Guest Eastern Front Studios Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 when Kev gave almost $1000 for the pirate that was pretty shocking, $1500 for this is about triple the normal sculpting price for a 60mm mini by even a old master.its awesome Tom can command these prices seems hes getting paid better on ebay then comissioned.

Nathan Caroland Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Yeah, to be honest I planned on bidding on this one but by the time I got around to looking at it again on Saturday I didn't even bother as I started laughing at the price. Well deserved of Tom, glad he can get the price, but when I can have that sculpted from concept art of my own at a good deal less its time to just say 'nah'. Still, I see Ginfritters picked it up so I expect it'll be in metal here soon enough and ya'll can pick one up that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 So, provided they cast it up and sell if for 20 bucks...They'd need to sell what...100 of them to break even? (assuming the casting and packaging costs equal that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 There abouts, probably just a touch more actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 What number indicates a 'good seller' as far as independant mini companies are involved? Selling 100? 250? 1000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauth81 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 from talkbloodbowl.com: "Just thought people here might want to know: the auction was won by Ginfritter's Gnomish Workshop, who will be producing the figure for sale in resin. According to the Ginfritter site, pre-orders will be taken at $20 until April 14th; shipments will begin on April 15th, when the regular price of $25 will go into effect.

Hinton Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yeah, I saw that. I've already pre-ordered mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malebolgia Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 That's too expensive for me, although I like it. Too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Too expensive? The thing is 60mm! Andrea minis are smaller yet cost more, and look at the price of Freebooters for 30mms. $20 is a pretty fair price I'd say. And I pre-ordered one too.
