"Mega Miniatures is teaming up with  sculptors this spring 2008 for a unique project. ÂWe are asking our customers WHAT types of human sized or smaller 25mm scale miniatures they would like to see? ÂWe cannot say WHEN or WHAT would be produced but if there are figures that you would purchase or have a use for that are NOT available by other companies of ANY subject matter please feel free to e-mail me your desires. ÂNo subject matter is TOO crazy.  They won't sell for the CHEAP $1.50 price but we are planning on releasing Groups of 5 different figures on a specific subject for around $9.99 to $11.99 a pack (around $2 each) and these offerings will NOT be sold in stores but only available through Mega Miniatures online store at www.MegaMinis.com" | |

| There's already a number of companies out there that do that. Shadowforge is one of them I think.

Let's keep the discussion to miniature ideas that would target a niche or under-served market, without being inappropriate for a wide audience. Thanks.

| Very cool.
My thoughts: from steamfantasy to technological fantasy, then Aeons/Summons and some characters from FF, some jedi, ancient times-themed soldiers (Rome, Greece).
EDIT: Also, why only 25 mm? :( | |

| I think because 25 mm tends to be the D&D scale.
I could go for some quality steampunk minis.

| | DDM is 32mm (actually some of the earlier sculpts were close to 25mm, but most now range from 28-32mm), so the scale would really be off. I bought a King's Court set for Christmas, and the minis looked like children compared to DDM (had to send them back). It's a real shame though, as they have some much needed nobility, townfolk, animals, etc., but then you still have to paint them. | |
