In addition to the Hoka and Beth's pink elephant, perhaps we could have a few
more creatures: Killer kangaroos the inevitable Giant SS Penguin and perhaps a
Combat Wombat?

Don't say killer kangaroos. For a game called "Critter Commandos" I made a 4
man combat team of kangaroos. The base figures were "GW like" oversized 25mm
sci fiers and had kangaroo head, feet and tail added. My favorite is the one
that has a bite out of one ear and smoking a cigarette.

Nope, never saw Tank-Girl.  I'm just an anime and weird SF/Fantasy
player.

You know, there's a *really* bad filksong in there somewhere.

I know Nic was talking about producing a wombot (killer wombat android as far
as I recall), but I don't know how far along he got with that.

Holy crap, someone got it! I usually get blank stares. All right John, ten
