Hi, I am a huge Zurg fan. I am thrilled to be the first to post here. This site is very cool. Anyhow, on to Zurg:
He is delightfully witty.
Like when he says, "when you want something turned evil, turn it evil yourself that's what Nana Zurg always said and she was plenty evil"
Zurg is my son's favorite character (Nos 4A2 is a very close second).
I am getting ready to have a birthday party for my son and we are using the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command theme. He wants Nos 4A2 on his cake and a Zurg Pinata. So I am looking for any cool graphics I can use for games for his party and any good ideas.
Thanks : )

And congrats for being the first to post something in the Zurg section. I should have a bunch of Zurg pics I screen captured from the movie and other stuff on discs somewhere around here. Would take a while to upload them all to my webspace and even find them, but I try and get that ASAP. Idea's for games, hmmm. I don't think I've been to a child's birthday party since I was a child, of course some people would disagree that I still am lol. But it's been a really long time. Hmm a Zurg pinata, you could probably paper mache one, probably in the shape of Zurg's helmet because he's kinda skinny to use a big ballon with other then his big 'ol head. But other then that's I'm fresh out :S. |

Thank you for the links RedRage! While looking over my shoulder my son was telling me the third link was Zurg on the elevator in the movie! Thank you for the welcome Buzz! I would love any Zurg pictures you may come across! I am thinking of making Zurgs body the candy holding part of the pinata with pull strings at the bottom. He will hopefully be very realistic as I will make the head, arms, zurgatronic ion blaster and cape too. My son is very detail oriented! He wants games based on the space ranger series & playstation game. I mean he would love it if we could make one room of the house Jo-Ad and another, Trade World, Karn ...he would get a huge kick out of me including the villains like Torque, Gravitina, Nos 4A2, Wirewolf, XL, the Fixer etc. I am planning on doing a treasure hunt for GAC's (galactic allinace coins), I am not sure what else.. but I want to try to include as much of that stuff as possible, after all, you are only 5 once.....or are you?   |

Sounds like a great party . Lol only once? Hmm sometimes I think I still am lol, all though pretty tall for a 5 year old. Ohh here's one for Torque, you could play pin the arms on Torque. Same idea as pin the tale on the donky only with more tails, or arms I should say lol. |

Welcome ^_^!
I agree, Zurg is one of the better villians Disney has created, lol he just makes me laugh. He's not very scary, just kinda funny lol.
A BLoSC inspired party, Aww that sounds like fun ^_^!
Hmm games games games..... What about some sort of scavenger hunt. Where you give the kids clues to find some LGMs hidden around the house and yard. Like the beginning of the movie where they are looking for the three missing LGMs. You could make different sets of clues and different sets of LGMs for different teams to hunt down plus maybe some other stuff. And time it so it's a big race.
Or some sort of race game like in the episode "Tag Team" where Buzz had to race Warp through the obsitcle course "Buzz you're leaking propelent!" it could be like a relay race.
And maybe a trivia game if the other kids have seen the movie. Kinda like the BLoSC version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" or Jepordy.
That's all I can really think of right now, anyways hoped that was somewhat helpfull ^_^.

Hiya ZurgFan! Welcome to the board and congrats on being the first to post in the Zurg section! ^_^ But a BLofSC party sounds like fun. If I was back from my trip sooner, I would have captured some Zurg screencaps for ya. But I believe I have plenty of Wirewolf pics you can use on my site ( starcommand.blackhole.at/. I also agree that Zurg is one of the better villians Disney had created. He's definately the most hilarious. I think he's one of my favorite Disney villians as well. Also, if you check out the "Bios" section of my website, you'll find some really good pics of Evil Buzz, Gravatina, Zurg, Torque, XL, and some others I can't recall right now. There's quite a few involving NOS-4-A2 in the gallery, if you take a look at 'em. Can't recall exactly which ones are the best, though. And as for ideas for party games, I think I could give you one for Wirewolf. ^_^ They'll love this game I made up awhile ago: Wirewolf Tag! It's played just like regular tag except the one who's "it" is the Wirewolf while the rest are Rangers. Then watch 'em scatter as the first "Wirewolf" tries to tag 'em and turn them into Wirewolves too. Then, finally, last Ranger standing could get a prize. ^_^ The kids I babysit love that game, so I think your son and his friends probably will too. Anyways, hope the party will be a blast! |

You know what, Buzz? Making those three pics into a screengrab gallery would have saved a bit on bandwidth for those who are still on 56k. The second one is almost a megabyte in size . . .
Edit: Oh yeah, and the third one cut off in the middle, it probably got corrupted when you were uploading it.

Thanks ALL ;D!
SpazRanger, the missing LGM game sounds like a great idea. The kids will get a kick out of having a mission!!
Ranger Parsec! My son loves the wirewolf and the wirewolf game is a super idea!! I love your web site and your pictures are really wonderful! I will check the bios section for Gravitina, Evil Buzz and the rest.
I did mention he wants Nos 4 A2 on the cake! I will have to find a way to post the picture of him in his Zurg Costume...I made it and it was way cool.
I love Zurg's sense of humor, there is one episode where he gets mad and as he is storming about he makes the remark, "that really cans my peaches!!" I just think he is an evil riot!!
It really is sad that Disney and Pixar had a parting of the ways I would have loved to see Toy Story 3. The animators do an awesome job!!
Thanks for the great ideas.... this site rocks!!

I would have still had to load them to my web space anyways. |

I did mention he wants Nos 4 A2 on the cake! I will have to find a way to post the picture of him in his Zurg Costume...I made it and it was way cool. A Zurg costume? That has to rock! I was Buzz for the few past Halloweens. Couldn't find adult sized Buzz costumes so had Nana do it , I did design it. I love Zurg's sense of humor, there is one episode where he gets mad and as he is storming about he makes the remark, "that really cans my peaches!!" I just think he is an evil riot!! Lol he is one of the funniest Disney Villians. I think that's what makes him a good character and we don't mind likeing him. He's more funny then evil. My fave frustaration line though is "Doesn't that just burn your toast!?" It really is sad that Disney and Pixar had a parting of the ways I would have loved to see Toy Story 3. The animators do an awesome job!! Thanks for the great ideas.... this site rocks!! Yeah I think Pixar got jipped there by Eisner. They don't own the rights to things they created and that just cans my peaches. TS3 would have been awsome. |

. And congrats for being the first to post something in the Zurg section.

Thanks RedRage! The pics are great and the Xr's parts game is perfect! I do not know why I couldn't think of that one!! Now I just need to find pics of his parts!!
