That is very true regarding the production of minis. Getting a good green can cost quite a lot on its own - $15 to $20 per MILLIMETER in height. And there is not the fan base to support mass production. Furthermore, you can't do these in metal which is a lot cheaper than plastic in the short run...it has to do with the ramp up to getting the injection molds done. By the way ARE you doing these in plastic or resin? If resin, be careful of the type of resin being used. Some resins can be quite brittle, but there are others that are a bit more like rubber and more durable. But I'm sure you've worked all that out already. As far as the price point, these will be connoisseur's miniatures . . . obviously not for guys just starting out....a single team of offense and defense will run you $220 strictly using these figs. That being said, the sculpts are quite beautiful and anyone who owns them will be the envy of his fellow coaches. I hope they do very well for you.
