Sculpt quality is probably a little more difficult, but the price and durability are way better. Furthermore, there's so many metal minis around that it's harder to compete: pre-painted will be your extra, but those who spend big $ on metal figure also consider painting a nice part of their hobby, and may not want a paint job and color selection done by someone else.If you go for pre-painted plastic, basically you're competing only with WotC. You can't really compete on the minis game ground IMHO, but you can target those like me who stay away from WotC minis because of the random factor.If I may suggest something more:- concentrate on monsters rather than characters- do lots of iconics and some occasional weirdo...and the most important one:- do large figuresThings like Ogres, Golems, Giants and of course DRAGONS are useful in EVERY setting. If you do these large figures and sell them for less than 5$ each, I'm sure you're going to sell thousands and thousands of them...   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
