Professional Sampling &
Prototyping Services
Transform your concepts into tangible prototypes with a structured sampling workflow. Clear timelines, defined revisions, and transparent costs help you reach production-ready results faster.
Our Sampling Process
A systematic approach to bring your ideas to life with precision and efficiency — with clear inputs and deliverables.
Design Review
Technical analysis of your design requirements, target market compliance, and feasibility assessment.
You Provide: artwork/sketch, size (cm), reference photos, target market (US/EU/AU), quantity estimate
We Deliver: feasibility notes, risk flags, recommended structure/material plan
Sample Creation
Prototype development using production-grade materials and techniques (stitching, embroidery, trims, accessories).
You Provide: approval on materials/structure, logo file (if needed), Pantone reference (optional)
We Deliver: physical prototype + progress photos, preliminary spec notes, revision list
Quality Review
Comprehensive quality check and documentation before dispatch — aligned with production requirements.
You Provide: confirmation on required compliance (CPSIA/EN71/REACH etc.)
We Deliver: QC photos, workmanship notes, recommended improvements for mass production
Client Approval
Final review and feedback collection. We confirm revision scope and cost before starting the next round.
You Provide: consolidated feedback list (photos/notes), approval or revision request
We Deliver: revised sample plan (time/cost), production quotation upon approval
Sampling Deliverables
What you receive with each sample
- Physical prototype (production-grade)
- Photo set (key angles & details)
- Material list (BOM-style notes)
- Feasibility & risk notes for mass production
- Revision list + recommended optimizations
Tip: Share your target market (US/EU/AU) early — it helps us align eyes/nose, seams, and labeling requirements from the first sample.
Sampling Checklist (What to Prepare)
Send these items and we can typically respond with feasibility notes and a sampling plan within 24–48 hours.
Artwork / Reference
AI/PDF/PNG, sketch, or clear photos from multiple angles
Size & Target Market
Finished size (cm) + US/EU/AU compliance expectation
Materials / Feel
Preferred fabric type, texture, fill, and any special requirements
Quantity Estimate
Estimated order quantity (helps optimize structure & cost)

Timeline & What to Expect
Timeline starts after: (1) artwork/spec confirmed, (2) sample payment received, (3) key materials confirmed.
Design Feasibility & Material Plan
Confirm structure, compliance considerations, and material availability.
Prototype Build
Pattern making, sewing, embroidery, trims/accessories, internal checks.
QC & Dispatch
Final quality review, documentation, photos, and shipping preparation.
Express Option
5–7 business days (subject to material availability; additional charges apply).
Shipping
Sample shipping is typically billed separately based on destination and speed.
Quality Guarantee
Every sample is built to production standards — to reduce rework when you move into mass production.
Why our samples scale smoothly
- Production-grade materials and workmanship targets
- Feasibility notes to avoid structural risks
- Documented specs and material list aligned with sourcing
- Compliance awareness for your target market (labels, small parts, seams)
Revision Guidelines
Clear policies to keep development efficient and prevent surprises. We confirm revision scope and cost before starting.
Included Revisions (1 Round)
- Minor size adjustments: within ±20% (e.g., 18cm → 20cm)
- Color variations: fabric/embroidery color tweaks (Pantone reference preferred)
- Equivalent material substitutions: same grade for availability/cost optimization
- Detail refinements: embroidery density, accessory position, minor facial adjustments
Examples
Move embroidered eyes slightly • Adjust thread color • Change ribbon length • Switch to equivalent plush fabric texture
Additional Charges Apply
- Major structural changes: new body shape, pattern rebuild, opening/closure design
- Premium / special materials: organic fabrics, specialty textures, custom dyes
- 2nd round+ revisions: charged per revision after the included round
- Rush revision: expedited turnaround requirements
Examples
Change from sitting to standing • Add electronics • Rebuild head/body proportions • Add new accessories that require tooling
To prevent delays: please consolidate feedback into one document with photos and numbered notes.
Investment & Pricing
Transparent pricing designed to deliver maximum value — with a credit policy that rewards serious production projects.
Sample Fee Credit Policy
Sample fees are credited toward your production order — reducing upfront risk while ensuring sampling quality.
- 100% credit on production orders ≥ $5,000
- 50% credit on smaller production runs
- Credits apply to the production invoice for the same project/SKU
Note: We confirm any revision costs before starting additional rounds.
Simple Products
Basic plush toys, simple shapes, standard materials
Standard Products
Detailed designs, multiple materials, accessories
Complex Products
Multi-component, premium materials, electronics
What your sample fee covers

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about sampling & prototyping
What files do you need to start sampling?
AI/PDF/PNG artwork is ideal, but sketches are also acceptable. Please include target size (cm), target market (US/EU/AU), and any reference photos.
Can you create a sample from a sketch?
Yes. A clear sketch plus reference photos and size requirements is usually enough to begin. We may suggest optimizations to improve feasibility and appearance.
Do you provide a spec sheet or BOM notes?
We provide material notes and key specifications that help you move into mass production smoothly. Full tech packs can be provided for larger projects if required.
How many revisions are included?
One round of minor revisions is included. We confirm scope, timeline, and costs before starting any additional rounds.
Can you match Pantone colors?
We can match colors based on Pantone references, subject to material availability and dye lots. For best accuracy, provide Pantone codes and target fabric type.
Are sample fees refundable or credited?
Sample fees are credited toward production orders based on the policy above. Shipping is typically billed separately.
