Have been working on this general idea for a few weeks I think I might be done by the end of the week at the latest.

Nice :)

Needs a kickass arsenal to complement the innovative use of motorcycle pieces, though.

Plus, it doesn't look very playable, with the hip joints being so weak-looking.

The joints are a LOT stronger then they look.

The legs are very solid, and the upper body was fragile until I went back and did a re-design, now its pretty stable.

Nice. Is it a She? Also, looks like it's completely sentient, no way you can squeeze in a pilot.

J+B, If your looking for encouragement to keep you going then you've got it. This looks really good and I like the use of pieces, I can't figure out the chest plate however.

Now, get back to work and finish this off.

I've got to admit I'm kind of creeped out by this, I'm convinced it's some form of cooperative trolling.

I have seen no reason to take J+B to task lately, so I haven't. To do so without reason would make me el douche.

I've noticed J+B has become less... uh, J+B, so I'm prepared to think that stage one of my J+B training thesnuggly plan has been successful. I actually thought he would break but instead he has responded even better than expected by coming to see what a douche he was and actually trying to correct his manner.

Now the way is clear for stage two to be put into operation.

I think so Brain... but where will you find a marshmallow large enough to fit a helicopter inside it?

Hah, poor Tzan. You have no scope of how intricate and long winded my plans can be. The Stay Puffed Marshmallow monster in Nomopoly shall suit my needs.

Edit: Love that show, Naarf!

The hips look like they're weak, even though they are stable. Maybe cover them better, making them look more robust? Other then that, very good. Legs are great, especially lower half. Very inventive use of motorcycles, it looks great.

I made a head and arms but after looking at it a few times I decided i'll do a remake of them.
