📦 New File Delivery System

We’re upgrading the way you receive your monthly Tanuki releases! 🧡

Our new system was designed to make everything:

✨ Simpler
✨ More organized
✨ Easier to visually browse releases
✨ More intuitive to use


How does it work?

Every month, after the release launches, you’ll receive a DM (Direct Message) containing your exclusive coupon code for that release.

To access your files:

  1. Open your DM with the release message

  2. Copy your coupon code

  3. Redeem the code on the release page

  4. Download your files instantly 🚀

    ps.: you can choose to download via either Gumroad or Cults3D.

This new format helps keep all releases cleaner, easier to navigate, and much more user-friendly for everyone.

One of the biggest advantages of this new system is that your coupon messages stay saved in your message history.

So if you ever need to redeem an older release again, you can simply search your DM history and recover your coupon anytime easily.

⚠️ PS.: We will be adding all the releases; at the moment, only APRIL is available on the new system.

We’re extremely excited for this 2nd year of Tanuki Figures, and we’re actively developing many new solutions and improvements to make the entire experience more visual, easier, and practical for all our members.

Thank you so much for supporting Tanuki Figures and being part of our journey 🧡

A few notes: first, the site looks good, but it would be nice the have the links directly on Patreon. You could send them via DM or put them on the Welcome Note along with the code. The site feels like an extra step compared to what we had before. I'm not opposed to the idea of the site, I just think it would be nice to retain the way the links were provided before, as an option. Second, the links to the Legacy models are nowhere to be found. This relates to the next item. Third, you guys did a very aggressive cleanup of post, haven't you? The post history is a graveyard now. I think it looks weird. I always consider the post history when deciding to support a creator, which allows me to see how active they are and their past works. If I were new to Tanuki I don't think I would feel confident to support, considering the empty post history. I don't know why you guys choose to do that, but I ask for you to consider how it can look to a new member trying to figure out the creator.

Hi Pedro! Thank you so much for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us. We truly appreciate it 🧡 We completely understand your points, especially regarding the extra steps in the new download flow, the visibility of the Legacy models, and how the post history impacts the perception of activity and trust for both current and new supporters. Our goal with the new system was to make file access more permanent and organized through Gumroad/Cults, but we absolutely understand that the transition can feel different compared to the previous workflow. Your feedback is very valuable, and we’ll definitely bring all of these points to the team and consider them as we continue improving and simplifying the process for everyone. Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback and for supporting Tanuki Figures! 🧡

I like downloading directly from here in patreon.

Tanuki Figures · May 17, 2026

Hi Juan! Thank you so much for your feedback! We changed the delivery method because Patreon does not permanently store the files for customers, and we were having many issues with lost access and expired downloads because of that. With the new system, your files and coupons are much safer and easier to recover anytime through Cults3D or Gumroad, even after the monthly drop changes. We believe this will give everyone a much more reliable experience in the long term 🧡

Ideally, I would love to see the files pushed to MMF automatically every month. 😁

T
Tanuki Figures · May 17, 2026

Hi CyberHP! Thank you so much for the suggestion! That’s actually a great idea, and we can definitely see how automatic MMF delivery would make things even more convenient for everyone 😊 We’ll pass this feedback to the team and possibly look into opening/supporting releases there as well in the future 🧡

Nathaniel Shaner · May 16, 2026

Does this mean you guys are branching off from Patreon like VS3D did?

T
Tanuki Figures · May 17, 2026

Not at the moment 😄 We’re currently just focused on improving the experience for our members and making file access safer and more reliable in the long term. Patreon is still our main platform and community hub 🧡

Gumroad is how I keep almost everything I have(from Patreon) so organized, plus it keeps my computer from being bogged down. I also have a FULL 2TB EHD thats full already lol.

Tanuki Figures · May 16, 2026

Hey Alexander, thanks your your support. On the website, you can choose to download via either Gumroad or Cults, so you can keep your files saved in your email and in the cloud.

This sounds cool! I hope it simplifies things as expected 😊 - just clicked on it and that is pretty nifty from what I can see so far! I like how the models are displayed with Gumroad and Cults options below them 😀

Rômulo Fraga · May 16, 2026

Está chique! Quero ver agora se vai fazer pelo menos um modelo com uma base mais detalhada rs

Tanuki Figures · May 17, 2026

Rômulo, muito obrigado pelo feedback! 😄 Ficamos muito felizes que tenha curtido! E pode deixar que vamos levar sua opinião em consideração nos próximos projetos, bases mais detalhadas são algo que muita gente da comunidade também gosta bastante 🧡

Thanks! Jim 🧡 It actually took a lot of work to organize everything, but we’re really happy with this new phase of Tanuki and all the improvements coming with it! 🚀
