Note that Xandar, Tara and Dorno also fired energy rocks with slingshots.<br /><br />Gleep and Gloop also seemed to be able to absorb energy weapon discharges.<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>

Did Tundro 'generate' his own energy rocks, or did he need to be 'reloaded' ?<br /><br />{sorry that sounds so weird}<br /><br />IIRC, Gloop and Gleep could fission into smaller whatever they weres, and recombine, too.<br /><br />I don't recall anything ever really damaging them, though.<br /><br />Off topic, but it always annoyed me that Xandor and Race Bannon had the same voice . . . .<br /><br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

I'd like to have that cool, shoulder mounted energy weapon Predator had that targets by where his eyes were looking. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <em>"2012.. Year of the Dragon!! Get on the Dragon Wagon!".</em> </div>

 

[drwayne]

Yeah, but I never saw Race throw a shield like Xandor.<br /><br />I don't know how Tundro got his energy rocks. For that matter, I never saw Xandor go picking them up either.<br /><br />They used the same special effects for Gloop and Gleep as they later used for Mr. Fantastic...<br /><br />Wayne<br /><br />p.s.

There's no substitute for a blaster at your side (DL44, of course)

"Mandrake Gestures Hypnotically..."<br /><br />"Mandrake was an illusionist whose work was based on an impossibly fast hypnotic technique. As the narrator informed us: "Mandrake gestured hypnotically" and the subject or subjects of this hypnosis would suddenly see a cane transformed in a bouquet of flowers or a cat into a tiger. Mandrake also worked against crooks and other bad guys in his spare time. This would include common gangsters, mad scientists and aliens from space. In their case, he would gesture hypnotically and they would see their guns change into snakes or red hot irons."<br /><br />

WHAT!<br /><br />You people constantly amaze me! A talk about "What futuristic weapon to hang over your mantle.." and nobody has mentioned the BFG-9000 of Classic Doom, Doom 2 and now Doom 3? !!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />Take all your nambly pambly weak pea-shooters and put them in the trash boys+girls.

Mandrake's wizardry sounds sort of like Jedi mind tricks.<br /><br />I wonder if that's where George Lucas stole... errr.... I mean, developed the idea? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#0000ff"><strong>Just tell the truth and let the chips fall...</strong></font> </div>
