So, anyone who's been on the forums (specifically Aywas Talk) will have seen that I'm playing with the idea of getting melo figurines made. Why melos? Prototype development for figurines is very expensive, so we can only have one figurine at this time if we want one, and melos have the most colors and the most popularity. :)
Anyway, the figurines would be three inches, solid vinyl with that beautiful vinyl smell. They will be packaged in a box that gives you a random melo figurine of 10 different colors, so every box will be full of excitement. *flail*
Aside from that, there will be pure white melo figurines available for you to color on with markers, paint, etc and make your own customs. We can have monthly or bi-monthly "melo custom figurine" contests if enough people are interested in coloring white figurines for prizes. :)
Here are the colors we've tentatively chosen. I say tentatively in that you can give me suggestions for replacing out a color with another color, and if enough people agree it'll be done. :)
In closing, before any of this can happen (and I hope it can, man, I want a ton of these things all over my room and house... everywhere you turn--MELO!), there needs to be sufficient interest from the userbase. So, poll time! Keep in mind that USD buyers would be first, so if you CAN use USD (or any other PayPal supported currency, lol) pick that first before GP!
The trading cards are still on the list of cool ideas, but since they require so much custom art and templating, they might be be around for a while - just for anyone wondering!

I agree with the price, it's a little high - I wouldn't be willing to pay that much for just one...but like everyone else says, bulk discounts, or 4-5 for one.

Rather than a zombie and a sugar skull, how about a nightblood or a cherry blossom tiger ?

I don't think the price is too expensive at all, these types of figures sell for around that price or more everywhere else. :)

Will these just be sold in the US or will they be able to be shipped to the rest of us? c:

I'd like to see the zombie one gone and possibly a Oryx Melo? Otherwise, I like the idea, especially the blank Melo figure. :3 I'd love one to customize.

I like the idea but... I don't like the skull one #1, Zombie #2, really bright blue one #5, pink skull one #6 or the lime green one #8.
A Golden Tiger, A wolf, an astral, a binary & a bonfire would be much cooler.
I'd probably not buy these unless I could choose the colour of them, as it stands.
It'd be kinda cool to maybe have a set of all 10?
If I did buy though it'd be in USD.

I like the colors you have chosen, honestly. I probably wouldn't buy them if they were the natural colorations because, well, if I want animal colors I'd just buy straight up animal figurines. Definitely looking forward to the Sugar Skull and the Love Leopard, as both are some of my favorites. C:

YESS SUGARSKULL. Please keep that one! That would be my dream, I'd buy a few blindboxed just to see how it goes xD
Wouldn't the vampire one pose problems and incur extra cost? The teeth give it a different mold from all the others, so he would have to be sculpted separately and printed separately (rather than just being the same vinyl gone through a different paint job, like the others).
My only suggestion is either the Eggnog Melo, or the Holiday Candy Melo! I'd pay fucking extra for a Holiday Candy... my dear beloved Treat ;___;

I'd buy the Zombie one without a second thought. And a white customizable one, too. :B

I might buy these, but I really don't like the Sugar Skull or Zombie colors. If those stayed, and it was random, I don't think I'd risk it. Not a big fan of the Nightblood or Dandelion, either. ^_^; I love the idea of the Cherry Blossom, Bonfire, Sunset, Tiger, etc, though c:
