I would like to create a product very similar to tonies (www. Tonies. COM) and the characters/figurines would be of my farm animals. I'm writing a series of children's books about my animals and would like to create other merchandise of my animals as well, including a very similar product to tonies. I would love any assistance or ideas on how we can manufacture a similar version to tonies. I have a total of 20 animals, so I would need 20 figurines. The problem is, I am a disabled single mom with a small hobby farm. I have very limited funds to invest in this, so I'm hoping that my manufacturer will be willing to be affordable and allow me to purchase small minimum orders until I get off the ground with my business.
