Orange is normally associated with Halloween.

Psychout let Bomb Burst die right in the beginning.

He's supposed to repair...

Besides the Fusion Cannon and Magnus Hammer, Lightsabers and XS2 Ionized Null-Ray... are there any weapons that fulfill that qualification?



Anyway, my own first Halloween-theme thought was a Monster hunt, but there's not really a good balance of Monster alts; then I tried Creatures, but again no balance... so I don't know... Maybe bats and wolves, the classic 'vampire' shapeshifting animals as some kind of targets? (... though I'd worry that might turn into one of those weird 'vampire-versus-werewolf' things that seem to be the common assumption these days...)

Do the Bots have any bat alt modes?

I'm pretty sure the bat creature alt is 'Con only since I'm,ve only ever seen 'Cons with them. And we had a 'bat' pop up the other day (and vampire bat today! Oh I am so considering resetting Bomb Burst so he can be a vampire bat!)
