I have had an idea for several years now and with the new Herbie movie coming out in June it's time to try and make something happen with it....
If anyone has any connections in the Toy industry or that may have a connection to have some small plastic pieces made I need to talk to you. For once this is a VERY good idea that I have came up with with a ton of money making potential. Its so simple that I don't want to discuss it here on the net but would with the right person that may be able to help me create it.... |

I do not have a connection to the toy industry, but I am a mechanical engineer and design stuff for a living. I have design experience with all sorts of mechancal stuff - and that includes the design and tooling of small and large injection molded plastic parts. I can design pretty much anything in 3-D CAD.

Cool... My idea isn't so much for a "Toy" but rather something that will need some pieces made from plastic to complete it...
Hi Fi Guy I'll email you, demick send me an email to boss@aircooledtechnology.com Someone that has a connection with Milton Bradley would be GREAT.. |

Jake:
I will PM you with a email and contact info, as well have friend (VP toy design company) and access to a major toy association if interested. In order to "Protect" your interest would suggests that you have "any" interested parties or people of interest SIGN a standard NDA (non disclosure agreement) at least you will have some protection so no one will steal your idea. (I may be able to provide you an electronic sample to tweak for your use; assuming you don't like to Invest into your lawyer's pockets) Side note, we met and talked at the June Jitter Bug show in Niagara Falls, Ontario last summer. And like may others were impressed with your type IV products and knowledge. Good Job and good luck with your business ventures. Allan Mayhew |
