Dewayne Jennings mini mcfarlanes finally hit miniature football

I'm quite sure you have done some research yourself considering designing your own figures! Therefore you have a good idea how much these sculpts cost and how much they cost to mass produce in china. Additionally, Todd does way more volume than this hobby can support which drives his cost down per figure. BTW, have you priced what the wargamming miniatures sell for? I just inked a deal with two local hobby shops to carry my line and they also agreed with my price point based on my volume and potential interest. Your input is respected.

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.

It's not just saying they are mini mcfarlens.It is a fare price and in the world of EF 10 bucks is common price for custom figs.You are getting more detail than most custom figs have.If you have any teams of customs yes it will be costly.Dwayne has done an awesome job bringing detailed figs to the EF community at a good price.
