Frequently Asked Questions
While we are always just a phone call or email away, below are answers to some frequently asked questions about custom toy manufacturing.
Can I get a sample to show around to buyers?
Yes. Once all the details of your idea are conveyed we will design and manufacture a one of a kind prototype for you. The sample charge of $500.00 can be paid by check or credit card.
How do I protect my idea?
Protecting your ideas starts withe the signing of an NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement). This document means that we cannot reproduce your product without permission. Contact us for an NDA to review and sign.
How much does my idea cost to produce?
There are many design choices that can affect the final produced price.
Quantity - the more you order the less you pay per piece.
Size - the larger the size the more material needed and the higher the shipping costs will be as well.
Quality - there are many different qualities of plush and materials, all ranging greatly in price.
Detail - similar to the differences in quality but from a manufacturing point of view. A good example of two varying levels of detail in a toy are:
