| (Below) Kim Hutsell and Weta's Greg Broadmore try out each other's weapon. |
| This is why a shorter weapon can sometimes be advantageous! Although, bigger guns do make lovely big holes! |
| Heather E. Hutsell. Her Time Jumper dress is her own creation, made entirely from a surplus parachute and covered in pocket watches. Pretty as a picture and always on time! Rumor has it that the dress has something to do with a work-in-progress Series episode? Movies script? Novel? Whatever it is...she isn't telling! |
| Wow! Talk about a blast from the past!!! |

The Unnatural Selector vs Starburner 2000
This, of course, is an alias. The true identities of
those employed by the Starburner Galactic Courier
Service are never revealed. Anonymity protects the
courier, the company and the client. But why use old
men for conveying messages or sensitive
documents across space and time? For all the
same reasons that have allowed them to become
old men. They know things, things that can be
gleaned only through years of experience, things
that ripen into the kind of wisdom that has aided
them in surviving not most, but every battle, every
hardship, every obstacle placed in their path. They
do what is necessary to complete their task
because nothing less is acceptable. They wield the
skills of diplomacy and the art of deception. They
can stir a whirlwind of attention without disturbing a
house of cards. They're loyalty to the mission is
rock solid and they never...EVER...yield to the
highest bidder. They cannot be seduced by riches,
fame or pleasure, coerced by rationalization or
debate, nor broken by pain. They can suffer that
which the young cannot imagine and navigate the
treachery of those who would have them deviate
from their appointed duty. Their word truly is their
bond. Honor above all.
