Greetings officers!
Today we have updates on shipping plus some tips, reminders, and more.
Shipping Updates
Many of you have received your rewards already, but some are still making their way to you. If you haven't received it and your tracking info has not been updated recently, send us a Kickstarter message or email [email protected] and we'll investigate. Trust us, we have A LOT of investigation experience so we'll get to the bottom of it real quick.
Card List
For those of you who have received your games and are starting to get them to the table, we wanted to remind you that we have a fancy online list of all the cards in the game with frequently asked questions about them:
https://pullthepingames.com/CardSearch?SearchString=&Game=GoodCopBadCop
If you're in the middle of the game and someone has a question, they can check there and it will almost surely have the answer. It's almost like me an Clayton are there at the table with you.
One Store Closes and Another Opens
Our late pledge/pre-order store is officially closed. But if you need anything else like another expansion, some more sleeves, the Big Box, or a promo pack, you can find it on our Square store here while supplies last: https://pull-the-pin-games.square.site/
Board Game Arena
Just a reminder that you can play Good Cop Bad Cop online any time with friends or strangers on Board Game Arena. It currently has the 4th Edition of the base game, the Bombers & Traitors expansion, and the Zombies expansion. It has now been played over 10,000 times on that platform in the last year or so!
BGG Con
We'll have a booth at BGG Con in November where we'll be showing off these latest Good Cop Bad Cop releases and letting people demo our next game, Crash & Grab. Keep an eye on social media for news and pictures from there!
If you have any questions, feel free to comment, send us a Kickstarter message, or email [email protected]. We'll make sure to respond within 24 hours.
Thank you so much for your support officers,
Brian and Clayton
Base Game Storage Tips
4 months ago
– Sun, Sep 08, 2024 at 09:49:58 AM
Greetings officers!
We've seen the first couple deliveries come in, so that's exciting! Today we'll give you the latest on shipping, give a secret method for storing the base game, and talk about Equipment set symbols.
Shipping Update
First, let's start with a shipping update. A lot of the orders have been shipped now, so many of you received a tracking number via email from BackerKit. If you did not, you can log-in to BackerKit and find this campaign to check to see if you have a tracking number there. For those who got a Big Box, those were the last to ship because we had to wait for custom boxes to arrive to ensure it gets to you safely.
For many reasons, there could be a large gap of time between when your label was created, when it leaves the fulfillment center, and when it arrives in your country. So if you don't see any useful updates for a couple weeks, there's no reason to be concerned.
As mentioned in the previous update, if you don't receive a tracking number by September 16th, let us know and we'll investigate. You can send us a Kickstarter message or email us at [email protected].
Late Pledge
We still have the Late Pledge open, so if you want to make a new order, like get a Big Box or sleeves or anything, or you have a friend who wants the Kickstarter version, you/they can still order here for a short time and while supplies last: https://good-cop-bad-cop-4th-edition-and-zombies-expansion.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
Base Game Box Storage
For those of you who did NOT get the Big Box, you'll store your base game in the box it comes in. It's hard to do that wrong if you unclip the standees from your Guns. But over the years, unclipping and reclipping the standees will lead to some wear and tear, so if you want to leave them clipped, you can use the super secret advanced storage option.
Equipment Set Symbol Changes
We changed the set symbols on the Equipment cards in the new editions of the expansions. They used to tell you which expansion or promo pack a card was from, like for example, all the Undercover cards had the "UC" symbol on them. But we realized that people want to use ALL Equipment from the expansions and promos they can play with even when just playing with the base game. So in the new versions, we only put the symbols on the cards when the expansion is required to use them.
That means, if a card does NOT have a symbol on it, throw it in the Equipment deck you use for every game. Then when you play with a particular expansion, say Undercover, just add in the Equipment that require the expansion (the ones that have "UC" on them).
As always, if you have any questions or send us a Kickstarter message, comment, or send an email to [email protected].
Good luck in your first games!!!

