[QUOTE="JoshuaKadmon, post: 30702, member: 1046"] Don't get me wrong; I don't expect to see LotR or Simpsons anytime soon, unless they're what the "surprises from Stern" comment was in reference to. I'm sure FS will hold off on any more Kickstarters until they can deliver on one or both of the completed campaigns. Then, we would still have to see what develops after The Addams Family and Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure. Those two are constantly seen as the next big licenses due to their Top 10 placement, and according to recent statements at the end of ST:TNG's run, FS is "sure [we] know which one's [they're] talking about". Not to be a killjoy, but my earliest expectation for LotR or Simpsons would be late 2013 or early 2014. And that's only if FS doesn't choose one of the other majors first. AC/DC and Pirates of the Caribbean may already be up for negotiation, for all we know, and what about Terminator 2, Dracula, Jurassic Park, or Tales from the Crypt? TAF and IJ may be the next logical choices, but until some of the successful Kickstarters start generating enough revenue to leverage against new licenses, FS will probably take the path of [less] resistance on some of these big IPs. Can't say I blame them. They're truly accomplishing the impossible with TPA, as it is. Maybe they could at least bring up Data East's Star Wars licensing in the middle of Indy negotiations, right? Two birds, one stone? As another quick note, I was just informed that Stern owns the Chicago Coin license, but since Stampede and Rawhide would probably be the most noteworthy legacy tables that license could produce, I don't think FS would make Chicago Coin releases much of a priority.
