Frederic, yea sorry i wasn't aware of all the facts !. I can't see why greenpeace have a problem, there are enough galaxies around. Galaxy collection is still an issue i am sure, i read some of those species currently living in some of those galaxies don't want to leave, even for the sake of chess. Please post once FOBG version is released, i read somewhere the cost was going to be like $350,000,000,000,000,000.00 per set. Can't wait to buy mine, will you take a check. Dan Kiski.
