Subject: Wunderkind Makes Weapons Out of Cardboard

Ya know, the kid might not have sex until his late 30's, but it seems pretty obvious he has talent for design and engineering, so at some point a hot younger chick is going to marry him if for nothing more than the millions he's going to be worth in the future.

If ya'll don't give him Recon for this effort, there is something wrong in the Bungie World Domination Corporate Empire.

The kid probably won't have sex until his late thirties, but it will be by some hot chick who is going to marry him for, if nothing else, the millions of dollars he's going to have by then.

Obvious design and engineering skills. If he doesn't get Recon for this, something is wrong with the Bungie World Domination Empire Corporation.

I won't deny it, you astounded me with your amazing modeled guns. But seriously, I hope this is just a passing fancy. Obsession really isn't healthy. Maybe you could make a rocket or a robot or something to say "Hey, look at me MIT, I'm a genious, lemme in!"

As someone(s) before mentioned, though, I'm not going to hate on you, because I have no doubt in my mind that someday I will be working for you or someone just like you. So let me metaphorically pat you on the back and wish you well. <=D

That was totally awesome. Once this kid makes a Gauss Hog out of cardboard, I won't have any choice but to bow down to his talent. I would like to at least see a spiker though...

And those of you idiots that can only criticize this guy, we don't see you doing anything at all. Yea the presentation needs work, but give him another five years and he'll be making these out of metal scrap and you'll still be at home in your mother's basement. Think about it

He's a kid, and he's happy doing what he's doing. Isn't that one of the ultimate goals of humanity, if not THE ultimate goal of humanity? We run through our daily lives in the pursuit of happiness, it shouldn't matter what an individual does if it isn't harming someone else and isn't detrimental to their health.

He's got great skills, is handy and all at such a young age. Even if he doesn't end up famous, he's probably a bright kid and i bet he'll end up doing something good for himself.

Stop hating, there's nothing wrong with what he did. If anything, everyone's just as guilty for sitting behind a computer and wasting time flaming him on a forum, tell me that isn't nerdy. People can be so ignorant sometimes it's just frustrating.

I criticize him because this is -blam!- retarded. Aren't these the same kind of people that get made fun of when it's anything else? I guarantee if this kid was a Harry Potter fan and made a video all of you would mock him. And that's called hypocrisy.

I'm going to open this up a bit weird alright? And here's a warning, make sure you know what side of this topic you are on before you read this.

I don't hate this kid, I hate you some of you guys. Why? Cause you are praising him for something easily done. A bit of time, effort and experience is all that is required. You guys may think that he is the best thing ever. Some of you have said that you think he'll be making our weapons in the future. Others have said that he will great engineer. I know that some of you may be not the best artists and you like this kind of stuff because it is something you aren't good at and probably never will be.

Others of you are simply being jerks to Wunderkid. You are putting him down saying things that shouldn't be said. That is totally unnecessary because frankly, he had done nothing wrong. He has simply made replica cardboard Halo 3 weapons and a, in my opinion, (mind I'm not trying to be mean but just honest, a piece of junk suit of armor). He doesn't deserve wordsthat put him down. All you are doing is trying to raise yourselves up. Please treat him just as you would like to be treated by others. Oh and when I say that don't come whining to me saying that what you are doing to him is something that you don't care whether or not people do to you. That's BS.

Personally I think that all of you declaring to Bungie that Wunderkid should receive Recon is a foolish declaration. What he displayed here in that Youtube video is that he has sent time and effort making the weapons and armor you see. I would like to post a link to a place where people spend hours, days, weeks, months and years crafting out of paper, cardboard, bondo (a thick paintlike substance that dries extremely hard and is used for patching up cars) and many other materials. Some people spend hundreds+ dollars buying and creating their costumes. These costumes are replicas of the armor and weapons in Halo 3, 2, 1 and various other things. I specifically spend a good portion of my at this website learning of new ways to effectively create my own costume replica of a Halo 3 Security helmet. I am planning to create a full suit before Halloween so that I my wear it and show off my crafting skill to the world.

For now I want to let you all know that I didn't tell you this for my own glory but more importantly the glory the artists at 405th Mjolnir Armor - Halo Costuming and Prop Site. I respect their time and effort and I think that we should. They are the true Halo costume artists.

I would like to finish in saying that the people showing true respect towards Wunderkid without praising him are the most mature in this topic. Thanks for being so awesome.

Those of you who didn't respect Wunderkid feel ashamed. You honestly are not very good people and shouldn't be posting if you don't have anything nice to say. I would love to teach you all some lessons in respect but I myself am not all that good in it either. I just try, maybe some of you should do that too. Whoever said that Wunderkid is a nerd, geek, retard, whatever, say that again to anyone and someone a lot bigger than you will be at your doorstep (like for example the Bungie team secuirty guard ((daw...I have the name on the tip of my tongue!! Sorry, I can't remember it, someone wanna point it out?)) ) When you have a big, angry man (or woman) in front of you. Watch out or you may be their dinner.

I want to say to you Wunderkid good job and keep up the good work. You did a good job on those weapons and I am sure you worked a long time to get them finished for this video. Watch the future for new opportunities and keep working hard. You'll get somewhere good before you know it. Oh and pro tip: Ignore those that bug you about anything, they just want your attention so that they can bug you more and more. This only brings down your selfesteem and doesn't help anyone. I know this seems like the wimps way to everything but you can't work everything out on your own. Find, if you don't have already (which I'm sure you do), a friend that you can trust with your life. It's good to have two, one a guy and one a girl version of this kind of friend. They will help you through life so much! (I don't know whether you already have a friend(s) like that but just pointing that out). don't just pick anyone but also make sure they trust you as much as you trust them. Be nice to everyone you meet also. Nice may be not always fun but it works just fine. There is a way to get around or in any situation by being nice, you just have to know what to do when. Also be honest. That is a good way of gaining trust and the women love it. :P

Talk to you later all,
Jesse (also known as Thor, Marcus and a few other names)
