I've heard that BD is making a TCU. I know they have already made a prototype. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a pic of one. andrew at rock and snow said he got a chance to play with one recently but didnt have pictures. I guess this would pretty much blow the metolius and DMM TCU's out of the water. it is supposed to be a single stem unit with the springs hidden inside the lobes (like on most aliens)......... on another note: why the f*%$ is this new format so streched out? every time I open a post it is streched out so I have to scroll across massive lines of text????? :x :x

The C3's are under wraps until BD feels like releasing them. They'd be all over any leaks like a bad rash at this point in the game. When the things are ready to sell, rest assured, you will hear about it :-)

Allegedly, the followup to the C3's will be a Splitter-like C2. Of course, that's just a rumor.
