Here we are after the top and bottom halves are secured. No glue is required and the fit is snug without the extra adhesion. The bottom and top halves of the hull are a simple snap-fit together.
You can drive this around after construction if you like which is good for younger modellers, but most who are reading this won't feel that need I would think. Here you see them attached to the already moulded on parts of the suspension on the hull. I really over-emphasized the damage (along with a few bullet holes) to keep in the same cartoonish scale detail as the model design. I took to these with a cutting saw and the scalpel to take the nicks out of them that often occurred in heavy road wear. A start is the road wheels, that in real life are rimmed with rubber. Whilst this meant I’m not able to attest to the unlockables or progression systems past a certain point, it felt like a small mercy.Because the build is so very simple we will keep it brief we will concentrate however on the parts of the kit that the modeller could enhance. There are significant difficulty spikes, as I found myself struggling against the third boss in a seemingly no-win situation with little to no guidance as to how to progress. In comparison to twin-stick juggernauts such as Super Stardust, Toon War feels like a mobile game. Enemies will drop power-ups that can be used to kill more enemies for a short time, and the player’s score is tracked in the top left corner. It’s a case of moving the Tank with one stick and shooting with the other. Ironically, the gameplay is probably the least interesting part of the experience when it comes to Toon War, as I found myself far more perplexed over the question “who is this game for?”. I put the word terrorist in quotation marks because the game doesn’t pull it’s punches when it comes to the stereotypical portrayal of people of Middle-Eastern origin, with the characters being cartoony caricatures of the typical “generic terrorist man” you’d see in an episode of South Park or in a bad movie from the early 2000s. Toon War is a game that I had no prior knowledge of prior to release: a simple, easy to pick up twin-stick shooter in which the player is put behind the wheels of a cartoony assault vehicle and tasked with mercilessly killing “terrorist” forces.
