Um, I want to ask, um, like what makes, uh, with the Star Wars figures specifically, or, or even the Battletech ones, um, what makes a good figure and what, um, what are you looking for when you're sculpting a figure? Um, is it, is it, uh, a good canvas for the paint? Is it a good likeness, the level of detail? Like what was it you were looking for when you were trying to do a good sculpt?

Well, I mean, all of those things apply to different levels.

For me, a concern always was, can it be cast? You see a lot of wonderful digital sculpts that get 3D printed, and you could never cast them in the conventional way that I was used to working.

And they would have to be multi-parts.

And of course, with metal multi-part, there are no fusion techniques that are suitable for white metal miniatures to bond the pieces together the way you can with a plastic model.

So assemblies were always an issue.

In fact, when we first got the Battletech license, one of the things was, as much as possible, one piece robots.

And how do you step in at that point?
