1:24 Motorcycle Figures
Posted by DennisB on Sunday, May 18, 2008 11:03 AM
    I am looking at producing a 1:24 scale motorcycle figure. The last company to make these was Elita and there are almost none to be found. These would have a mature rather than a comical look to them. I need your feedback. Is this a poor idea? Your replies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your input. Regards, Dennis.

I would buy them.   I miss the Elita figures, they are great for G scale.  Be sure to include dynamic Triumph riders as well as the boring Harleys.Wink [;)]

I have discovered that Elita is still in business but no longer produces the morcycle figures. They used to make the LGB line of figures. I currently have a quote to produce a biker figure, but I find it too high. Is there a need for such an item? Is it worth pursuing? Dennis.
