Interesting tidbit from Letter from Gigi....

"Six of the 'Big Seven' licenses fro adventure gaming have been signed up: Conan (TSR), James Bond (Victory), Lord of the Rings (ICE), Marvel Comics (TSR), Star Trek (FASA), and now Indiana Jones (TSR). This leaves Star Wars as the only non-licensee. Do I hear six figures?"
