Hi everyone--this is my first post here, so go easy on me ;)
I'm building my first board game, "Stump the Rumpus", and will be launching it as a project on Kickstarter in the coming weeks. While I've been able to work out the details for making a quality board, I'm having a devil of a time finding inexpensive, quality custom game pieces.
Does anyone know where I can find inexpensive, quality custom plastic game pieces? I'm looking to make 3 separate 4" characters with a round base.
There are a few DIY blank pawns out there (http://www.escapadedirect.com/blankpawn1.html), as well as generic wooden pawns, but any custom plastic miniatures start at $8 apiece, and even then the quality isn't so great. I need something where I can add character, but keep costs down. Any and all help would be great! Thank you in advance :)
