I have no idea what I’d use it for, but I kind of need that Armoured Bear.
Also, Corax’s hair looks way less Doomrider once it’s painted 😉
I really liked Eric’s comments. After losing Duel Con I was pretty crushed as that was my first big tournament I attended but its nice to see our community bounce back. I know the Tucson scene is getting better and a bunch of us are making the trip to the Rattler Cup.
