Default Re: Some licensed properties I would like to see SJG get for GURPS (but they won't)

PB:GURPS Panda-monium (anyone else remember that cartoon?)
PB:GURPS Cyborg Commando

Okay, but seriously:
PB:GURPS Necromunda
PB:GURPS Homeworld
PB:GURPS Doctor Who
PB:GURPS Syndicate and/or PB:GURPS Chaos Overlords (anyone remember those games?)
PB:GURPS Starflight or PB:GURPS Star Control
(Okay, yeah, I'm old)

As for just sourcebooks:
GURPS Anime (how to do everything from Sailor Moon through Trigun through Ghost in the Shell through Gundam [but carefully avoiding Excell Saga and/or Puni Puni Poemy])
GURPS Unreality (a book on how to run games where the world doesn't stay the same in major ways)

Books I would not want to see:
PB:GURPS Power Rangers
PB:GURPS The Lost Boys
PB:GURPS DoA (My character's do not need a "jiggle" attribute)
PB:GURPS Mario and Luigi
PB:GURPS SCTV, PB:GURPS SNL or anything else like that.

This one might be cool:

GURPS:Global Frequency
Based on the comic book and un-aired TV Pilot of the same name.

The TV pilot starred Michelle Forbes...before she was a sociopathic Colonial Warrior Admiral.

I know there have been discussions previously on one of these (not in this specific thread) but:
GURPS: Malazan : I love this series and am curious about what developments are taking place with Erikson making it into an RPG world again.
GURPS: Starship Troopers (Origional Book Version) : I know that Heinlein was already mentioned, but this book is seperate (as far as I know) from the rest of his stuff and is full of potential gaming.
GURPS: Oryx and Crake : This is a more recent book by Margret Atwood...could be an interesting setting for a Post-Apocalypse game.

Erg... would you hit me if I said that I recently ran a "bopping through videogame worlds" campaign, and Mario was the world we visited longest?

(Interestingly, the main villains turned out to be Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Clyde...)

Ahhh, childhood memories, excuse me while I disappear to a happy place.

OK, I'm back.

Definately, this would be nice just to see an Orb stated out, not to mention some of those inventions of Prof. Wickwire.

One other book I would love to see would be GURPS:The Race. Dealing with the lizard invaders from the Harry Turtledove World War and Colonization series and give more detailed info on some of their ships and other tech.

-GURPS Black Ops II: X-COM (With the players controlling both base operations and op teams on missions.)
-GURPS System Shock (With game notes for both computer games, and a general guide to sci-fi horror)
-GURPS Ghost in the Shell (Crunchy bits would just be character-design and equipment, heavy on the source material.)
-GURPS Wing Commander (With the Random Mission Generation System, assembling a complete mission from stock objectives and adversaries. Heck, this should go into X-COM, too.)

Not really a license:
GURPS WWI (Complete with the Trench Warfare Combat System, which abstracts the process of sitting in a trench getting shelled for a day into what happens to the PCs and their buddies.)
