Well, you can try to drum up materials and do it yourself. I'm pretty sure that's how the original Nu-Line X-Caliber came to life. If you want to work for one of the big manufacturers, however, I'm sure there will be some requirements. My advice would be to contact the company(s) directly to see what opening they have and what qualifications you'd need. Good luck.

They stopped designing balls years ago.  Now they just change colors and names.

That was sarcasam for those with a quick reply button.
