Would you watch a custom competition reality show? A show done in the same lines as Face off/Project Runway/etc, but the focus is making custom action figures, vehicles, playsets, and dolls. Each week the contestants make a custom from a different theme and/or toyline. Each week a contestant is sent home until there is a winner. The winner could win supplies, and maybe a job, or a consulting position with a sponsoring toy company.
Would you watch this? Do you think this would be a good way to market a certain toy company? What do you think?

YES! I already like Face-off, why wouldn't I like this show as well? It features both artisans and toys! If only the TV didn't break down a month ago, then I would watch it when it airs.

That would be interesting; especially when, at the zero hour, we would get to see people pull their hair out when they discover joint rub on their masterpiece.

I would definitely watch it.
However the logistics behind producing it could be nightmarish. Reality shows are produced on the cheap and done quickly. The turnaround time to complete a custom varies on several factors. paint drying time, casting time, molds, and who knows what else. It could be funny to watch a group of customizers go into a toy store and have no fodder to pick up. Then you have possible copyright/trademark issues, I don't know if you would have to get permission from Hasbro, Mattel, Playmates etc. I also don't know how those companies would feel seeing their product dismembered and put back together in a different manner either. You could conceivably do vehicles, different scales, robots that transform another week, theme weeks like Star Wars week. You could also do original creations. You could get the four horsemen to be judges. The other factor is if it has a broad enough appeal. The syfy channel audience would be your best bet.

It would be fake like all the rest of those shows ..
If it was normal people it might be cool BUT that would never happen it would be professionals from the toy companies with no personalities oh yeah sure they would get one guy with funny hair and tats, one who's a dick, and of course a hot girl. but stereotypes are not interesting |
