      amazon's not really a good gauge for pricing. ebay is more accurate.

        Here are some pics from another forum:

        And because of all their tears,
        Their eyes can't hope to see
        The beauty that surrounds them
        Isn't it a pity".

          Thanks! Those actually look pretty cool. It's a shame they missed out on the art-toy movement by about a decade.

            Wow - It's really great to get a good look at these. I remember following their development and marketing as well.

            So, essentially they were selling painted hardcopies as final product?

              Yep those pics are accurate. I was going through the set again yesterday and everything it came with and even found an apology letter hand signed by the owner/creator. Def. one of a few rare sets. So any word on worth or anyone else have any? Do you think Amazon is high or low? Nothing on ebay for awhile...

                They are resin copies.

                  My lost images from the first post.
                  Set #69 from the first production run. This set cost $100 for the first run and it took many calls and promises from David and finally the BBB to step in to get my figures.






                  Rare wave two figures that were to be the next wave. There were 4 or 6 of these figures, at $50 each this was all I could afford at the time. They are #25 each. I wish I could have gotten the rest of them.

                    Prototype figures given to me by David Reeves as a "peace" offering. They match the pics of the figures in the magazines of the time.

                      Hey!

                      The one on the right looks like Wayne Barlowe's depiction of the Demu.
