I think Wizkids would be better served if they put out smaller creator-specific Indy sets. Like 10 characters (all uniques) with a map. If you put out a set of 10 pieces for Mage, Grendel, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or most other Indy books, I'd buy them. I'd bet a whole bunch of other people would too! I'm looking for something along the lines of the Mage Knight Seige packs or the Dungeon packs. I'm sure they'd make more money putting out a new 100 piece set but at least they wouldn't have to worry about their current licencing issues. They could easily get away with selling these packs for 25-30 bucks.
Catering to the lowest common denominator since Feb 2003.
Not to hijack the thread, but a megacity 1 map with (or without) some futurisitc looking objects (maybe even a judge's bike) and some more 2000AD characters would be purchased without hesitation by yours truly.
You know, I disliked Indy quite a bit when it first came out, but the more I've been using figures from this set on my teams, the more I've realized that it was actually a really good set....even if I didn't recognize many of the characters.
I look forward to another set now.

The move to Open tourneys has no doubt helped a lot of people's feelings on these figures. I've been hearing this a lot since smaller pieces here and there have been able to find their way onto teams.
No doubt. I just played some of my EuroIndy figs in a tourney and really liked them. My opponent was only playing Savage Hulk and Farting Hulk as his 300 pt. team, so I obviously targeted figs titled "Hulk".
