No props needed. I’m just glad an idea could enhance one of the cards I remember at the time thinking what a simple but great idea it was. It made total sense given Albano's history. Thanks for the idea!

For the record, I think Todd had the right idea. Whenever you can do a guy in their LJN figure gear, you should. Muraco should have been in the red trunks. I could run the crap out of a LJN action figure based fed with this game. Look at how many Wrestling Superstars by LJN there are in Filsinger Games now!
Talk about the Bees Killer Dropkick: the tag version was a double whip into the ropes, drop down by Blair, and Brunzell would dropkick the guy out of the air (when timed right). Conversely, the Bee Sting was a drop-down by Brunzell and the flying butt move by Blair.

I am certainly not above cheap pops my friend! And I'm a very symmetrical person, so bookends are a must! Glad you're along for the ride sir, so happy to have you!

Love the podcast, btw, especially the detailed insights into the design process. It's always great to hear different creative approaches to similar tasks and having the background of each you guys and how your different influences manifest themselves in the card design per character.

I listened to the podcast today while rolling out and posting my latest COTG results.
I really enjoyed this episode.
I completely get not doing a more revamped Hillbilly Jim card due to his limited moveset.
I get it. I was going to post a bootleg I have been working on of a big name Indy wrestler on Friday for Christmas. But then I found out this wrestler is now actually a serious possibility for a 2021 release. I was told I could still release the bootleg and tweak it for this wrestler's possible future official release but I just think I really captured most of this wrestler's offense and it would be hard to tweak it too much so I am not releasing this bootleg now (but I can in the future if it turns out an official card is still not a possibility.) I personally would prefer this name get an official release (he is on my top 5 most wanted Indy cards list) so I am glad to hold off for now on not releasing a bootleg when instead we might be able to get a similar official card.
I was also surprised but happy to hear Chad's shoutout to me for being in the Moderna Phase III volunteer trials for their COVID-19 vaccine. I was thankful I got to participate in the study. I had also earlier applied for the Pfizer vaccine study- they did not respond to me, but Moderna did get back to me and I have been an active volunteer for their vaccine since late August.

Vegas, I say this with all seriousness, anyone who helped test the vaccine is worthy of thanks and praise! I appreciate you, my friend!
