Hey guys!

I am currently in the production stage of developing some 1:18 figures for a variety of diecast models.

At present, I am trying to work out how many I need to produce in terms of general interest, and also whether the costs of making them will outweigh the actual demand rate.

So, without further disruption, I present to you my custom 1:18 driver figurine.

If you would be so kind as to estimate for me how much you would be prepared to pay for such a figure in its clean resin state; in a base coated colour state (ie, red and white for ferrari, blue and yellow for renault etc), and also how much you would be prepared to pay for a completed figurine painted and decalled by myself. (You will have to use your imagineation to visualise it being finished, based on its current level of quality/workmanship!).

And, again sorry to be a nuisance, but this really helps me out! Woudl you prefer the models to arrive simply wrapped in protective sheathing such as bubblewrap; or would you be prepared to pay extra for a well thought out and graphically customised micro box design?

Current pose comes with clenched fists, driver suit etchings to show stitching/cloth material movements/hans device/open visor/figure face shows under visor/clenched fists/ooh and clenched bum, with genuine mock bum creases! :D ;D

Many thanks in advance!

Anyone interested in larger quantities of orders, or know they would definitely like to buy some, please do email me and I can get to grips on numbers! It is a biggie factor!

Comments and Criticisms welcome - and for the record, I am a British Architecture Student - so no funny business, just some funky language here and there. :)

Sorry, put it in the wrong place, serves me right for opening too many firefox windows!
(and again apologies for not putting in classifieds, I assumed this was a sort of aftermarket thing and not a specific car sale as such, so forgive me please! Regards, Dan :) )

the gloved hands look a liitle to large for the rest of the piece
