Cuz I know some people here were working on animations of the faces and whatnot. Cobra Commander sure can transform into other versions pretty quickly! And it's nice to see everyone is afraid of Snake Eyes. (note sarcasm)

That was enjoyable and funny in a good way. I was wondering the same thing as there was PTE Blackhawk in the first half

Its abundance here really ups the fun ante, to say nothing of how much time it saved them. Those facial animations are quite impressive. I suspect they're using a pretty sophisticated program to create 'em. I recently did my first foray into that realm using just photoshop: http://www.joedios.com/dioramas/sho...2496&original=1 The sets are great! They got a lot of mileage out of that doorstop __________________ chris my youtube
