The Fox Busters

accRedStarfoxOctober 16, 2003

I'v thing, is an amazing idea. In this spacial cartoon, chickens stricke back to the foxes, what them for lunsh. But the Foxbusters show tham many other thing to chew on. Rancam, Simms and Jeffries shot them mostly with thier bomb and gunsounding eggs, but it works an the foxes gonna run!!! Rancam, spoken from wopie goldberg, is the hot shot from the team. In some episodes she is real lazzy, in other she's, coolest of the foxbusters. Simms is the Brain of this crew. She just often have the "fox away" ideas. How in real live, some work and much go wrong. Jeffries is total smart and the wired's chicken on foxtailfarm. My mainlanguage is germen so do not mind at any failures...
