More distinguished dissenters call for 9-11 investigation

The problem is the Gun.
see, in the drawing the charcter is holding a Mg 42 German belt fed Machine gun.
Now We have ALL seen these many times in films and photographs.
You may not think you have but you have.
So we scale the size of the person because we all know how big the Mg 42 is.
the charcter as drawn would probably be 7 to 8 feet tall.
the idiot with the baseball shin guards on could be scaled to be even larger.
The problem is the gun
there is an aftermarket plastic and aluminum 1/3 scale Mg42 covering that a ruger 10-22 .22 caliber rifle fits in to.
this is a small rifle for a young person.
if this guy was holding an actual mg 42 he would be about ten feet tall and prolly weigh fifteen hundred pounds.....
His fantasy costume does appear to closely resemble the drawn charcter.
The guy dropped some cash to do that.

Yeah, it's way too small - although in the anime, the gun is reasonably sized (you can't see the whole barrel in the picture I posted).

They use Mg42s because it's set in an alternate present, where the Axis won WW2 but then Japan was taken over by Germany.

I hope you're making that up rather than actually knowing it.

My first thought he was trying to be darth vader ! ,but darth didnt use a
machine gun (though one of the storm troopers guns was basically a mg42 with bits stuck on it ) Shouldnt have brought a bigger helmet and plates
to not look so dumb and kept a mask on , face and specs dosen't really say
ruthless killing machine





sorry for derailing thread again .
as if anyone cares

"Victoria Ashley: architecture and physiological psychology"

Obviously an expert. Combining knowledge of both structural engineering and psychology, she could probably clear up once & for all whether the steel cores in WTC 1 and 2 were in meltdown.

Sorry for the derail. We are all taking the green stalky bits out of the centre of our garlic, aren't we? Tastes bitter & gives you indigestion...
