    That looks really good. Even the tank and satellite are much better than Shockblast.

    Dude! That is freakin amazing! The paint aps are fantastic, and the mod on his lazer hand thing works really well. Nice use of repro labels too.


    Would you at all be interesting in doing one like that for me? That's something Id' be interested in.
