 | | What would you think of a crusader torso being available? —Doyle G. Nelson
|
| | | Hello, I was considering having crusader torso's silk screened on white torso's either red or blue crosses. It would probably cost $5 each torso. I would have to do a 1000 at a time. Who would be interested and how many would they want. At least it (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | (...) I might be interested, but probably not at 5 bucks a pop. What I'd like to know, though, is where you're getting your hands on 1000 white torso's! James (URL) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | (...) WOW. They're $5 each even at that kind of quantity?! Man, I'd love some, but I doubt I could bring myself to buy in the quantity I'd like at that price. Note, I know nothing about silk screening, so maybe this is a good deal. I just hope you (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | (...) This seems like a John Neal sort of question. He silk screens T shirts for a living. Not the same, exactly but he presumably would know what it should cost, the technology is similar. (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | (...) Hrmmm.... maybe it's the miniaturization that makes it so expensive. Silk screening t-shirts is one thing, but silk screening a shirt not even an inch square may be something entirely different... Maybe it's so expensive for the same reason (...)

| | | | | | Basically the problem is it is plastic and they have to make a mold to hold the torso's then they have to transfer the image you want on the plastic using a special type of paint or ink that will stay on the plastic, much like MotherBoards. Its not (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

Wonder what it would take to have custom sticker sheets produced? Having to cut (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | (...) The job is completely custom, so it would be a hassle, but depending upon how many colors were printed I think even $4 is high for a single color. Less than $2. (...) Better yet-- decals. One can buy blank sheets from Micro-Scale and print (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

Pre-cut sheets would be so much nicer, although probably horribly expensive. (...) (25 years ago, 2-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)