Local Shipping Beginning
5 months ago
– Sat, Aug 24, 2024 at 01:29:37 PM
The day has finally come, officers! It's time to start shipping games from fulfillment centers to your doors!
Shipping Info
All rewards are expected to leave fulfillment centers within the next couple weeks. You will receive an email from BackerKit with your tracking number a few days after it ships. If you do not receive a tracking number by September 16th, send us a KS message or email [email protected] and we will investigate. Once it ships, you will also be able to find your tracking number when you log-in to BackerKit and go to this campaign.
Arrival Windows
Now the part we have very little control over... when it gets through postal systems to your door. This will depend on quite a few variables like the wave you end up in, the import process for the country you live in, and the agility of your local postal workers. But at a high level, we are happy to declare that SEPTEMBER IS GOOD COP BAD COP MONTH because all rewards are expected to arrive that month. For more granularity, just refer to your tracking details once you receive it.
If you have any questions, send us a KS message, comment, or email us at [email protected].
We're so excited for you to get this amazing expansion and new editions!!!

Shipment Phase Beginning
6 months ago
– Mon, Jul 29, 2024 at 07:59:58 PM
Greetings officers,
I know we promised in the last update our next one would be in August but we're sending one a little early because we have news! TLDR: We're still on scheduled and our first backers will start getting copies in hands in September.
Shipping Phase Beginning
Since the last update, our manufacturer sent us the first units off the production line. We inspected every word on every card, rulesheet, and box, which is more than we've ever made in the past, and we're happy to tell you that everything is perfect! With those production copies approved, the manufacturing has continued and is finishing up as we speak. It's time to start shipping to fulfillment centers! This will take a few weeks yet, but once received there, we'll quickly get them shipping out to your doors, which means the first backers will get them in September.
Last Chance for Address Changes
Since we're starting shipping soon, we need your mailing address so we can prepare all the orders and give them to the fulfillment centers. You should have received an email from BackerKit with a final chance to update your mailing address. If you will be moving in September or October, send us a message on Kickstarter or [email protected] so we work with you directly to make sure your rewards goes to the right place.
Upgrade Kits
We also have exciting news for anyone who is receiving any type of upgrade kit. Rather than sending you just the components that changed, we're going to send you the latest edition of whatever it is you were trying to upgrade. So if you got the Undercover upgrade kit for example, we're just going to send you Undercover 2nd Edition. Since most of the cards/components changed in some way in the latest versions and due to manufacturing economies of scale, it was cheaper to do it this way. You will NOT have to pay any extra for this.
That means you can gift/sell your older versions of the game because, instead of getting upgrade kits, you'll get the full latest version. If you don't have anyone in mind, maybe give it to your favorite local game store or bar/cafe to add to their game library.
San Diego Comic Con
We spent the weekend demo'ing the final versions of Good Cop Bad Cop at San Diego Comic Con! Here are a few pictures from the adventures:
As always, send us questions through message, comment, or email ([email protected]) and we'll get back to you within 24 hours. And if you're every wanting more frequent updates, check out the comments section for Mini Updates.
Almost there, folks!!!

Credit Card Charging and Address Locking Tomorrow
7 months ago
– Fri, Jun 28, 2024 at 07:19:05 AM
Fellow Officers,
We're getting close now and still ahead of schedule! Please see below for updates on manufacturing, shipping, credit card charging, and address changes.
Credit Card Charging Tomorrow
The manufacturing is expected to finish soon, which means the freight shipping phase is about to begin. That's the part where we send the finished games to fulfillment centers. It also means it's time to charge credit cards for the cost of shipping and anything added on in BackerKit. We'll be charging those tomorrow, on June 29th.
Locking Mailing Addresses
Since shipping is about to begin, we need to lock down mailing addresses to begin preparing for the fulfillment phase. Tomorrow we will also start the lock down process of mailing addresses. Please log-in to BackerKit to make sure your address is up-to-date. And if you are moving in late July through September, please let us know with a Kickstarter message or email to [email protected] so we can work with you individually on an exact shipping date to make sure your reward gets to the right address.
San Diego Comic Con
We'll be at San Diego Comic Con next month! We will be in the tabletop area showcasing Good Cop Bad Cop 4th Edition, the Zombies expansion, and Crash & Grab so keep an eye on our social media accounts (Instagram, X, Discord, Facebook, Threads) for pictures and we'll likely post some in an August Kickstarter update too.
Thanks for your patience, officers. Please feel free to send us a Kickstarter message, comment, or email at [email protected] if you have any questions.
Brian and Clayton
