I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

B) No licensing fees.

So what kind of original lines would you like to see ?
please no more zombies!! they been done to death (no pun). and you will most likely lose money just look at how many zombie/undead statues are in the bargain bins noone wants.


1) A traditional female knight, not the lame idealized version with boobs hanging out, but a realistic female knight in full body armor.





2) A female angel in full body armor & sword in hand, again not the lame big boob but a more traditional realistic version (with much better face & wings than in the photo)



3) An asian blademaster like below, but with a straw hat to cover up the face.



Those are all pretty difficult pieces, you really need an excellent sculpter/painter to correctly done the intricate details on armor/faces. But they should sell well since they are so unique and there is nothing out there like it.

and for some quick cash, a 1/4 t-rex is always easy. Sideshow's version is going for $800 in aftermarket.

A lot of companies seem to be doing this now. Sideshow has had their original line for a while now and Gentle Giant just showed their Honey Trap line at SDCC.

I wouldn't mind seeing just some generic, quarter scale female sculpts for customizing.

I wish someone would make a 20"+ high quality gundam statue like this but a wee bit cheaper than $15000...

I built quite a few of their model kits as a kid and saw the cartoons, so that always bring back some nostalgia.
