Hallo from Nuremberg!

It's not a spelling mistake, “Hello” in German is “Hallo”, complicated language.
We just finished presenting LIMBO at the world’s biggest toy fair and the feedback we got was amazing! We had people standing near he booth waiting for LIMBO to stop (we offered them a chair). After a while we had to tell them LIMBO’s secret but even then people are mesmerized.
And that’s exactly why we created LIMBO.
We even met some awesome backers, like Sebastian :

Production,
As we mentioned on the previous update, it’s all about the motor, all other components are ready for mass production.
The Chinese new year vacation has finally ended and next week the motor factory will get back to work on the tooling for our needs.
We will update as soon as we have exciting news.
Please trust us that this issue is important for making LIMBO even more perfect.
Friends or enemies?
We guess most of you are familiar with Foreverspin’s tops:
*Foreverspin tops, NOT LIMBO (!)
Foreverspin’s tops are made from a solid piece of metal and spin beautifully for few minutes. They are a bit smaller than LIMBO and look great, we have many of them spinning around the office.
A few weeks ago we backed their new Kickstarter campaign (we wanted the top) and they replied with a message that they love LIMBO and wish us all the best, even offered to help us with few tips and insights. It caught us by surprise, for quite some time we thought about approaching them, but thought that they will see us as their competitors. We realized that they are also Fearless.
Another reason we would like to thank Foreverspin is that they gave us the confidence that people love spinning tops and that they can do well on Kickstarter and on the market.
Without their amazing success, we wouldn't have the courage to start the LIMBO journey.
We would like to return a favor and share their new campaign with you guys:

Thanks, The Motorless team.
2019 first update

Hi Fearless backers,
We hope y'all enjoyed and survived the holidays.
We would like to share with you the progress and our feelings about LIMBO.
These days, the motor development takes up most of our efforts. we are working directly with the Chinese factory development team. LIMBO's needs are very different from any other motor on the market, but we are on it.
Since our last update, we’ve received new motors and they work great, but there are one or two more iterations that we need to carry out in order to make them perfect. In addition, the factory needs to perform its own different QA tests to the motor’s lifetime.
For now it looks like we should get the motors up and running at the beginning of February. By then all other components will be ready, the only question is whether we’ll manage to assemble all the products before the Chinese new year. We are looking for options to assemble LIMBO in the US.
The current delivery date is March or April (depending on the progress). The survey will be sent one month before the delivery to ensure that your address is up to date.
We also think waiting sucks, but we just can't release LIMBO if it's not perfect, and the custom motor is now the key for that.
Thanks for understanding, You guys are also Fearless!

Hi All,
It’s been 4 weeks since our last update and here’s what's happened so far:
Customized Motor
We can’t stress it enough, that’s the core of LIMBO and the most important component. As mentioned in our last update, we are now working hand in hand with a big motors manufacturer, at the moment one of our Fearless team members is in China running tests. We’ll have news to share in 1-2 weeks.
Everything else is ready for mass production, the process should take 5-6 weeks. We are working hard to make it shorter so the delivery would begin this January.
Nuremberg Toy Fair
Any toy fair lovers in the crowd? We will be presenting LIMBO at the Nuremberg Toy Fair at the end of January. If you happen to be there, we would love to meet you in person! we’ll share our booth number on the next update.
We also have 5 free passes that we can spare. So please shoot us a message if you're interested.
We apologize for the delay and that this update is a bit boring, the motor issue kind of paused everything else, but we truly believe it’s for the best.

Mid-October LIMBO Update
over 5 years ago
– Wed, Oct 17, 2018 at 12:45:46 AM
Hi All,
It’s already Mid-October and there’s a lot of pressure before the manufacturing begins. We chose the worst time of the year to manufacture since all factories are in full capacity before the holidays.
We are still on schedule and manufacturing should start in 2-3 weeks. We’ll start off with a test batch of ~1000 units that will not be delivered to you, but will be used for testing purposes alone.
Our biggest challenge is to make sure all LIMBOs work the same, so our code will run perfectly for each LIMBO. To achieve that we need maximum precision and algorithms that can compensate on tiny differences. We already have the PID algorithm that works like an auto-tune software, but it will need to be calibrated for the mass production components.
Spoiler:
Our next update (in 2-3 weeks) will contain photos of the first batch and the Survey, and hopefully, the final delivery date.
LIMBO Mix & Match
What do you think about this concept?
All the aluminum parts are identical, so you can easily mix them and create a new mixed top. We will offer spare parts in the survey.
LIMBO in Italy.
Our CTO, Tom, needed some time to clear his head, so he flew to Italy, on his first day he got a reminder that he might be in a LIMBO:
