From the article published in March ;
"Furano is currently in the process of licensing iconic images and photos of Kiss band members from the 1970s."
IF the game does happen (Gary Stern bows to their requests), then it HAS to use the original line up's images. Anything with the cover band members will tank. Proof of this was the 2 shows at Etihad last year. Both shows, all the T-Shirts with the original members were sold out well before the show. There were boxes of T-Shirts with the cover band line up.
None of the Stern designers are KISS fans. If Borg did it, then it would be another failure anyway. I think Trudeau could be the only designer that does not dislike KISS !
