Super news!
I hope it works out for you, and I can't wait to see the segment. That would be cool to see them use MF figures.
One thing though, Collinsworth was a WR. Why would they want him on defense? Or...are they going to use the figures as part of the intro for the show? That would be really cool. |

The one issue I have with this is that they contact you to do something for them, then you put in a quote, as I'm sure "Someone" else has done the same, and you wait to hear from them. I would believe that in order to get the hobby more exposure(and yourself), the best move would've been to say, "I'll do it for free". This would lead to bigger/better opportunity's down the road. Plus it gives you exposure. I've done plenty of work for NFL coach's/players and teams over the years, and I've never once asked for a penny for it, and the requests keep coming. 4 years ago Wolf and I did a whole set up with the Chiefs/Vikings SuperBowl for NFL films and we didn't charge them anything! Unless you're a manufacturer in the hobby of your own items, there is not much chance of making a livable profit(and even that might not do it). You know how hard it is to even get into making "Miniature Movie Sets"?? or miniatures for any show/film? I'm sure Chris Fields can charm in on this. This isn't a knock on you or anyone else, it's just the belief I have that will preserve the hobby and advance the hobby to new level. Give now and the rewards will come later. Sorry, I'm rambling, so I'll stop. |

From what they have told me is in the segment they will be playing with the figures. They want Bengals defense against Giants offense. Im not sure how they will include Warren. I should find out something by tomorrow or mon. Guttman thanks for the advice. I offered that but he insisted I should get paid since his bosses have budgeted for it. I did though give a big discount and offered a free 620 for them to use with free Refs, Chain Crew, etc. They have an Excalibur they had planned on using. We'll see what happens.

well it looks like I'm in!! I've been in contact this morning back and forth with showtime via email. I am freaking excited about this!! I feel very fortunate and honored to be asked to do this especially since there are so many other great painter/customizers here. Many who I feel are better than me (Megawattz,Gridironpainter,Chris, Guttman, just to name a few) So many great guys on here! Anyway I will post any other details as I get them. I hope this only makes this hobby grow even more.
