I made a metroid thingy once, out of cotton and shiny paper. The biggest problem is that a metroid HAS to be semi-transparent, otherwise it just doesn't work. And if you can manage to make a semi-transparent metroid plush, with those triple nuclei below the green layers, then I'll have to give you an award. And buy the plush.
*Sips some Tequila. Or Phazon. Same stuff, different name.* So, how many days is this party lasting for?
By the way, what have you people done to Nate? He must have been really tired today because when I got back from work at 10PM he was already asleep! You're overworking him. Speaking of...it's 4am and I have a 9:30am class to get to...so it's time to go to sleep. I'll touch Nate in inappropriate places for you from the top bunk. I'll report on the consequences tomorrow.
UPDATE: Nothing happened that night, but today Nate and I held hands on the way to class! In public, no less! (Sort of dangerous in Conservativeville, Texas)
lol. would have to kill him if he did that. no, libbie is my true love. fingercuffs is sort of like this thing that lives in the same room with me. i look at him sometimes.
well, as guys go, he's not too offensive. you know, pretty hairy, but not a bear or anything, and not freakishly tall or freakishly short. so yeah, passing over him as i reach for my (insert m2k2-related merchandise here) is not too bad. at least, i don't involuntarily scream or anything.

*inserts m2k2 metroid plushie* OMG! I WANT ONE TOO!!! *cries*
If I weren't completely busy and didn't already have a few projects on the table to finish, I could probably put one together using various materials. I took some sewing type classes in school and am kinda good at that kinda stuff, but I'm too busy to really get into it right now.
I am VERY interested in how anyone would make a metroid plushie transparent in the right places. It just wouldn't be a metroid if you couldn't see into it.
If you couldn't make it transparent, the next best thing would be put the hearts/brains (I never have figured out which those are) as slightly flattened spheres on the outside.
They're nuclei. If you've ever done enough biology to know what a cell looks like up close, that's what a metroid seems to be based on, only with more than one nucleus and fangs. If you don't know what a nucleus is, it's essentially a brain.
Nuclei do carry chromosomes, but they also act as the "brain" of the cell. For a single-celled organism (which I'm assuming a metroid is), the nucleus is the closest thing it's got to a real brain.
