Let these guys know that you want them.

The more people that inquire after them, the more chance that it will happen.
Gene and Co. have the original screens for all the side art ready to go.
They just need a heads up on what people want. They're not going to print, or look into printing, sideart decals they're not sure will sell well.
I have a reliable source that has already told Gene he should do a run of these Dr Who art sets and he was unaware of the demand for them.
So let them know you want them guys and it may happen.

Thats some real good advise !

The Bally/Williams rights holders should ask what people want, not just produce what each other has done etc !

It would be nice to get WILLIAMS to do new decals etc, but there is just not the numbers for them.

I will give u an example. I will soon have brand new reproduced decals for BLACK KNIGHT 2000 available. No one makes them as we know.
Even if i started offering copies on Ebay, how many people would buy brand new decals for BK2000 ? How many people own a BK2000 in still working condition ?

Would i sell 5 sets in Australia, 10 sets ?  Would i sell 20 sets in the USA, maybe a few dozen in Europe ? Perhaps i might sell say 50 sets total.
Is it worth it for me to reproduce a set/sets, YES cause i need a set to make my own machine MINT , but would i get a profit at 50 sets, YES definately, BUT would it be worth the time n effort for WILLIAMS, i doubt it.

BUT I COULD ALWAYS SEND A SAMPLE TO WAYNE OR GENE AND SEE WHATY THEY THINK, maybe they would do something then. I feel thats the only way new decals can be made n sold legally, as opposed to me flogging a quick 50 sets before i get a cease n desist letter.
Stay tuned. Maybe we can get some new decals out there and keep everyone happy ? there may be hope for DR Who decals yet !  ^^^

Williams could be part of it, as opposed to seeing some bloke selling 50 sets over ebay and getting them out there before they could scratch their nose. Best we work together i feel.
