  Oh the comics code used to try and stop comic companies from using
the world flick because of the notorious bad printing back in the
day,they were concerned that those two letters would run together.
they also frowned on the name Clint which Roy Thomas managed to sneak
past them in a mid-sixties Marvel. Just thought you might like to

Hey everybody.

I’m assuming you have seen the Trading Cards on Hunter’s site (done by Greg P and Neil – and others too: please insert name here).

If one of these sets were to be chosen by Rittenhouse to be released – WHICH one should it be?  What would you be prepared to pay for it?

I am not just asking this question to formulate discussion.

Michael

That’s fine Steve you gave a response and it is genuine.

I sure don’t know if they’d even consider it for $10-$12….remember the HESTON set cost $20 - $25 for 9 cards?  Maybe it was that thick card stock etc and yes, these cards HAVE been prepared/all the work has been done.

I agree Beneath is probably the best to release next, followed by the others…IF it sells….

Thats a very difficult question, as I'm sure everyone has their
own "favorite" amongst the POTA offerings. Personally, I'd like to see
them release each sequel set, in order for $10 - $12 a set. Then, after
Battle was released, I'd like a 2-pack set of the 2nd and 3rd TV series
sets. I know that probably wasn't quite the answer you were looking for
but, as a die hard ape fan I can't narrow it down any further. Of
course, you're talking to the guy who is still uploading chapters of
Marvel's "Terror" series so I can put it all on one disc. :)

This is a great question fellas – I actually seem to recall asking this myself and it is also very relevant to the comics.

While we are waiting for the group comic to get organised, Neil has started with a concept we were discussing – a POTA Down Under.

I was going to do a different CONQUEST….one set in the FUTURE that does not refer to a government that DOES NOT EXIST etc, and the more I look at this new environment Neil has created, the more I am thinking I might just combine this with the Aussie setting.

Just gotta convince Neil to abandon the strip format…..wish me luck!

I'd like to see a story set in the classic APES environment but not

a huge chunk of time, post Battle and Pre Planet that could be

I'm tempted to suggest explore other parts of the planet too - but

coordinate can be the same -- the X,Y,Z, and T all go together to
describe an object in SpaceTime.

It does.  And that’s precisely the seller for me.

Nobody can say precisely what the film-makers intended.  If they could, I might be sold, but other than a comment from Dehn about “It’s all a big circle” (which could mean ANYTHING), none of the key players have commented.

It does seem that there is a mixture of intentions there and they CLASH.

I haven't time for Patrick's pseudoscientific gobbledygook.  It's like all the technobabble on Star Trek -- fun to listen to, but basically bullshit.  Oh, it's all based on sound theory, but not possible.  POTA depends on suspension of disbelief.  My suspension only goes so far.  Anyway, a "causality loop" is a nice idea, but I reject it for the film series.  I go with the alternate timeline scenario.  Can the future be changed?  I vote YES!

If the future can't be changed, and the world of POTA is doomed to always end in nuclear holocaust, then what's the point of it all?  The "causality loop" universe of Patrick and others throws the whole of POTA into an abyss of meaninglessness.

Not sure Neil but $25 would be about right I think.  That way the “borderline” fans might join in on the affordability.

-- Of course I would want all of them were released starting with the
Beneath set. But that won't happen and as a one off set that would
narrow it down to Greg's 2nd series TV cards or the Return ones and it
would make most sense then to release the live TV show cards in my
opinion.

As for how much I would be willing to pay I really couldn't say. How
much does an average card set cost?

They have.  Maybe a standard pack set without specials, but $25 is fair.  Actually, I really don’t believe they WOULD do it for as LITTLE as $25, but we shall see.

I think some people have already done this, but what I would like to see is a good print up of these on a fair card stock (not like the 9 card set – that was a VERY high stock) and the wrapper (just one per set).  I think price comes down as print quantity goes up so it would be important to pick one that WOULD sell and then set about pre-selling it.

Wow, I remember going to a local flea market and picking up a bunch of
comics and trading cards by the box, thenm sitting down and breaking
them into sets. Ahhh, the good old days.
Would it be feasible to print them onto card stock and into sets just
for us collectors/fans? Maybe downloading the sets to disc and see if a
printer could put them on cardstock?

Well Tim, off the top of my head we have seen a few covers Neil designed for POTA and the 4 sequels and we have had a couple of comments about those.  Tim, get yourself up to speed on these and let us know your thoughts.  Neil had intended to draw these tightly (and colour them?) but Rory “Photoshopped” a cover for PLANET from these and it looks great (I think – whaddayoureckon?)

Revolution #2 is out and we have had like one comment.....and that was MINE!  Well, maybe there was a second comment?  Tim, what do you think about it?

Lastly I have followed up with the boss of Rittenhouse on his comments that he would like to see sets made from Greg P’s cards.  Greg and I have known about this for some time – Greg sent him high res copies almost a year ago – but since it was all pending sales on the $99 set (which did NOT sell well), I wanted to leave it as long as possible to contact Steve again.  Well, someone stirred up the hornet’s nest a couple of weeks back so I asked again and (while it will be a hard task) there IS a chance of getting a set out.  So now we are trying to decide which would pre-sell about 500 sets and how much people would pay.

Any thoughts would be extremely welcome.

Michael
