Omini nesting mini group buy...

If you were at AMVIV than you saw the nesting mini at my booth. In case you didn't here thery are.













I am putting together a group by. The first batch of these Nesting Minis sold out last week all over the world. I have the excllusive on these toys and I can get us a great price on them. If there is enough intrest.

The Monte Carlo version will be in next week. The first batch of these sold out with in the week they arrived. So if you are interested in these toys post here. If there is enough intrest I'm also looking into custom colors.


I would like to get an idea of how many people would be interested in the Montey Carlo. That is the one that goes the quickest.

Cheerio

I gather the pricing isn't set yet, but what ballpark would people be looking at price wise?

Between $20 and $25. I'm hoping that I can include shipping with that. They have three different kinds avalable right now. the two you see and a red one with a chineese letter on the roof.

In case anyone is wondering what the heck these are for--as I was, and you came up a little short after visiting the www.odoll.com site and seeing cats everywhere, here is a description of a NESTING DOLL taken from the odoll.com site.

"Matryoshka" are Russian wooden dolls with smaller dolls stacked within the bigger ones.

In provincial Russia before the revolution the name Matryona or Matiyosha was a very popular female name. It was derived from the Latin root 'mater' which meats 'mother'. This name was associated with the image of a mother of a big family who was very healthy and had a portly figure. Subsequently, it became a symbolic name and was used specifically to describe brightly painted woodedn dolls made in such a way that they could be taken apart to reveal smaller dolls fitting inside one another.

Even now nesting doll is considered to be a symbol of motherhood and fertility. A mother doll with numerous dolls-children perfectly expresses the oldest symbol of human culture.
