Wow, Test_Rat, you stink at making arguments.

Yeah he depicts supers doing super things but the way he draws the human body is so outside the bounds of form and physics that I can't stand to look at his figures standing or in motion.
I know the Beast Run is coming, but since this is an open forum I have the right to say that it looks embarrassingly bad (much like the crouch and growl animations, I guess there is a theme there huh?).
You like the look? Great, tell them so. Just like I will tell them it looks ridiculous.
So, again: Anthropid frame is not meant to move like that, and beast run looks rather poor. Yeah I am pretty much going to have to deal with that, because it's bloody unlikey that Paragon is including new models and skeletons in the beast pack.

I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...
BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!

Pointing out inanities in an argument is not "shouting down." Another inanity is your tendency to use the "nuh-uh!" argument while painting yourself the victim. You have Palindrome?

I'd love for an arm length slider, so many of my characters border on ridiculousness due to how short their arms are.

Personally, I'm quite happy about this pack and plan to use a variety of the pieces. And I don't plan on discriminating against anyone for their choice of costume.

Oh, I just LOOOVE it when people start inventing conspiracies, suggesting cliques and attacking people's post counts, otherwise known as "trolling."

So fellow speculators, when do you speculate we will see this booster on live?
I'm personally betting soon after the spring fling starts. Waiting for a PAX East reveal seems a little bit too long.

Agreed. Just the other day, we were saying i19.5 would be around PAX, but lookie here, they released it this week!|

*crosses fingers* Please be within the month of February...
Personally I would like to see more Head variety but NOT Monsterous heads. They are too rigid. If you make a birdlike face with fethers, then you can have a few beaks in Detail and fethering for head in other Detail. This would allow you to use all kinds of new combinations instead of 1 or 2 new heads.
What is needed for detail 2 is a Snout or maybe heads with Snouts. So you can pick which snout (ala hats) you want on your head but still keep other build options to customize it. Minotaurs? There are a dozen horns already all you really need is a face with a bull snout. I don't know maybe that is a crazy idea.
----------------------------
You can't please everyone, so lets concentrate on me.
I predict that the pack will come out two weeks ago.
However, due to a time/space anomaly, it will come out by next Friday.
So long as the Menders don't mess anything up...
(I could be crazy, but I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out this Friday... but I could be way off)

If it is a "crazy idea"... Let's get crazy!

Well, all I know is that I've wanted to create Element Dog since this game first came out, and even though he still can't STAND on all fours, now he can RUN on all fours. And he's not an anthropomorph, he's a DOG! 
(Or at least, a dog is his natural form, as a shape changer if he wants to take on an anthropomorphic form, he can)
I don't really care if the Beast Run doesn't look natural, although I do agree with those who hope it looks better with the Monstrous legs.
I'm really hoping we get a lot of variety in the pack. The canine head we've seen so far is awesome and perfect for my dog samurai from a parallel Earth, Tsuba Inu, as I had an Akita in mind when creating him, but it'd be great to have floppy ears like hounds and folded-over ears like Pugs (and even the ability to choose one folded ear and one upright ear for that Scamp look). Plus the slider affecting the snout would let us make a lot of different animals from wolves to raccoons to foxes.
A variety of bird beaks would be awesome, too. The eagle head shown so far is really cool, but it'd be terrific to have duck bills, parrot beaks, raven beaks, chicken beaks and sparrow beaks. Allowing the slider would change a chicken beak to a sparrow beak, too.
Probably pie-in-the-sky, but that's a hopes thing.

This was a great suggestion that was made in the original thread about this, with some people posting some very impressive looking mockups showing how it could work.
