Although I wasn't aware that the Chicago Sprawl spread across half of Indiana to make Aurora the outskirts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

actually, while it's obviously made special for today, i'd say there's at least a few things in there that would happily see use.
surprisingly, the not-a-barbie car can mount weapons, for example... better make it a not-a-GIJoe if you want it to not look suspicious though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) and i'm pretty sure that android will get used by at least a few people (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) |

Each MK of the android is statted up in a matching edition's rules. So, it's useful for the SR 3, 2, and even 1 holdouts that float around. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I couldn't believe how many of these things could be of use. The hoverboard, the mech, the android. Just... wow. I love it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Like others, there are things in there I'd actually use in game.
My rigger has a squad of 8 inch tall action figures that he uses for spy and infil drones. The remote car (( natually the GI Joe model!!) Would work great with them. The Android, while done up for humor, IS mentioned in the books. Both the recoil from them after the crash, and the fact that AI's like to use them. Granted most people would use them as sex bots, but combine this with some of the persona's out of the Sims book and you could get some intresting combos. A maid that kept your safehouse cleaned, stocked and who could hold an assult rifle and guard you while you slept or healed up after a run? Not the worst idea in the world. If I'm reading it right, the base model newest gen starts at 50K, with addon's not being too stupidly expensive. Figure if you get one used. (( Really really REALLY clean it)) You could probably net one for 15-25K. lol. |

Since we have weapons which can shoot further than 1 km... |

The mech isn't too far out there. I took a GMC Banshee, turned it into a walker, and dumped a whole bunch of weapons and sensors on it - effectively turning it into a mech.
The Ares Hurricane Military Walker The Ares Hurricane is one of the most advanced walkers in the market. This behemoth stands well over 10 metres tall, and is used out in the field against some of the largest threats in the Sixth World. Each weapon system is designed for independent firing, and is capable of tracking a target without the pilot's attention, continuing to fire upon the target until it is destroyed, or can all be locked together into sequence firing, each weapon firing on the same initiative pass.

This was a fun one, and I actually did a lot of work on that BattleMech to try and make it "playable". If you're in a game where you have access to Tanks and Jets, the Mech isn't really that "out there". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Plus the Amish War Buggy pic that Squinky did for me was AMAZING. I laughed my ass off at that one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I love it. next time, can we get hobby air-plane to add to our arsenal as well? After all, what rigger wouldn't jump at the chance for some cheap disposable air recon?
Also, love the Amish war buggy. Whoever thought of that deserves a pay rise. |
