What exactly does that phrase "to go for a pretty penny" mean?
By the way, I forgot to mention that in early November I got the other spoons I had been looking for. The spoons of Ducky and Cera will make as good positives for tin figures as the one of Spike did. The Littlefoot spoon is not as good (he is in a strange sitting posture and his head seems a bit too small). The spoons came along with LBT cups and lids for the cups shaped as pieces of LBT landscape (rocks, plants etc.). I consider making moulds for these lids to use them as sockets for the tin figures. Those lids are too large to cast them with tin with the tools I have (apart from the fact that it would be very expensive) so I consider using plaster for them.
"Pretty penny" means "alot of money."
Trust me, just finding the right person to sell Land Before Time stuff to can make you very rich. (Hey! Works for penny collectors who are after the rarest of rare and will pay $1,000,000 just for a certian penny that's incredably hard to find.)
As for the figures you're making, if you really want to save money, I'd suggest an inexpensive clay like "Play-doh" to actually make them with. Then again, clay does break easily, (Which is why people make it harden by extreme heat. Just so it has a lower chance of breaking.) so it might not be a good idea.
EDIT: Oh, and just for the record, I've got a sticker of Baby Littlefoot licking a purple leaf of some kind. (He's actually holding it like a human would a newspaper.)
Got it for being a good patient at a doctor's appointment I had a long time ago. (It was the only Land Before Time one in the basket.)
