Todd,
These are very cool. I love the happy dino faces with the machines of mass
destruction slung on their backs. Its very similar to having a classic smiley
going off to war just on a much larger scale.
Now we just need to give Winne-the-Pooh a bazooka and we would have quite a
nice army.
Eric Kingsley,
