Did even more Price fixes!
  • Break-even for Toy Design jumped from 10 to 40 units.
  • Break-even for Toy Mold Creation jumped from 10 to 14 units.
  • Changed self design hourly pay from 20€/hr to 14€/hr :(
  • Recalculated every price, weight, time of all Molds and Toys in every Size separately instead of using average values.

-> Mainly decreased selling cost for larger sizes.

New upcoming designs!

We tested new Ice Forms designs, and they work too well...
so stay tuned for some ice with your Cock'n'Tails!

Suction cups were fully developed to fit every toy specifically, now everything sucks! ...In a good way :3

Some of you probably already saw but also brought back custom Wolf Paws!

UI and other fancy stuff!

Thanks to great work from Givanz (Developer of Open Source vvveb CMS), I am on my final steps to finish my own online shop! Some UI tweaks for mobile and PC are still in order and some fancy CSS changes are upcoming too!

Did turntables for all toys available for now, you can view them on https://spicerack.market/luneythecat/ now :P

Working on a lot of banners, YouTube channel, as well as looking for some streaming website to occasionally stream the 3D design process or whole process from idea to reality!

and I'm about to be an official company WOHOO!

]]> Prices should be fair! http://shop.luney-the-cat.de/prices-should-be-fair Mon, 15 Jun 2026 09:43:41 +0000 "It is unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money—that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do."
— John Ruskin

That idea sits at the heart of how I run Luney the Cat. I have always believed transparency should be more than a buzzword, so I am publishing the full LibreCalc spreadsheet that powers our pricing. No hidden formulas, no mystery markup—just open numbers that anyone can inspect, question, and improve.

The workbook breaks down every building block of what you pay for:

  • Material costs
  • Time to make each piece
  • Maintenance and upkeep costs
  • Overall cost structure
  • Profit margins
  • Sizes, weights, and production times for toys and models
  • Final selling prices in €

If you spot a better way to calculate something—or think a cost is missing—open an issue right on the GitHub page. Fair pricing works best when it is a conversation, not a dictate.

Quick summary for the spreadsheet-averse: our prices reflect real material use, honest labor time, actual maintenance overhead, and a modest margin that keeps the lights on and the printers running.
