I can honestly say I haven't, partly cause I don't know much about mechanics and electrics and all that.
But I don't think it's a good idea to mix water with electricity, and it would probably look more like missiles if you were to use air-pressurized foam darts instead of water guns on the model.

Hmm, I just happen to be a aircraft enthusiest (I can't spell  )! I say give it a go. BTW, did you know that Capcom got the name "Fokker Wolf" from a type of WWII plane called Focke Wulf (Fw-190)? It so happens that Capcom got most of the names for the Bonnes' vehicles from German WWII aircraft and tanks. |

You're close on "enthusiast"
And I thought those names sounded German! It all makes sense now... "Marlwolf," "Gesselschaft,"
"Drache," "Blitztrieg..."
Wonder where Bruno fits in?

Yeah, Gesselschaft means, "group" I think, "Blitzkrieg"
means "lightning war", but I have no idea what "drache" means.

Gesselshaft means "rice society" in socialogist terms.
Gemmeinshaft means "poor society" in sociologist terms.
Gesselshaft = big airship in MML1
Gemmeinshaft = train in MML2

Did the pink crab thing in MML2 have a German-sounding name too, or just those Bonne mechs?

It's called the "Crabbot II" I believe. The original Crabbot was called the Feldinaut/Feldynaught, though, so I don't really see the sense in that. Eh. Oh well.

The Bonnes must be closet Nazis or WWII enthusiasts, I swear. Teisel's armor makes him look like a crazy general. His profile even looks German... Lookit his nose. @_@
Well, we do know they are German anyway. X3
Pleh, I knew they were from some European country or something when I first heard the name ages ago.

Yeah, so I do I. I'd say that they must have bits of French in them; hence the name Bonne.

French? I don't think so. It's Bone is Japanese. I know cause Tron's Japanese name is Toron Bone. America just got one more n.

Well either way, it's foreign in either language...there's also a city in Germany called "Bonn," which supports the whole "they're German" thesis.
