Some of my favorite squads.

I had a craving for chrome the other day... and this is what happened

This was a marine concept I made, that after some research I found out it would cost a fortune to make these in large amounts. So I scraped the idea.

Yeah those are some really nice custom units. I use the same helmets as in the second pic for my cyborgs, but there's only 2 of them, and I must say they look pretty darn impressive in larger numbers. What did you use for heads?

I reluctantly like these a lot. The others are good but these look cool enough to steal the idea.

I don't like the marines, as for these:

I liked them, but it took me a moment to realise they weren't half-naked tribal aliens with axes. But yeah, great idea for a suit.

Just a bunch of different "grunt" heads.

Does anyone else find it just a little creepy that when you look at the reflection in the visors it would appear that J+B is doing something different in each one. Even accounting for slight changes in angle and the direction of the lighting... hmm, odd. Maybe it's just my eyes.

I was trying to find a picture from an old cartoon strip that would show to you what these guys remind me of. However, this is all I can find.

Suffice to say they remind me of the swarms of "Geeks" that the V.C. Warriors in this picture are vaporising. From the Comic 2000AD.

I wish I could think of a good Daft Punk joke about this.

So, not sure what you are trying to get at here but me thinks it is just you.

I agree. It's almost as if J+B posed one individually, and using his photoshawp powers amalgamated them into one photograph. But, we must remember his mum probably buys him LEGO to help with his retardosity. Despite the fact that in the LOOT topic, on the first few pages he assures us his parent(s) do not buy him anything, not even clothes.

He's not boneriffic, he was home-schooled until 10th grade. He's just socially boneriffic.
