Reminds me at toy soldiers or toy story.

if you have jetpacks, then verticle building blocks might be interesting, long falls would be deadly.

You remember shootmania-carpark posted this image of a 3d-model. I want to know if this is something we can expect in the game?

a spore style tank-park where you can add touches to a tank and a plane would work for me... your avatar would need to be exposed.

Cool, perhaps there won't be any other characters than just vehicles like this ingame? It certainly made me more curious :)

I know we will be far from perfection, but that's only to express that sometimes I see too many things in today's game for my taste. It seems that quantity is used instead of quality in some fields.

and yes, I know, you would like us to remove the cyclic turbo in TM, but they were made on purpose. :D

The cyclic turbos do serve one good purpose for most of the "serious" trackbuilders - it's great for speeding up the stadium car on PX tracks. :D
