Cause it's the new "cool kids" thing! Think Jax (I think that was his name) from Mortal Kombat.

"Tomahawks?"

A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and proceeds to fire it at the other patrons.

"Why?" asks the confused, surviving waiter amidst the carnage, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"Well, I'm a panda," he says. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry in the manual and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."


Are you saying pandas needs cybernetic arms?

Not entirely, we can still at least do full body previews.

How is it supposed to bend?

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?

Yes to ditching the limitations of flesh and making ourselves closer to the unstoppable war-machines we fly.

No to restricting said possibilities to outrageous pricing.

I support equal opportunity mechanization. Everyone deserves to be a terminator, in their own right - or at least look like one. The ability to make terrible one-liners sound awesome not included.

well its a nice texture mod, but without having the ability to show it off, they are pretty useless. How about a nice real 3d modeled arm, instead of some texture layer? Or how about getting WIT done, so we can show off all the nice and fancy stuff we have on our avatars?

They have gone beyond humanity, death after death, resurrection after resurrection, they now want to feel what it used to be human even if it means mutilating their fresh bodies.

Bear (I have no idea in which context to use this bear, but now seemed like a good time)
btw, have you checked them out? I was working on creating the in game items and posted a screenshot. The male version is a bit different though.
(please note that the mystery code gives only one of them)

Well obviously he can't be doing anything interesting with his time... plus clones are cheap and any breech of the pod starts the cloning process making his earlier rationale flawed.

So is that a devhack, or do two mystery codes really allow that?

it's a bit more than a tattoo... I think it's an awesome cyborg arm, if you don't, then so be it P
(the male arms are also amazing... in my opinion P)

I guess I need to ask some people about that, but as it stands, if you had 2 mystery codes, you could claim one left and one right and have them both on.
(and this is "dev hack" in the sense that I actually have them, but it's only on my local server since they are not out on TQ yet)

Darn you with your tempting of us code holders (now in actually useful form)!

But yes I approve one arm one tattoo and a wonderful pirate patch with a LASER!

Thanks for making these, they are a real neat surprise.

What do you think the stats on these guys are gonna be when it's WiS time? (i.e. Eve The Third Decade Collector's Edition)

Should we nerf/buff them now?
