On Monday, 06 August 2007, at 10:59pm, Ryan Sohmer posted a video link in his blogs on the main pages of Looking For Group and its sister comic, Least I Could Do. The video, entitled "Slaughter Your World," features Richard, voiced by Dave B. Mitchell, singing a parodied version of the song "Part of Your World" from Disney's The Little Mermaid. The video shows Richard murdering an entire village. It is revealed at the end and in the blog that the latest (and longest) Looking For Group video is actually a trailer for "a full 75-90 minute feature film." The film, currently under the working title of "Looking For Group: The Movie" has "a target release of late 2008." However as of February 2009, the movie has yet to be released and little information is available. On March 2nd of 2008, Sohmer announced that they might be coming out with a video game.
The video was the most watched one in YouTube for many days after its initial release and has altogether been watched over three million times. Within days, the video had become so popular that fans made numerous requests to be able to purchase the song. On August 19th, it was announced on the LFG Forum that an mp3 download version of Slaughter Your World would be available for a small fee.
A second teaser trailer called LFG: This is War was recently let out, it features Richard and Cale in a battle. Cale tries to save some innocents and kills an attacking troll, while Richard kills the innocents and reveals that he started the war and fights for neither side.
A limited edition collectible figurine of Richard was released for sale on November 15, 2007. The figurine was limited to 500 pre-orders, and sold out within 24 hours. The webmaster described the event as "--an eventful full day filled of near server explosions."
