[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 5125788, member: 20741"] GF9 does some cool stuff for [I]World in Flames[/I] miniatures. They have lately added some Axis and Allies acessory coolness too. They did some exceptionally cool stuff for the [I]Pirates of the Spanish Main[/I] Contructible Game. I picked up their nautical themed vinyl map for use in PotSM (it was never for sale in retail stores) as well as 12 ceramic islands, tokens and range ruler. (PotSM was an iffy game but they had really cool miniature ships; my son, who was 9 years old at the time, loved playing with those accessories. It definitely made the game more "fun" to play). They do very cool terrain pieces. Battlefield-in-a-box stuff. You've also seen their stuff (although you may not have known they made it) at various Gencons used by game mftrs to showcase their new releases (especially oversized dioramas). I would expect that a company like GF9 would create stuff that most mainstream D&D players are unlikely to pick up, but which hardcore gamers will geek out over: cool accessories and neat stuff for use with miniatures, especially. This deal makes sense for WotC. The products that GF9 makes are products with a small enough market that WotC would never go after that small a segment of the market. Generally, GF9 makes this niche category stuff so well that it only compliments and enhances the overall brand. Perfect fit for WotC, imo. Look through their catalog [URL="http://www.gf9.com/store/index.php?cPath=50&osCsid=87471a4b5ecbdf04ab3f74a8c7f0ccef"]here.[/URL] This is, imo, very good news for the very good reason that these guys make [COLOR=DarkOrange][B][I]cool gaming stuff.[/I][/B][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
