How many figures can you have of one driver. [img]eek.gif[/img]
..looks to be the best so far. Of course my opinion might change when i see the finished product but as of right now I am very pleased. Finally the Dale jr likeness has been nailed! It has been good in the past but the new one is much much closer to the real deal. Kasey Kahne is nailed down PERFECTLY. It looks creapy almost how colse that one is. Although Jeff Gordon could never look intimidating, I love the mean look. Newman is tight. Sadler is tight. And the Jimmie Johnson, from what i can see, looks 20 times better than version 1. I hope we will see some of these guys minus hats (Kahne,Sadler, newman, Johnson, well all of them) for variants.
But now I have a few questions for you Hamady.
1) What happened to Mikey and Dale SR in series 3?
2) Is there any chance Bud will ever let you use the logo on JR?
3) I'm very worried about where to buy these figures. I have yet to find a dealer online that is selling assorted cases of the drivers. Killertoys and Spawntoys have dropped them??!
4) Can you say if there is actually a Jimie Johnson with no sunglasses from series 2 ava at retail?
5) Any hints on NASCAR series 5?
6) Any luck with getting the Rousch drivers?
I know you may not be able to say on a lot of these but I do have an email addy ([email protected])
And also. I am currently working on one last sculpture of spawn. When it is done, I will send it to you and let you review it. If you still dont like it, I am giving it up. So dont hold back!
And Kurt Bush sucks!! So does his brother!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">how may figs can you have of one comic character [img]wink.gif[/img]How many figures can you have of one driver.
In my case with the NASCAR guys, I just pick one or two faves of each driver and leave it at that.
Ususally just one. The only guys I double are guys like Dale Sr, Jr, and Gordon, and even then
for instance , I got a standard uniform Series 1 Gordon, no hat, no shades. Then in series 2 we had a new sculpt, so I got the Pepsi and left it at that.
I'm mainly looking forward to the ones I haven't got, like Jarret signing the car etc... But I don't get 6 variants of each guy. I just think we get a good choice to pick from.
I'm shocked to hear there was a series 2... let alone a 4... I had no idea people were actually buying the figs...
*shrugs*
I honestly believe that the reason the nascar figures arent moving as great as they could is because of total lack of product information. I cant tell you how many people see my figures and say "WOW, those are badass. Where'd you get those?". Most nascar fans dont use the internet much and they dont shop at electronics boutique. i'm a huge nascar fan and i love the figures even if they do the same driver in several different poses. But it's like no one can say anything about these figures. Once in a great while Mark Webber will tell me he is "going to check on it" but then he never,EVER, comes through. He told me he was gonna get me a list of variants for nascar series 2 about 4 months ago and I still have no list. how do you expect to sell something to people if they dont even know it exists? And then if you happen upon it, there is no one to ask about it. I think the nascar figures may be doomed. I sure hope not. Maybe Hamady will shed some light for us. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Yawn... [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img] Where are my Formula-1 drivers line? [img]mad.gif[/img]
bumpage. And if you think NASCAR is yawn and doesnt sell, good luck with the F1 guys.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You are right, that is why Mattel sells over 3 million die cast models every year based on formula-1 cars. Oh wait, and then there's Paul's model art's formula-1 collection, Super detail F-1 model's, Sp Ferrari formula-1 collection. Oh yeah I forgot, good luck to them! Geez how do they do it, most of those companies have been producing F1 related items for well over 10 years? [img]wink.gif[/img]Originally posted by TheRedneckS.G.:

And I never stated that I believe Nascar figures do not sell. [img]wink.gif[/img]
My 'yawn' comment is a personal joke that I share with Stv time to time as he knows I always hound him for F1 drivers. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
