    Small Frize

    I'm officially in the toy making business now and just wanted to share my first project. I recently got these from the factory in China and for the most part I'm happy with the final product but getting these made was an unbelievable nightmare. If anyone here is considering trying to have toys mass produced in China be prepared to sacrifice a small part of your sanity.

      Ooh, Clown Arounds are back, and this time, they're unsuitable for children under three!

      Is there a back story to the little ninjets?

        Thanks for the compliment

        There's not really much of back story to these little guys, other than most people think ninjas are cool and the small scale brought down the production costs. This line is pretty much just my first attempt at getting some experience with how the whole mass produced toy process works. I'm not sure what I'll do next but I'd like to attempt something that has a retro feel to it.

            Thanks! If you buy the white, red, and black uniform ninjas as a set the price is $30.00 shipped. The gray version is much more expensive because, thanks to factory errors, it's extremely limited. These fall more into the designer toy category rather than mass market so they won't be offered at major retail stores. You can find a little more info on my website: http://www.zicatoys.com

              Neat, I like them way better than what's already out there, never had any interest in homies and the like.

                Thanks! I'll definitely be going in a different direction for my next project, both in terms of design and production numbers.
