Call of Duty: Team 2

The Mega Bloks Call Of Duty Jungle Troopers set comes with five microaction figures with detailed accessories and weapons, combat vests, etc. The set also comes with jungle terrain including foliage, rocks and stackable sandbags. A green care package to store accessories and weapons is also included.

What's weird is that the team leader does not have a rifle, and you can only arm him with a pistol.I was so weirded out by this that I stole another rifle from the desert set to give the poor bastard. well, just for this shoot though.

So drop a special forces operator deep in the jungle armed only with a knife and a pistol. Yeah, right.

That being said, the Mega Bloks micro action figures sure give you bang for the buck. Highly detailed figures are poseable and customizable, you can mix and match body parts as well as equipment -- with plenty of intricately detailed parts! I had a lot of fun designing my first team and with each set customizable, you can buy multiple sets and still come up with different looking and unique figures. Save for the LT who just gets a pansy pistol.

Hey, he must be a bad-ass killing machine then.

The Nightmare Before Christmas: Doctor Finkelstein

Doctor Finkelstein is a resident of Halloween Town. He is the mad scientist and the "father" of Sally. He is described as a pale-as-a-sheet mad scientist with a duckbill-like mouth and a hinged skullcap that he can open up to reveal his brain. 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!
