    Spooky should contract CGC to make a large run of Rick & Morty

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    They have been clear at least 30times over, R&M is only 750.
    This is a new game and a Ben Heck design.

    Ok

    I don’t even want it, Just saying, they should, if they want to sell more games without taking on risk

    Bet they go that route a time or two, in fact maybe that’s why the three are involved in this

    Why the thumbs down on my post?

    It really looks like this is exactly what is happening. CGC building Spooky games since they can’t (in substantial numbers). Sure, I could be wrong. I get it, am I wrong?

    I think yall got hung up on the R&M part since you like owning a rare game? For real, you guys can have it. Same for Lebowski & Aliens. I am not crying for a VE on much other than RBION just so I can have that GFE with a new box

    R&M was an example of a Spooky game made in low numbers due to an inability to produce high numbers & how contracting with CGC unlocks millions for Spooky & it would be wise to do so.

    By contracting the build out to CGC it will be easy to commit to higher build numbers on games without as much risk.

    Are they really subcontracting out production on the next title just to make very few games?

    Maybe, but that seems weird. This really seems like a strategy to scale up. Almost like what CGC did with Stern. Would be an odd idea, teaming up to do less.

    Quoted from FYMF:

    I like your reply but not as much as I like discovering how internet downvotes affect you.
    I'm going go with this take-a-way. If I or anyone else downvotes you then you will give an awesome response.

    Lol, I am way too high to figure that algebra out right now.

    I legit want to know. Is Spooky scaling up via CGC?

    If so... they got something good I bet

    Right

    CGC will manufacture so Spooky can avoid losing $5M in unrealized sales like with R&M?

    That's smart.

    Buckle up Stern lol

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    I am not sure if it just your wording or you dont get it?
    Nobody lost money with unrealized sales on R&M
    This is about new collaborations and team work moving forward.
    You are correct that Stern has surely taken notice (they did before with their Dankberg moves to grab licences from Spooky)

    I get it

    So does Spooky

    That's why CGC is a partner

    Captured sales = money

    Unrealized sales = no money

    I’ve been hoping for a Buckaroo Banzai, Howard the Duck or Fall Guy

    Where’s O-Din, he loves old themes

    Rumor is there's a R&M VE that uses PROC boards in the works

    Heard it's only available outside of Madison Wisconsin

    What are the odds?
