Add no mold for kicks in the final poll. It just jacks up the price and to be honest I don't like any of them. |

What caught my eye about these chips was the very first mockup posted here... the pink one that had a blank mold and a grand inlay. Very slick looking. The inlay is what these chips are all about... the mold is really headed down the sh*tter in my opinion. It seems like these molds are being "forced"... the chip doesn't really need them, but everyone wants to make one just because it can be done. These molds will definitely "fight" with the inlay... I agree. |

I'm awaiting a response on the few mold tweaks I asked FJohnson about. He seems to be MIA, and I'm waiting on him to decide on the mold. All this polling seems to be a runaround, and I'm just going to have to make an executive decision on this. |

i actually think the turtles look pretty good, and was thinking about getting in on this groupbuy.
but the pal trees or no special mold would be good to.
in fact if we could save about 10 cents or so a chip by going without a special mold i would most definitely be in.
i will leave the important decision making to the guys that have worked on this for a long time, but I am interested. |
