Last time I posted one of these pix, it was noted that I had a lot fewer Readin' Buddy Bears in the display case and now I have even fewer. They haven't sold as well as I'd hoped, but I have given several to charities and fundraisers for local events, so they've been a success that way. I still have more than the three in the case though, should anyone out there be interested in one...

wow-GB! that's a lot of little people/thingies/ewoks. do you plan to sell them, or are they just for show?
Honestly, I don't think I'd want to sell them, since two of the three sets are completely irreplaceable.
I could, hypothetically, reproduce the Star Wars set exactly, since every figure in the set is a "stock" figure from West End Games and with effort I could collect the same 32 pieces and then paint them.
The two superhero/supervillains sets are another matter. The Marvel Heroes side is all "stock" figures from TSR games and again, hypothetically, I could re-do that part of the set. However, the Marvel Villains and both the Heroes and Villains in the DC set contain numerous custom figures that would be near to impossible to reproduce. Even IF I could find the exact same figures again (HIGHLY unlikely) the customizing would likely turn out differently.
That said, I might be interested in doing a commission if a well heeled collector wanted their own unique set. Once I've perfected my "bottling" technique I could create a custom set to virtually any specification.
