Call of Duty Jungle Troopers

Jungle Troopers. A bit meh on this set. Just repainted th earlier molds into shades of green and browns but save for that, there is nothing "jungle" about this set. Some of the troopers are wearing protecs but no boonies around. It would have been better if they selected the body parts based on what would've been more suitable for a jungle theme.

Sayang 'cuz the figures rock. Its the accessories that are bentot.

Introducing Sgt. Guerrero. Sgt. LEON GUERRERO.

"Hey, look! I can see coconuts with my big-ass binoculars! Want me to shoot some down for you with my pistol?"

Doctor Finklestein lives in a large observatory with his living rag doll creation Sally and his hunchbacked assistant Igor. James Whale's Frankenstein is quoted in Finklestein's line "I made you with my own hands" which is ironic as Finklestein's body appears to be largely if not entirely artificial. Unlike Frankenstein who takes no responsibility for his creations and disowns them almost as soon as they are completed (much like the original Dr. Frankenstein), Finklestein takes full responsibility over Sally and acts as an over-protective father and in some ways an overbearing husband (thus explaining Sally's attempts to run away) by keeping her under lock and key under the pretext of shelterin...

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!
