    What does Michael Jordan have to do with anything?

    For those of you who might not be familiar with this cool piece of artwork, here's one of the pictures from E3 1999:

    Christy's stepson, Julian Ledger, is in the special effects business for feature films and TV. He based his creation on the Revell model - recreating each part at the new scale, in various materials. So it is about as authentic as you can get.

    I'll be rolling through Fresno/Oakhurst after GDC next week. If anyone wants to plan a raid around then (I think the Fury may be in Seattle though).

    Ahh... so [i]that's[/i] where it came from. I remember having the Texas Six-Shooter model when I was a kid. There's a genuine good idea, great fun too.
    --Although I was able to construct a much more fierce, single-shot weapon from plain Legos and a black rubber "bouncer". The sucker was able to pierce heavy cardboard with the right construction.

    Ahh... memories. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/rolleyes.gif[/img]

    That would be a scene alright! All of us lot walk right into that warehouse with those nice guns, hold them all up, and I'll drive the crate out of there with the forklift! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Those pics of the model are great! It must be work shed loads considering its one of a kind!

    What did you have in mind? And no, urine doesn't work. It clogs up the whole array after standing still for a while. Don't ask me how I know this...

    But skin-burning is better because the target is larger! In fact, it doesn't actually have to burn them, just make them tingle or itch so they think it's burning them.

    now now fellas... dont be gettin evil...

    its better to have numbers.... six guys... against one...prefferably the storeman about closing time.

    "Ok buddy, just be cool, we dont want to hurt you, we are just here for whats not rightfully yours anyways... sit down in that chair and make yourself comfy and we'll just let Mister Cable tie prevent you from getting to a phone for atleast an hour or two... we'll just walk you to the John now so you can afford to wait a few hours... we'll also call in to the Police to say where you are, as soon as we and the merchandise are safely away..."

    **the five other guys just stand there in a quiet but menacing fashion**

    and no... I've never done this before.... or have I ? **evil grin**
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    Well what about slingshots and spitball guns?

    Slingshots launch relatively heavy objects into the air, and spitball guns? The opposition always goes down.

    During a bathroom renovation, actually. I just hope no-one drank from that funny lookin Coke bottle... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] It was quite an enlightening possibility actually... try living a week without the possibility of going to the loo in the comfort of your own apartment. We just seem to take some things for granted.

    And I hope that the WILD days are only ahead... I'm only just applying now.
