D
B and D fit the theme about equally well, but I think D offers a little more conceptual flexibility. B is pretty much pure pulp, while D could stretch forward as far as Star Wars without losing its pulp-era charm.
The Way of the Corruptor (Arc ID 49834): Hey villains! Do something for yourself for a change--like twisting the elements to your will. All that's standing in your way are a few secret societies...and Champions of the four elements.

I vote D
Kinda care, might buy depending on which one is selected and what powerset it is available for.
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.
B here. With a fin/finless option would be great. D was a very close second. A fin/ finless option for it would be great too.
DUDE they are ALL soooooooo awesome!

If I could choose two, B and C get my votes.
C (MIB; the cricket)
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"
*Arc #95278-Gathering the Four Winds -3 step arc; challenging - 5 Ratings/3 Stars (still working out the kinks)
*Arc #177826-Lights, Camera, Scream! - 3 step arc, camp horror; try out in 1st person POV - 35 Ratings/4 Stars
Friggin'--I adore option B. And it's winning, so I hope that continues!
pistol a is a cleaner look...perhaps a little more detail could be slick...but for a ray pistol...clean goes a long way....perhaps a little something more complimentary to ray rifle c...just sayin...they look a little more official as ray weapons...the rest of the ray pistols look like something you find in a toy store....that short pistol looks like a water gun...but they have a buck rogers kinda flare...not sure if i like it....in some applications yeah..if you are going for a more retro look...but on the whole...i only liked a...
C's not going too well, I'm always looking for shorter pistols, but there are no options for a derringer type pistol...
If I can't have all of the above, I'll vote B. It just screams...

I'm only really interested if they are available for use with Beam Rifle
I say you launch all of them. You guys have done multiple looks for weapons before in other packs (Western/Outlaw is what I'm thinking about) so I say all; or if anything, B. and D.

Please, please, please...Choice B, but make the "rings" on the barrel a color-tintable GLOW!|

I voted for B because it does seem the most retro sci-fi, but I would LOVE gun C, too. It's like the little snub-nosed pistol of the retro sci-fi gun world. And I would totally want to call it a 'bopp gun'.
B is so classic! But I do really like D too. C has a certain cute charm but I think it'd be too subtle.

went with C on this
The Legendary Cosmological Prince Reigar 53rd Illusion Control/Storm Summoning/Primal Forces Mastery/Incarnate
It's a dark and story night. That means something bad is happening out there
As my wife said "B, for sure"
Because fins are awesome!

I, too, voted for B, but D is definitely a contender. I agree with you about C.|

What would be really cool is not just the ability to change the color of each part of the guns, but also have the FX team add glows and stuff to them. B lends itself to this the best, I think. Those three rings could pulse one after the other. Coloring that would be so amazing.
Really hoping they make a couple of these rather than just one.

B, because I love fins-on-stuff-merely-for-their-own-sake and I cannot lie.
Any of them are great, though.
