Our client base will be located in any corner of the world, but primarily in countries that support ecological projects aimed at combating plastic pollution:
- Germany
- France
As well as countries like:
- USA
- UAE
And of course, Ukraine.
Our client age range will be from 16 to 70+, and we will have figures designed for various age groups and other categories of people.
Проблема или Возможность
When designing interior spaces, often they appear visually appealing but feel empty, filled with many uniform products that fail to fill the space as desired or as we imagine. Additionally, there is an excess of plastic waste polluting the environment and harming ecosystems.
Конкуренты
Competing brands are mostly not exclusive. For example, Bearbrick offers interesting and memorable figurines, but they only differ in their coloring. Additionally, they are made from common materials.
Преимущества или дифференциаторы
We are exclusive, with different collections, and we will be particularly valued by enthusiasts of refined brands and environmental advocates. Our product, as well as the process of its creation, does not harm the environment; on the contrary, it helps it through its concept.
Each collection will be memorable, but our brand will always stay relevant thanks to:
Exclusive figures produced in limited quantities, both on demand and at auctions.
Limited edition collections.
We will always offer something new, interesting, and relevant, setting us apart from competitors.
Финансы
Briefly about revenue sources:
- Selling figures at auction.
- Custom figure manufacturing.
- Social media advertising.
The cost of the first figure was $1540 excluding packaging and details (approximate estimated cost - $2200). Markup will depend on various factors as indicated in the PDF file. Since our printed figures will be sold through auctions, determining the exact estimated value is difficult.

Решение (Продукт или Услуга)
My figures, made from recycled plastic using a 3D printer, offer unique and aesthetically pleasing solutions for interior design. This allows for creating picturesque accents and uniqueness in the space, expanding the possibilities of decoration and personal expression of style.
The figures are made from recycled plastic, reducing the amount of waste and contributing to environmental restoration. This not only enables the creation of unique and high-quality products but also promotes the conservation of natural resources and reduces the negative impact on the planet.
In the absence of sufficient resources, the product may simply go unnoticed. Brand presentation is a crucial component of a successful launch, so without quality control and detailed manufacturing development, the product may fail. Due to these factors, it's challenging to create an MVP for this product without resources because:
1. The cost of production is too high, and customers may be hesitant to pre-order from a relatively unknown (for now) brand.
2. The waiting time for the first figures may differ from what is stated, which could negatively impact reputation.
3. Significant investments and patience are required for a successful and safe start.
4. There's also the risk of failure due to overwhelming competition.
Navigating these challenges will require careful planning, strategic investment, and a strong commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
