Although this conversation has happened on several occasions since I re-entered this hobby about 2 years ago I'm always glad to see it restarted. That means that several of us hold out hope that a big resurgence in EF can happen.

I agree that "game ready" bases should be a part of someone's purchase but we are a ways away from that. How about a joint effort between the MFCA and a company like Miggle, especially since that relationship already exist. To piggy back on what CorEy said, how about an insert on how to tweak bases with each Miggle game board sold along with info on the MFCA's website and a copy of the Tweak.

How about working with Miggle in getting the entry level Rose Bowl game in hobby shops around the country. We may not expect them to be placed in the Hobby Lobby's of the world but a place like Riders Hobby Shop may be receptive. My guess is that initially would be MUCH easier than the Landsman's trying to get into most toy stores like Toys R Us.

How about leagues around the country working with local hobby stores in setting up EF displays (boards, teams, perhaps one of Reggie's stadiums) along with copies of the Tweak for sale (or free) and a stack of fliers with info on both that league and the MFCA.

These are just a few thoughts off the top of my head. I'm sure a serious discussion would help prompt more feasible ideas.

Your thoughts?
