Well, if you're comparing Fords to MegaBloks and Ferraris to Legos, I'm just saying that the Ferrari is also a Transformer because it can be something else besides a Ferrari.

Yes, and good point. The only way I now of to make fords (or your typical ferraris for that matter) into other things is to crash them into trees at which point they become crushed fords.

Double/Quad Weapons

Post by knight508 » Wed Aug 12, 2009 7:23 pm

For quad/dual weapons, like on the Millenium Falcon, do they count as one weapon or multiple weapons?

I just count them as one weapon, but add up the Size of all the sub-weapons together. Any thoughts?

What the hell does this have to do with MegaBlox or Halo?

Anyway, it would depend on how you wanted to deal the damage. If you wanted it to deal one straight set of damage for all of them combined, it's just the length of all of them together. If you want them to deal separate damage, they would all be separate weapons that could be aimed and fired by one minifig all at once, but you'd have to roll all of their use ratings and damage separately.

I didn't insinuate anything. You posted a rules question in a thread about Bricks, not rules. There's a separate section for it, I was just asking why you posted it in here as opposed to the rules section.

And you're welcome for the answer, Mr. Ungrateful.

The only thing i see worth salvaging are MAYBE the weapons, and the instructions. The Hawk looks OK (other then being made of MEGAbloxz) so I imagine it would look great made of Lego.

If LEGO made this line, you all would love it. If I got one as a gift, I would salvage as much as I could. That shotgun looks especially awesome, along with the Warthog turret. Heck, If MegaBlocks had the same quality brick as LEGO, I would be all over this line. Unfortunately, they make their product out of shit from Chinese sewage systems mixed with Mongolian newspaper, so I won't be willingly aquiring any of these.
