Lose Your Funk

* The hunt is on, and leading the pack is the dreaded WERE-WOLF! For reasons unknown, this classic rival to the Star Fox team has undergone a monstrous transformation, becoming half-wolf and half… wolf. He's got a wide array of music in his arsenal, from songs about the monsters in your closet to the depths of space. Either way, when you step to him… no one will hear you scream.
