Early (FAR too early) this morning, I saw a quick add for a new Zoids cartoon...
(its always comforting when marketing bods failing imagination forces them to re-package old products... look forward to maybe... He-Man 2021?)
Although its always good to see Zoids back.. (does anyone remeber the cool, but highly unusal Speccy (&C64) Zoids game?)... And looking good in computer generated form... They have, for some reason, drawn the human heros in 'classic' cell format.. which, although I have seen work well in big budget movies, I've also seen look increadably naff in cheesy serial/TV cartoons...
Problem is I was only half awake when I saw the trailor, and from what I remeber they've created all the computer generated parts (the Zoids themselves) in a cell-shaded style (ala Jet Set Radio)... which is definitly unusual (making computer graphics look like 'traditional' cell animation and mixing it with 'traditional' cell animation') and certainly interesting....
I dont know if anyone was more awake at the time? Or whether they have seen the cartoon before (not really a big toon fan these days... unless its 40's/50's Waner Bros so it may be an old cartoon) It's possible, given my uneven weekend, that I dreamt/imagined the whole thing?

I'd much rather start the 'tart' war off. We've had a plank war today already so I think its fair to start the tarting off.
And so, to the n00b:
Shut it you TART.
A plank comes into play once again!

Medabots? WTF are medabots?
Oh, and Jamie, does the 91 represent the yar you were born? 1991 was it?
Do we have an 11 year old in our midst?
Oh, and what are medabots?
Plank.
Let's hope we don't see too much of him in the future, eh?

Yes. Indeed.
I'm off to reply to his post.
See you in a few days after an argument in which he calls me a jobby brain or something. :D
