Thanx PapaBlueMarlin, I dont know if it is so much dedication as I just find it fum making these characters. I gave up entirely my freelance work for this because it was so much more fulfilling...and who knows, maybe one day I can get rid of my day job as well (or such is my dream LOL). Yeah there are definatly plusses and minuses for each figure, that is why I put together this little market study, to see where people were going, and what they were looking for. It was all quite informative,,,though I will keep my eyes open if any more opinions show up. thanx again Rawn
