    "neato" means "send this custom to SQ7 upon completion"

    :) 

    "neato" is simply a slang term derived from the word "neat". I actually misspelled it, as it should be "neat-o".

    I really want to see "Anime Screen Accurate Armada/Superlink Tidalwave" and by that I mean for you do to it and shoot a gallery, but also send it to me for my birthday.

    As for the others posting with the same request, they aren't the droids you're looking for.

    the primus-had is a lot SMALLER than tidal waves!

    the parts of primus are sold (legs and arms, exept all torsoparts and head)

    he head could be used fot a thin i'm watching for!

    I love this. On another note, does anyone else think that Tidal Wave would make a great base for an Overlord custom, maybe combined with Universe Darkwing and a tank?

    Someone should try converting a Tidal Wave into Overlord. If I had painting skills or money, I'd do it myself but I'd love to see someone try it.
