Actually for the benefit of consumer's interest, decided to post this up so to educate consumers on what to look for and also why we had been named as "
The Original 3D Figurine Founder " for the past 15 years in Taiwan, Singapore etc ...
A painted version figurine will look very unreal & plastic feel. It will not be as 3D as 100% sculpted & hand made version clay head figurine.
All "
Unusually Creation " figurines were all 100% sculpted & hand made for the figurines head's. As for the bodies of the figurines, if you going for standard design's, than the figurine body will be pre-made & material used will be polyresin. For such bodies, you will have to take note of the paints used on the figurines bodies. If the paints used on the bodies were too high on lead content, it will cost harm to our health especially for those who had children at home.
PLS TAKE NOTE ON THIS ...But if customers going for 100% customized figurines, than the figurine from head to toe will be 100% totally sculpted & hand made through out. And materials used will be polymer clay. It will be long lasting and even when the figurines got dusty, you can actually rinse it over running water and rinse the dust away and than dried with a soft cloth will do. (This only applied to figurines that got from us
- UNUSUALLY CREATION ...
As for the clay used to make for the figurines, it will also consist of toxic and non-toxic. And the materials prices can different more than 4-5 times. So if someone selling abit cheaper, please take note on the workmanship, materials used etc ...

And all the figurines before reaching the customers, they were randomly picked and send to Laboratory for testing to make sure our clay used were non-toxic & paints used were lead free to approve level etc ...
Why decided to post this up was because there were some distributors all over the world were out there spoiling this market's. As most consumers will not know so much on the technical issues too. They just care about making money and not a manufacturer themselves, what they care will be profit ($$$).
For us, as a producer & manufacturer, we had to make sure what we used and what we had made would be all on the TOP quality and also most important SAFETY too ...
