Summary of The West Coaster (4 Viewers)

[RWFigarti]

Dear All,

First of all, thank you ALL for your comments on our NEW items launched at the West Coaster. This was a FUN show, I want to thank Steven, Carlos & Mike especially, for their coverage and support for Figarti Miniatures.

I made some announcements at this show which I hope to briefly summarize here:

1. Figarti will become Figarti Miniatures
2. Starting 2007, we will only make limited editions only, and mostly limited to 100 pieces.
3. We will not re-run any products even if demand surpass supply
4. We will be re-designing our website with a special feature of virtual factory tour
5. We will be sending out MONTHLY E-NEWSLETTER to update on upcoming new products and retired items.
6. We are focused this year to:
Improve sculpting to make it more animated, To use a NEW paint technique which looks MUCH better, To make our figurines more durable.
7. We will move into our NEW work shop (Factory) Mid-March

Louis, Larry, and Hans, thanks for inviting my Dad to your symposium, I am sure he will really enjoy it.

We have some GREAT new items coming, stay tune to our first E-NEWLETTER, and thank you all for your support. I look forward to Chicago this year!!! Another "Lunch with Figarti Miniatures?" FOR SURE!

Rick,

I think you means Hans instead of me but we will all do what we can to make him feel at home. Sorry you won't be there.

You have some great looking releases coming down the pike.

... 4. We will be re-designing our website with a special feature of virtual factory tour ...

For those of you interested in how the toy soldier factories in China operate, this feature will be very informative. Figarti "Miniatures" will have 20 cameras in its factory. I believe once a month, registered collectors will receive a pin number which will allow them to see the feed from these cameras in real time. You get to see sculptors, painters, casters, etc.

Impressive!
