The figures look great. The price however is crazy. The average two-figure resin set goes for about $35 USD, not $367 USD. Good luck selling them.

Gino,

Ekapong is selling them as "Masters" literally.

Cheers

Sure man.. Perhaps you should write to the resin companies like BlastModels, Warriors,etc,etc to see if they want to buy your masters..

Good luck!

Yes, I understand you intend to sell these as "masters", ie; a one of a kind. I still think you are over pricing them for an individual. Maybe a resin company would pay that much and cast them up, thus making their money back.

Like I said, good luck with them.

That's exactly what "masters" are. Companies buy them and cast the figures under their own label. "Master" of an individual figure go for $500, so I don't think these are overpriced.

The average, past-time builder would not be able to afford these at this price. I believe it best to seek a serious offer from a manufacturer, if you want these to move. As well, you may be able to enter into an agreement with said manufacturer to produce new figures. Just MHO.

Right, we are all saying the same thing. The likelyhood of an individual modeler buying them is not very high. The likelyhood of a manufacturer buying them is pretty good. It would be better to contact a resin manufacturer than try to sell them here.

Thanks for all comment and advice.
Maybe I will contact a resin manufacturer.
But this is Buy-Sell forum so I can post here.
