I think the videos are cool to watch as well, but the thing I hate about them is the delay it causes releases. WWG needs cash to keep in business, but holds back releases until the movie can be completed. If you released the set without the movie, just with the preview images, you could promote it and get sales while working on the movie, and when the movie is complete, promote the set a second time, getting another wave of interest.

I would gladly not have the cool movies if it meant getting sets in my hands faster.

Another supporting point to this argue is one using Wizkids as an example. Horrorclix is selling well, not the best seller on the planet, but it is doing well. There have been four collectors sets so far, the starter set, and three ranges of booster packs. After the product is released and in stores, there is always at least a two week gap before the gallery of miniatures is posted online. It always bugs me, but it doesn't stop me spending. And if you look at their you will notice that they haven't bothered to update that since the release of the game.

Flashy websites are all well and good, but it's the product, the list of product contents, along with photos in some form, that makes the sale.

I never watched the films until well after I bought the product.


My comment was purely about the coolness factor, and how its style ranks up their with what i've seen on "Robot Chicken does Star Wars" and others. The first product I bought, "Mayhem Armory", sold me on WWG and thats all the promo I needed. Would be cool to see a stop motion done in your movie promo style. I especially liked the Shadowcore "Satellite photo" intro, and that blue light scanning the ship. Nice work!
