There actually is a Judy "DynaGirl" Strangis autograph in the Twilight Zone set. She was in the episode "The Bard" with Burt Reynolds and she was about 14 at the time (and as pictured on the card). True, she's not in her Krofft costume, but it's the next best thing.

A VERY expensive set I would kill for is

BUFFY/ANGEL LOVE CONNECTIONS
The 9 card puzzle could have the pictures of the main casts from buffy/angel with lines to the ones they were in love with..

The autographs would be titled "LOVE TRIANGLE" and all be triple autos including

Buffy/Angel/Darla
Buffy/Angel/Cordi
Angel/Buffy/Spike
Buffy/Spike/Dru
Oz/Willow/Tara
Tara/Willow/Kennedy
xander/cordi/angel

ones that are not really triangles but one time flings
Jenny/Giles/Joyce
xander/faith/principle wood

And even Quad autos
Willow -Tara/Oz/Kennedy
Angel -Darla/Buffy/Cordi

I know this idea would have tanked in the past -- reference the Outer Limits Sex &... set, but now that there are so many celeb auto's being thrown into non-traditional products, maybe it's time for a

Masters of Horror set.

Imagine... it comes with gum, so it could be recalled at any time due to melamine or bad flour or milk, and if not opened quickly enough the gum could stick to an auto card and pull a big chunk of the ink off. True horror... --Chris

Alien 30th Anniversary.

Sets have already been done on Alien, Alien3 and Alien Legacy. Surprisingly Aliens, which was arguably the best one, did not produce any cards. Alien was done in 1979 and is what you'd expect from that period. Alien3 is just an ugly looking set released in 1992. Legacy from 1998 has good photography, but limited inserts of no real value.

I'd like to see a new set that covers all four movies with autograph cards from the major cast members, pieceworks and sketch cards. Both AVP movies generated card sets that were better than the films. Why not make a set using today's standards that would be worthy of the original series? Drool

Since I've just started in this hobby, I had a look around at what I might collect, and was surprised that I couldn't find anything on 'The Princess Bride' It's one of my all time favourite movies' Luv You.
Does anybody know if they made a set?
If not I think they could make a great looking set these days, especially with the aniversary of it now Thumb Up.

View Askewinverse (Clerks, Clerks Cartoon, Clerks II, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogman, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back) would be very cool.

I'd also say public reception be damned and "finish" off TV shows that were started and never continued. I'm looking right at YOU SOPRANOS!

In the same vein, a Godfather Saga would be nice, cut sigs of Brando, Puzzo, Cazale (Fredo), and others along with Pacino, DeNiro, Garcia, Keaton, Duvall, Caan, etc as major signers.

For kid oriented properties, I think Disney would be wise to put out a full scope Jim Henson's Muppets series, running the whole gamut of Muppet properties, from Sam & Friends (Henson's local DC area puppet show in the late 50s, featuring the first appearance of a character named "Kermit") to the most recent Muppet project.

A neat signature set that would provide would be duals (or more depending on the character) of various puppeteers of the characters.

An example would be Kermit The Frog, where you have a Henson cut signature and a signature of Kermit's current puppeteer, Steve Whitmire.

As long as we are being "completists" how about someone take the design of Topps non-sports cards of the mid-80s and just crank out a Superman IV The Quest For Peace bare bones set just to "complete" the original run of Reeves/Kidder/Hackman Supes movies.

Granted the movie sucked as bad as any heavy handed, self-indulgent piece of turd could, but still not having it leaves quite a hole in Superman collectibles between III and Superman Returns.

Also, speaking of DC, some nice small bare bone sets, or a set, could be produced for the recent run of Animated Direct to DVD releases, Superman Doomsday, Justice League New Frontier, and Batman Gotham Knight.
