About publishing my own Mego sized patterns through one of the pattern companies, like Simplicity, or Butterick, or even going independent.
Now, getting a business license and tax license are two things I have to do first, then write a business plan and start drafting a few patterns.
Aside from all of that, what would my fellow Megoheads like to see in sewing patterns?
Mind you, the first set will strictly be for the females, who didn't have nearly as many options as Action Jackson, and were mostly relegated to wearing superhero outfits, Walton clothes, or Dinah-mite outfits.
I figured on starting with basic stuff: Panties; tights; skirts; pants and maybe a bodyshirt/leotard/blouse.
But what else do you want to see?
Superhero outfits are great; I figure a basic leotard/bodysuit, cape will do well for any thing.
The materials for the suit would mostly be spandex, or spandex blends.
If I go independent, I can pretty much set my own price; if I go the pattern company route, I think I have to split it with them a certain amount.
A pattern set for guys would definitely be in the future.
Is there a market amongst my fellow Megoheads for this stuff? Or am I simply reaching too high?
A separate pattern set for the ZICA model would also be in the future.
Since neither figure is out yet, I have no way of drafting patterns for them. Especially the female, who has to have three different sized bodices made, due to the three different sized booby options she's going to have.
Don't be shy; let your voices be heard.
Just don't be mean, otherwise you will get not only a virtual atomic wedgie, but a matching noogie to go with it.
