The giant construction sites completely altered the Tamakyuro mountain area. This was done to foster a natural, restful environment for the housing project. These elements, combined with several new ideas, now present us with the opportunity to thwap each other with boffers. The construction workers are regular salaried joes equipped with the latest in 1960's construction technology. Their objective is to ensure that construction can safely continue in this particular area of the mountain in order to provide homes for thousands of families.
Construction workers wear red headbands.
Power shovels wear white headbands. The Tanukis, on the other hand, are mystical Japanese creatures that have the ability to change their shape, morphing from scurrying dogs to anthropomorphic combatants with opposable thumbs. They will defend their homes to the death, helped by the fact that they breed large litters. Tanukis don't wear headbands. Finally, there is a small commune of tree-hugging hippies at the edge of the forest who don't dig the vibe of mankind razing the trees and killing the cute furry animals.
