The Geohound

"At least 50% translucent" is a general guideline I use, but I suppose it is a bit ambiguous when you actually look at it. I consider a minimate with arms and legs and a crotch piece all translucent but not the upper torso and head to be over 50%. So any of the half transparent Sue Storms or that one Kitty Pride are eligible, I just never use them because I have better Sues and don't care for that Kitty's hair. Now, the rule applies to each individual fighter, and is not an overall ratio for all competitors.

As "maybe not a minimate" I did consider any and all toys being eligible for this but kind of left it behind me, but you know what, if you wanna use other things, as long as the action is clear, then go for. If you can see where the face is and see what's hitting said face, then it all works out.

........holy crap.

I'm about to start up Saint's Row 4 in a little while and I'm incredibly excited about it.

Well, he's not dead, so he's probably still pretty not see through, plus most of the prizes for this came from him, so you might not want to be smacking him around...

...unless he likes it...

...does anyone know if he's in to that kind of thing?

Well, actually if you and the other person are both at least 50% translucent, then I suppose it could count as an entry. I will absolutely allow that.

Right Multiverse boilerplate. And ummmm, yeeeennnnooooooyeeessnooooomaybeeeeeyyyeeessssno. No photoshop. Let's be hardcore about this

I'm fixing the main post as we go here. I can't believe I forgot about photoshop.

You absolutely can, and I encourage it, but it won't count as an official entry.

I think customs fall safely into rule #2 territory. So yes.

That's what it sounds like in my head too. Probably my intention.

Hey Multiverse, do you like violence? Do you like cool stuff? DO YOU LIKE WINNING!? Then we are here for you. Today we announce this amazingly fun (hopefully) contest. And what do you have to do to win, you ask?

PUNCH ME IN THE FACE!!

The rules are simple:

1) Take a single picture in which some minimate (or other translucent type figure) gets hit in the face. Punching is good. Wanna kick instead? Go for it. Jump kick his ****ing face off. Any kind of violence is allowed so long as it impacts in the face. Not the chest. Or the arms. Or the legs. THE FACE!!

1A) No photoshop or any of that nonsense. Unless you wanna do black and white or sepia tones. SEPIA TONES MAKE EVERYTHING LOOK WAY MORE BADASS!!

2) Each figure (Minimates or otherwise, because we're doing that now) in your entry must be at least 50% translucent. It's really just a guideline, but if you're not sure, just ask. This is a TTFC contest after all. They don't need to be officially released minimates either. Just slap some parts together and go to town. EDIT: This means customs are totally cool for this contest, and in general because customs are great!

3) One entry per person. Wanna post a bunch of images of fist on face violence? AWESOME! Just make sure to note which one is your official entry. All entries must be posted in this thread.

4) Want some bonus points (that in no way will actually affect your chance of winning)? Get out your Iron Man Through the Ages set, take the head and hair off this Mark VI Armor Iron Man (Hail Ivan), slap them on a translucent body and actually PUNCH ME IN THE FACE! (Well my avatar anyway)

5) Conest will run from right this very second to 11:59pm, September 10th. Central time. In America. International dudes and ladies feel free to figure out when that is for yourselves. After that, there will be a voting period of one week, so the winners will be determined by YOU! AMAAAAZING!

Prizes? Prizes! PRIIIIZES!!

First place? Oh man, how about an orange Merk? He's called the Hot Wings. Not enough? How about also a retailer exclusive STEALTH VORIN!? Yeah, you're paying attention now, aren't you?

Second place? Well yeah, gotta have a best loser right? Want a Hot Wings Merk too? We can give you that. Again, not enough? Well hell, we'll throw in a purple Shadow Merk too. AWESOME!

Third Place? Meh. Whatever. You can have a purple Merk too I guess.

Oh and because we feel like it, once the voting starts, everyone who votes will have their name put in a hat and one will be picked at random by my nephew to win a 2010 translucent blue blank. Because hey, why not?

So that's it. Get your act together, find some translucent minimates or whatever and BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF THEIR TINY PLASTIC FACES!! YEEEAHHH!!!

Contest open to all multiverse members, international or otherwise. Why? WHY THE HELL NOT! DON'T BE UNFAIR TO PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE THEY LIVE SOMEWHERE YOU DON'T!! APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR POINTLESS HATE OF OTHER LOCATIONS!!

YOUR MOM IS LOUD AND IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE YOUR DAD LEFT! SHE'S LONELY!!

New Fight Woo!!

Sunfire VS Green Blank

I'm playing it right now and I'm pretty sure I'm at the end of it. Good game, great jokes (though they probably won't be funny on a second play through) and the camera suffers from the same nonsense that most third person action games suffer from, making it a harder game than maybe was intended. I didn't buy it, mind you. I'm borrowing it from a friend, and I am a huge fan of Deadpool. I like it, but yeah, I don't think it's quite worth the full price, but if I find it cheap down the road I might grab my own copy.

Ok, If i set this all up right...

Fight #61: Master Chief VS Gamma Hulk

and if I didn't, then complain until I fix it.

Zach Oat, ladies and gentlemen! He's clearly gone mad with the power of gif.

The first frame of that fight is still among my all time favorites.

If Lurch lets me, I'll post all the previous fights up. I'd rather have them all in one place anyway, and man this is so much better than photobucket. The slideshow thing actually gives me a better opinion of my own skill. I really like it. So yeah, there will be classic fights along side the new ones. I'll either dump new ones as I get the chance or I'll put up a couple old ones each week along with a new one. It all depends on what time permits. But I'm really excited to be a part of MMC now.

Gah, indeed, sir.

I CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE ULTIMATE ELECTRO!

I mean it, the waiting is killing me. He looks so awesome.

Holy crap. I'm sorry to hear this. I wish you the best and hope you land on your feet. Best of luck sir.

Good news everyone. TTFC is now on Minimates Central! That's amazing right? RIGHT!? Well yes, it is, so let's all hop over there and hopefully see a cool fight.

I mean, really, I hope it works...

If it doesn't well, that's my fault. I have no idea what I'm doing, but a big thanks to Lurch and Luke for letting me do this crazy thing on MMC. It's fantastic.

...if I didn't mess it up.

Come to my house Zach. We'll have fun.

I know right!!! Haha Dino your the man!

I think I've inadvertently decided these two are just bad at fighting.

No prob. I don't really need much of an excuse to take pictures. Case in point:

I do. They're not. At least, not really.
