🧳 LAWYER SUITCASE w/ CONTRACT
The very suitcase and contract Piedmont’s burly legal squad slams down in front of Dicky.

🀄 MAH JONG SET
Played by the four Chinese elders who stop by Mama Wong’s for tea and conversation.

🗡️ PIEDMONT’S SWORD
You asked for it - so here it is. The blade wielded by our big bad himself.

We’ll spin a wheel with the full backer count, and if your number lands, you take home a prop!

Winners will be announced tomorrow - good luck!

It’s the Final Week - Campaign Ends Friday!

The campaign is nearly over, and we’ll be livestreaming the final hours of the campaign. We’d love to have you there, so keep an eye out for details in the coming days.

And - big milestone - thanks to you, we’ve officially passed $440K.
We’re beyond grateful. This support means we can make the movie exactly the way we want.

Friday's prop drop brought us the Swan Statue from Dicky's apartment. You all submitted some incredible names, and we're turning it over to you! Vote in the poll below to decide the winning name. The backer who submitted the winning name takes home the swan!


We’re keeping the momentum going with three new props up for grabs today:

We don't have photos of the props at this moment, you just have to trust that they're really super cool. 😎

🎲 How to Enter

Comment with a number between 1 and 100.
Tomorrow, we’ll roll a D100 three times.

We just blasted past $400K! We can't thank you all enough for supporting our little movie!

 A Quick Note About Backing on BackerKit
We’ve seen a TON of people following the campaign and starting a pledge - but stopping at checkout. We know that BackerKit can feel a little weird if you’ve never used it before, so we wanted to clear some things up!

• You only get charged when the campaign ends.
No upfront payment. Your card is just authorized and won’t actually process until the project wraps.

• You can adjust your pledge anytime.
  Nothing is locked in until the final charge runs.

• Add-ons are optional and won’t affect your main pledge.
If you just want the movie, great. If you want pins or extras, you can add those at checkout.

If you're following the campaign but haven’t backed yet, you can always message us with any questions. We’re here and happy to help!

A Little History Behind Challenge Coins
Challenge coins have been part of tabletop culture for a long time. In the D&D community, they’re often used as small keepsakes for a convention you went to or a group you were part of. We wanted to bring that to Nail House.



So for Chef’s Special and up, you’re getting an exclusive Nail House Challenge Coin added to your pledge at no extra cost. It will not be available as an add-on - only for these tiers.


Congrats to Haylee G., winner of the $10,000 in prop cash! It’ll be added to your pledge - and try not to spend it all in one place.

Today’s prop drop is a fun one: The Swan Statue, straight out of Dicky’s apartment.

To win it, name this swan.
Drop your best name below - we’ll put our favorites into a poll in the next update, and you will decide the winner. 

Thanks again for all the support - we wanted to share a few improvements we’re making across the physical tiers.

Everyone with a physical pledge is getting the Menu!

The set-accurate Mama Wong’s Dumpling House menu was originally exclusive to those who followed the campaign before launch and Chef’s Special and up, but now it will be included with every physical pledge. If you’re getting physical items, you’re getting the menu.

Tier Upgrade: Nail House Challenge Coin

But the Menu WAS exclusive to early followers and Chef's Special and up - SO we’re punching up those tiers and have now added the Nail House Challenge Coin to Chef's Special and higher for free. No additional cost. This is a limited-edition item and exclusive to those tiers, not an add-on. Check it out

ADDITIONALLY, Banquet tiers and higher will now also get their physical disc signed (DVD or Blu-ray).



Congratulations to Matthew Soriana, winner of the second Mama Wong’s placemat! It will be added to your pledge.


We’re giving away $10,000 in prop cash - yes, TEN THOUSAND (fake) DOLLARS used for production.

To win: Tell us what you’re “buying” with your fake money.

We’ll choose a winner in tomorrow’s update.

 We’re in the home stretch! Thanks, everyone - we’ve officially raised $376K and are closing in on 4,000 backers! There are just 9 days left in the campaign, and we want to finish strong. 

🎬 Creative Control

The reason we decided to crowdfund Nail House was simple: creative control.
This campaign lets us make the movie exactly the way we want to make it.

If you haven't backed yet but plan to purchase the movie once it's released, you can support us now by selecting the digital or physical movie-only tier. Every pledge helps us right now and gives you a chance to win one of our daily prop drops!



Remember - today we’re announcing two winners from our Condiment Tray Giveaway!

Congrats to Cowin Francis and Joseph Ra!
The trays will be added to your pledges (but you’ll have to supply your own delicious sauces).


Back by popular demand - this is the second placemat we’re giving away from Mama Wong’s Dumpling House. Another restaurant mainstay!
