I like what I see so far here.

JJP - Stop now, finish the artwork and the ruleset and call it a day.

WOZ is WAY too cluttered IMO. This whitewood looks to have some good potential already - no need to make it so busy.

That didn't take long for the pinside photoshoppers :lol:

They do like those rollovers to light locks, don't they? Art looks nice-looking forward to getting mine!

I want to see smaug, and I hope those locks arn't roll overs, I hate that lock is lit via rollovers on WOZ

Based on the CAD drawing and the art cutouts, my bet is you're looking at the same rollovers.

At least it's only 4 rollovers and not the huge pile of them on WOZ? The overlay actually makes a lot more sense-the area in the middle was confusing with the gap, but that makes the captive ball shot pretty obvious. It also looks like all four of the popups are troll style bash toys (and not TOM style trapdoors)-hard to tell from the whitewood video whether they were all the same. What I'm not sure of now is what looks like the subway system around smaug and going over to where the radgast insert is. Is that just a scoop/vuk shot feeding the wireform on the right?

Agreed though-I'd like to see what's in those two big blank areas. I'm guessing smaug will pick up balls somehow, and it also looks like you'll be able to get behind three of the drops near him, so maybe something a little like Hulk on Avengers? Maybe also hit a ball back with a tail mech (since Jack mentioned interacting with the ball in multiple ways). No idea what "bag end" is going to be in there.

nasty lookin' shooter lane

 

[Chris Bardon]

Judging by the holes, probably a spot for Smaug to grab a ball where the longer hole is, and maybe stash a ball in the other saucer? Still looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

So the LE feature list so far is...bronze armor? Probably Invisiglass too?

Also, fire button or something on the lockdown bar. Wonder what that could control on the PF?

This peaks my interest a bit more - as blurry as it is . . .
