Sold as singles or a set, some minis are as cheap as 25 cents each with the vast majority in the $1 to $2 range. This is the only release I will have in 2014.

The figures are 28mm scale, cast in white metal (tin alloy), unpainted, with a flat rate world shipping rate of $10, Paypal accepted, and a minimum order of $15 or more.



I've been throwing in 10 extra random minis of my choice (five human sized and five small animals) with all orders of $30 or more from now through the month of August.

Appreciate your support, and wanted to offer some incentive for orders received early to keep operations running smoothly instead of a rush at the end of October.

While this looks interesting, and like the kind of thing I might actually be interested in at some point for scenarios and zombie games, etc, I don't see the point in making it so limited. At $100, it's not quite an impulse buy, and needs to be prioritised above a lot of other "more important" things in order to get it.

Checked the PDF, and the GODS stuff also looks good. Never heard of them before. Might have bought them if they still existed, but not never will. Likewise with the Megaminis cats that I only heard about recently and probably would have bought a set of two of the whole lot, which are now spread across a dozen manufacturers - thus ensuring that I never buy any of them.

Yay!

I think you are missing the point. You haven't noticed anything I've produced in the last 14 years and yet your interested in many of the products and I've produced over 1,700 different figures.

Hence, the set is limited production for 100 days to give interested persons 100 days to come up with the money which is certainly better than what KS projects give miniature and game enthusiasts. if I keep it in production long term, people will just push off buying it and never actually hit the check out button.

Your absolutely right about the fact there is a tsunami of products produced these days and that is great for everyone but hard on the wallet. Hoping you'll prioritize the range by October 31st and I do appreciate you taking the time to download the pdf which is a new tool for showing actual size/scale that I think most people will appreciate. Here is some more eye candy.

Jesus Christ on a fething crutch.

I've never even heard of you until about 2 months ago when I saw your (sold off) range of cats on someone else's blog. Your tone that I "haven't noticed anything I've produced in the last 14 years" comes across as unnecessarily combative and accusatory. Yeah, that's all my fething fault. Should I have somehow noticed your products back in 2000 when I shopped at local stores in Australia who didn't carry your stock? Should I have somehow gravitated to your specific tiny business back in 2005 or 2007 when I made my first few online purchases for very specific figures? Yeah, again that's all my fault. My bad for not having heard of a small company that has a total of 16 posts on one of the biggest gaming forums on the internet. (All of these two made in 2014!) I should really be seeking out obscure manufacturers of figures at all times. Should I perhaps have been looking for models back in 2010 that I might want one day in the future (cats, for example) and prioritising them over things I wanted at that moment?

Yeah, it's all my bad. I'm such a prick like that. I'm sorry I haven't been seeking out information on things I've never heard of. It's in no way reflective of your lack of promotion or online presence. All my fault.




Anyway, dead animals is such a small, tiny niche - one that I can't even entirely see a use for - scenery perhaps? That it's just not going to be something I prioritise. On the other hand, it's the kind of quirky thing I can appreciate enough to buy when there's nothing pressing on my plate and I have a spare hundred bucks - which does happen, but it's far from every payday. And quite honestly, your tone isn't exactly helping your cause or convincing me to give this guy my money.

So anyway, you might just be the one missing the point. I've just discovered that your business is a thing that exists, and by disposing of all of your old moulds over the years, you've also disposed of a bunch of sales that would have been made this year.

The size of the figures on the pdf depends on the size of your screen, it's not actual size. I guess you have to print them?

Good to see Mega Minis is still around, I thought you were shutting your doors.

I'll have to see what you're still selling.

These are pretty great! I'll be putting in an order for sure as these fit perfectly with a post-apoc themed highway table I am making.
