I\'m using Griffin moulds for my \'Brutal\' mini line. They are based in the U.K but they do casting for a lot of mini companies.

Hope this helps ;)

Ahh. \'oops\' I only know a couple first real names around here...real names are harder to remember if you ask me. :)
Anyway\'s cheers to both Tim\'s! :beer:

Going to be in metal. Not 100% sure about prices yet as Griffin moulds still need to give me a total cost based on the weight.

@Tim Nice one ;)

Okay, although not related to the packaging i just had to share my excitement with you all. Here\'s the first production masters. I hope you like. It\'s like waiting for Christmas around here. ...

I think Jeff has pointed out some major factors.

Pro-create is a wicked putty which lets you have a seamless joins with little effort. I\'d also reccommend a rubber shaper (which someone has alreadt suggested) ;)
