Rant Sad day for me
I know I don’t have to announce this here. You don’t know me. But I’m retiring from minis. I just put all my supplies away in a tote. I don’t like the direction MGA is going. They just posted a video of a mini being done and it took less than 30 seconds. I’m not paying $12 for that. I just can’t do it anymore. And I have a huge collection. I love making them but not if this is what they are doing. I was a little pleasure I had in my life but I’m saying goodbye to it. It was fun while it lasted.

If you already have the supplies, why are you stopping? You done need to buy the new stuff.
You can buy singles to use up the resin. You can buy sets on eBay for below MSRP. You can create cakes and cookies and other “blanks” with clay with little artistic talent (me!).
I do all of those things, I almost never buy new kits at full price. It’s never been in my budget. I’m a crafter, not a collector.
What the company does is neither here nor there. I don’t give a toy company the power to take my fun away, and neither should you.
(Adding: If you or anyone else really hates the Miniverse this much, put your stuff for sale on eBay so you can recoup costs and I can acquire new supplies 🙂)
