In terms of Indies, which is the line I mainly play, I think Prime absolutely adds value there on its own. A nice spot for tie ins to that cycle's release or somewhere to offer other options for people who aren't so interested in that cycle's content (thinking of people who aren't really using the Impact cards or people who may not have as much interest in deathmatches). Also allows for updates to some cards we already have

I’m going to make my pitch. I want the alternate cover art for the 2135 Crimestoppers as a poster. I love it too and was thinking the same thing for a t-shirt. Werner nailed it!

"It would be neat to have some form of official storyline for a new jumping on point. 2019 and 2025 was long ago."
This is part of my long-term goals. I plan story arcs three and four years out like I did with ORIGINS. But definitely a good idea and it will happen.

"It also adds something for me when Dad can show them the original character from when he was a kid. Like the guy who shared with his kid that The Flash that he grew up with had wings on a helmet."
Lol I love classic stuff. It's amazing to watch fictional characters develop over time and how they take on characteristics of the culture for which they are a mirror.

FTR/GWFZ obviously can serve a purpose as a way to utilize some more off-the-wall character concepts, or experiment, and I'm all for more of it...but in my opinion to be viable long-term, it also has to start legitimately developing people. Yeah, a couple of GWFZ guys made the jump and so have a few FTR folks, but at some point we need some Charlotte- or Bron Breakker-style prospects to come up through the system, make it to the GWF, and (this is important) actually make an impact as top guys or at least near-the-top guys. Faller's a decent enough character but the upside needs to be higher than him.
I liked it as a product but this is what eventually sunk NXT1.0--what it was producing and what the WWE brass wanted for its main roster were fundamentally at odds. Now, I was and am totally against 2015 WWE's vision of what a wrestling star was and would have preferred a more NXT-like main roster, but the disconnect was there regardless of which "side" if any you supported. I'm not saying the politics of FTR/GWF are anywhere near that toxic but I personally would like to see FTR as something more than just a permanent side/minor league on a lower level than the CPC ever was.

Put me down as another that wants KRONOS to come back to PP.
If I'm being honest, this is the first year I did not preorder PP for the entire year, as I was more than a bit soured by last year's fiasco.
The 3 Aethran Soldiers were so.... underwhelming and felt like they were just put out for no other reason but to fill the COTG PP spot.
I saw your post about demoing the game in Hawaii and how people loved it, and you thought we should do more of that.... I have offered several times to run a table for FG at ORIGINS gaming convention here in Columbus, Ohio, only to be dismissed or ignored. I could have also demoed the game at several of our bigger gaming stores in central Ohio but again, when I asked - nothing.

Speaking of upcoming releases, I can't wait for the new GWF expansion to be released in June. I have been working with Darryl for a while and we are about halfway through the new cards. The GWF is about to embark on another dramatic new direction!
There are a lot of creative balls I am juggling right now and I look forward to sharing them with you as the year progresses.

Someone mentioned that FTR ended. When was this? I don't play it but bought the first three sets and know that a fourth set came out.

It's assumed but nothing official. Simply nothing came out last year and nothing has been said about it.
