Happy for everyone that is getting their dream theme here.

I won't have any skin in the game, but I do like the Pro cabinet art while others seem to hate it. I am disappointed in the recycled artwork and images but I'm sure there were licensing issues. I wish Stern would take more time on original artwork for all their pins. IM, TMNT, JP, and AIQ were all great. Pins like The Beatles and LZ seem like they are stepping backwards.

Is that a couple of dents in the front of the blimp?

72 hours? Why not just punch me in the crotch?

I've never looked into getting anything licensed, but I'm sure it's not fun.

My question is, why pursue a license from a licensee that puts heavy limitations on what you are trying to create? I can understand protecting the license, but to just accept a folder of clip art and not have any wiggle room for your own creativity must leave you feeling deflated. For me, having limits like this would take away any excitement before I even got started, especially if you are a huge fan of said license.

Also, this is Stern, who has a proven track record, who has proven they can do amazing things when given room to. They can do artwork.

Is it solely because of money? It can't be. Never mind, it is.

Sort of like a Woodstock or Festival pin? That would be sweet. Multiple licenses, but if you could get bands that like each other and that are all open to equal representation on the pin that would be super fun. Difficult ask though.
