Amid Troy Baker's NFT controversy, allegations that the voice actor failed to deliver on a 2017 crowdfunding project have emerged. Fans claim that - even approaching five years since the project launched - they are yet to receive any physical items that were promised with their pledge. Most damningly, some claim that these items were then sold by Baker at conventions, as they still wait to receive them.
While this controversy has been quietly discussed since 2017, this renewed attention comes from an extensive Resetera thread on the matter. The crowdfunder was hosted on the now-defunct pledgemusic.com, and was in aid of funding music project Window To The Abbey. Pledge rewards include signed copies of the record, vinyl, and signed photos. While digital rewards were said to be distributed, these physical ones were allegedly not, nor did fans receive refunds.

Resetera user MinusTydus provides a breakdown of the project. "The crowdfunding goal was reached on April 17, 2017. Then the delays started. June 2017 became October 2017. October 2017 became 2018. 2018 became 2019. And in May 2019, PledgeMusic unceremoniously died."
From that point, communication continued, but no items were apparently received. MinusTydus also shares the last email they were sent on the matter:
"Hello Friends! First of all, we want to say thank you all so much for your continued patience with this project! I know it's been a long time coming! We have the CDs in hand and the vinyls are on their way to us! The handwritten lyrics and coffee table book are the remaining things that we're working on..."
MinusTydus isn't the only one to make these complaints. Twitter
