I do think that toasterboy's post was a shot at the FG staff. I would like to apologize if my Bryan Danielson joke came across to anyone as a shot against Filsinger Games or the company's amazing staff. It was not the intention. It was, as was hopefully indicated by the addition of a winky emoticon, a joke. To me, the multiple Bryan Danielson cards has become a running gag like Bounty Hunter being Killing Machine or Guardsman having a 'bite' move on his card. Apparently, I was wrong. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Filsinger Games, Tom and the product that is put out. Again, it was a joke and I'm sorry that anybody took it as anything else.

My point is more that a FG employee would take a shot at one of the promotions that they work with based on a personal issue with an individual board member. Had any other board member made the same Bryan Danielson joke a few pages ago, it would have just been a funny joke... which is all it really was any way. But since it was Grant, blackhockeymaskiller(?) gets all up in arms and takes a shot at one of the promotions that was awesome enough to work with FG. Not cool. You're missing the whole point..... Someone takes passive aggressive shots at FG constantly but it's a ok. Then someone calls them out on it and JOKES (like the other was a joke right?) about their fed and it's not ok. Only his joke was true, Danielson does have more cards than CWFH has sets. This is dripping with hypocrisy. I personally thought the Bryan Danielson jokes were funny and nothing more. Obviously I am in the minority. If toasterboy is such a menace to the Filsinger Games community, ban him from the official boards. That's all that needs to happen. Most people don't have a clue what the beef is between he and FG or he and the artist formerly known as Swarm. And most probably don't care. So, let it die and move on. He's no longer involved with FG in any official capacity. You say "their fed" like Grant owns CWFH. Maybe I am wrong but I have never gotten the impression that CWFH was owned in any way by anyone other than David Marquez. So, an FG employee taking a shot at a promotion that has agreed to work with FG is super unprofessional and, as Thomas (TK) points out, could push current fans away from the game. On top of that, why should FG NEED Grant in order to produce another CWFH set? Wouldn't their agreement be with Marquez? Maybe I just have no clue... And I'm not missing the point at all. In fact, you are. The point is that company employees should rise above snarky, personal beefs with board members. Imagine if every time someone commented on WWE's product on a message board, Triple H got on and lowered himself and the company to the level of the original commenter. But, I will agree with Thomas (TK) again and say, let's all move on now. I'm sure the new ROH sets are going to be awesome. Moose is an awesome start, with awesome artwork by Werner.

I personally was very put off by this whole situation. I'm not sure what the issue is between the party's but airing it publicly in a forum frequented by your customers is very unprofessional. While I love Filsinger Games and their products. The recent posts by "blackhockeymaskkiller" have put a bad taste in my mouth.

As a loyal FG customer as far as another Bryan Danielson card enough is enough, new first time wrestlers please. Many guys are deserving of a first card before making the 44th card of ANY one guy. Just my opinion repeat cards are the one thing that turns me off when buying online sets.

I knew it was a joke. I think I've even made that joke before. But really, more CWFH!

It really will be up to Grant. Hopefully it happens.

Hey guys, this discussion got way off track. I could moderate and cut out all the back and forth, but I will let it go for now, unless it continues to go down the wrong path. Yes, Bryan Danielson has 4 cards, but they were very different and represented different periods of his career (plus I personally consider B/W and color as completely different things, so really 2 cards in each line). Heck Mayhem had 4 cards with all the same stats and no one complained about that! As for CWFH, there does exist an option to do another set and it is possible with or without Grant, as Dave Marquez is a great partner to work with. Ideally we would have preferred to continue to work with Grant on it, but he has decided not to work with FG on an official capacity any further. I respect his decision, and if he changes his mind that would certainly make doing another CWFH set more likely to come out sooner. At this point we have a ton of sets in the works on the Indy side of the business (along with a few Legends and COTG), so there is plenty of stuff people will have fun with. Lets cut off the discussion on CWFH and stick to ROH. There are 12 cards coming out this summer! Thats pretty huge. OK? Cool.

So, one thing I am curious about. The news post says we are getting 2 sets entitled Celebration of Honor. Is it just going to be called Celebration of Honor 1 and Celebration of Honor 2? Why not include them all in one 12 card set? Certainly not knocking the decision. Just curious if there was some reason behind it that maybe can't be seen until all cards are revealed or something. Like maybe one 6-card set is all new faces to the game and one is 6 updates?

Who is in your want list? I would still really like to see an updated Young Bucks. If we could get other members of the Bullet Club (Anderson, Gallows), that would be...what are the kids saying? Too Sweet! I think it's been unofficially confirmed that we will be getting Matt Taven and Michael Bennett updates, which are just fine by me. in addition, I'd love, love, love to get Adam Page and Dalton Castle. Anything else would just be a bonus. Can I preorder now? EDIT: D'oh! How could I forget Chris Sabin?
