To address a few things I've seen mentioned...
*The two "new features" Tom mentioned - I know what one of things he's talking about, and I think it is a pretty neat development. Not sure what the other thing is.
*The dreaded poll for the roster spot - If you listened to the podcast with Tom, Wiggy, and Tim, you'll hear that we couldn't agree on a roster spot, so I suggested a poll. Thought folks liked those, but I'll remember that for the future.
*Jake Milliman's card - All the stats for Gilbert, PN News, and Jake are done. Just waiting to see who wins the poll. Not to worry, MT, I'm not fixing the poll. I didn't even vote for him! When I signed him this summer, I figured he'd end up in a PDF set. He was a champion in some Wisconsin indies in the 90s, so I don't think he should be the worst LOW card ever. Don't worry, he won't be good either. I watched him wrestle live this summer, and recorded the match with my phone, so I'm using a lot of that for the basis of his card.
*PDF sets - Not sure why one hasn't been done lately. I thought they got shelved due to all the indy sets that have been released. Maybe another one will come out after the first of the year. I could see the two people who don't make the cut from the poll making that set.
Let me know if there's any questions I missed, thanks!

Chad protests too much! That means I AM RIGHT: he DID use both subliminals AND perhaps a little voodoo to influence lesser minds!
You missed the main question: Is Heidenreich going to be in LOD face paint on the card art of not?

Would he have an anal rape mechanism?

Only if Michael Cole gets a card. He's a monogamous rapist after all.

People are changing their votes now. I see the total for PN News dropped and went to the Milkman.

Shawn Daivari, Bull Pain, and Jonnie Stewart from the last PDF voting. I know there are more, but someone else will have to fill in the blanks.

A prime 2 Cold Scorpio card will be a welcome addition for me. Not only is he one of the most under appreciated stars of the 90s, the guy had awesome entrance music in WCW AND WWF. I've got to be honest and say the art is a little surprising to me. It's very good, but it looks less photo realistic than the stuff I'm used to seeing from Steve Stanley. To me it's very evocative of 80s comic book art (not at all a knock, just an observation from a fan of 80s comics).

It will be good to have a LOW card for Scorpio. He was a good bet for the first announcement as whenever there is a name that is known to be signed, got a previous card like Scorpio, lost in a poll, etc., that is the name that is released first.

Looks like this is what he was given to work with for reference: pwa.wrestlingx.net/wrestlerimages/2_cold_scorpio.jpgSeems like the low resolution of the source photo and the awkward shadows around the head may have thrown him off a bit. You, and anyone who has ever tried to work from bad reference, know how that goes. EDIT: Furthermore, I'm going to assume the Legends crew gave his finisher the proper and deserved title of "The Diss That Don't Miss" instead of something lame like "450 splash". Right? RIGHT?
