also wanted to expedite this but the design page doesn't show shipping. Are they backed up since the new release??
I put my deposit down for a tail (not the new line). I'm so excited!!!
Yay I can't wait to see it! Have to get a big finfolk group together one day and swim with our Tails.
It's officially my production month! Yay!!
But I haven't heard from Finfolk yet... *sob* I hope my order is not forgotten.
Any updates from fellow mers on your tails in finfolk-production?

How long since you put your order in?

Do any Finfolk tails have a metallic/pearlescent shine in and out of the water? I noticed that the gold they use seems to have a metallic shine, but I was wondering about a full tail (not all gold) that they have created that has a lot of shine? I saw a 2013 Finfolk tail in person and it had a very slight shine when viewed in direct sunlight but I am talking about something really shiny (but not glittery). I think this tail they made might come closest to what I am thinking of: https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...31071776_o.jpg
I wonder if they would make your tail more metallic/pearl if you asked?
From a similar qn I asked them previously they did mention that they have iridescent pigments. Hope that answers your qn :)Quote:

Anyone know who this mer is? I don't recognize the tail, but I know it's a FinFolks:

It's at the new aquarium in Phoenix. I want to go visit!
Yes! Her name is Haley! She is (or was?) part of Wands and Wishes Mermaids! She's so gorgeous!Quote:

No updates for me since September 2016. Last we were in touch, they said they are working on my mock-up/design. I assume they got busy with other projects which I guessed correctly after the reveal of the new affordable tails and their trip to Mexico! Hopefully they'll get back orders soon! I'm ready to swim in my FF tail! [emoji177]

I hope they start focusing on us once the website is relaunched. I too am SO ready to swim in my FF tail!! Waiting is no fun haha!Quote:

For the Mythic line they're using the shooter and saying they've used it in their full silicone tails before. Does anyone know if they have done any previous tails with the shooter? I thought it was just the trainer and competitor?
Gah I ordered the teal!
Hey all just a FYI in case anyone missed it and is considering buying a Mythic tail - the prices currently offered for these tails ($699) is a presale special only and will be going up to thier regular price of $799 soon. So if you want to get it at the lower price you need to order soon!
Here is the Facebook comment from Fin folk that confirms this.
"Once presale is over, regular prices will be $799 for the non-finned tail, and $1050 for the finned tail. Once these tails are in stock they will be available for SAME DAY or next day shipping"

Yeah this is a rare chance!
For those of you really wanting this tail but you don't have the money saved up yet you could still probably make a bunch of crafts and sell them to help raise some money. Or babysit, petsit, do yard work for someone (my fave thing cause I don't like inside chores) etc. Around now is when people will be starting to think about buying presents for Christmas and they might be more likely to buy something handmade - or at least I like handmade items more since it is more unique and less likely the person has that item.
Also you can always ask your friends and relatives to give you money for your tail fund instead of a Xmas present, and you will have the amount you need in no time!

A minor detail I suppose, but they did switch back to their original domain of http://finfolkproductions.com :)
Finfolk is having a Black Friday sale and will be releasing and unknown new color of their Mythic line. My guess is purple or orange!
I'm guessing purple since it's the only legging color that doesn't correspond to a tail yet.
I guessed Black for Black FridayQuote:

Thanks for the feedback! ;)
That is very neat that you mist your tails to keep them sparkling. I am sure it also helps ad to the 'real mermaid' aspect since it looks like you are trying to keep from drying out.
But for real that's a cute thing to do for gigs.
I make this joke all the time!! 😂😂😂Quote:
