:( Hello Guys! I wasn't happy when I Heard NMA, is No Longer inThe Toy Business! I was Looking forward for their MARDER's, and Future Products! I hope that HONOUR BOUND, doesn't decide to Leave the Toy Business also? I have a Good Notion to think that the Chinese, is getting back at the West, because of their Power Struggle, and because we in the U.S., has made the Chinese Imbarrased, of their Lead Toy making Production Importation to the World, especially the U.S.! Also, NOW CHINA, is getting More Richer, from Exporting goods to the Western World, and they Now becoming , too ("big for their britche's")! They will Pay any amount to get OIL , from the Saudi's! Which puts the Western World in a Bind! Anyhow , this leaves us Toy Collector's, to look forward for HB, Figarti, and K & C, to gives us MORE Variety of Toys for the Future! Sorry, Blake that things couldn't work out for you? Take Care and Good Luck!
 
I am always hearing horror stories from some of my venders about doing business in China. The toy industry is "cut throat". It's very hard to do business in China unless you have connections there plus an insider to watch your interest at all times. You will probably see NMA stuff floating around with someone else's name on it. One of my action figure manufactures discovered his product being offered by another company. His designs and patterns were stolen my the factory he was using. They even used his materials that he had paid for to make the stuff.
 
I've got an ice cream headache after reading that post John; someone should put that on a tee shirt............:rolleyes:
 
May not be the place for this but, it should make us appreciate all the more the tremendous job K&C have done and continue to do.
Starting a business is always a huge risk and you have to take your hats off to those who do it and to those that are successful.

P.S. It looks like Figarti has gotten past the early danger point in it's venture as well.
