[It shouldn't cost too much to make some posters as far as the letters go, though making a suitably-sized Ur-Quan image could be costly.

There's only one improvement I can think of: YOU MUST HAVE FWIFFO!

And, sadly, I can't attend. I'm not leaving Dallas, GA for an American football game, as I have too little interest in the sport(not to mention the high cost of plane tickets).

Yeah, the whole travel/accomodations/tickets thing gets abit pricey.   Tongue

Writing letters to TV shows and stations is always a good idea... Cheesy

Show up on the sidewalk outside activision headquarters with signs saying, "Build the new Star Control"?

That's a good idea; really get their attention.  The trick is to attract enough people to come to Activision HQ, and rally.

It's bound to make the news sooner or later...  But for now, we have to keep writing those letters, and if someone had time to make more fan art, that would be awesome Cheesy

Has anyone heard whether or not TFB would be interested in making Ur-Quan or Dnyarri plush toys like the ones on thinkgeek.com?  I think high volume sales for related art (which TFB own the content rights for) would raise some attention.

ThinkGeek has Ur-Quan or Dnyarri plushies? Or are you saying that they SHOULD make said plushies?

Speaking of plushies, I should follow up on my plan to take over the world with Fwiffo plushies, as well as headcrab plushies, Rabite plushies, and other things. There are only a few problems:

-No one really knows for sure what the lower half of a Spathi's body is supposed to look like.
-I've never made a plushie before, but I could learn.

He's just implying that maybe someone could ask TFB if they want to release some SC merchandise such as a plush toy...

In that case, I support this idea 100%. Why haven't they made SC merchandise already? (There's a few examples like the Kohr-Ah shirt, but not nearly enough.)

(Besides, we all want Fwiffo plushies! Right?)

_Should_ Heck, they've got plushies of other uniquely geeky things, and they cover software developers' desks everywhere.
