Did you play with those little green army men when you were young?

And maybe subjected some to the War Of The Worlds heat ray from your magnifying glass? :twisted:

Well, if you enjoyed your plastic army men, then take a gander at this awesome Hallowe'en costume. 😎

I had them sure, far from my favs at the time though. It's like they were just there cause they were cheap, I usually lined them up for the killing by Megatron or Serpentor. I remember I shoved them in Voltron lions once I lost the original men that came with it.
 
Yep, they came in bags of a hundred, for like a buck. Used to set 'em all up in battle formation, the douse them with lighter fluid, toss in a match and stand back!
 
You're all wankers. Taking the low skill, high destruction route. I preferred the targeted precision of an air rifle :^D
Had one of those wooden sling shots....that didn't last long enough for me to piss off the neighbors or the squirrels.

Damn 1%er.
 
sniff..ahh the memories!

I had garbage bags full. I would do pretty much everything mentioned. at least until my dad caught me in the backyard with the gas..but hell it was cool laying waste to 20-30 at once!

One year we got like 20 bricks of bottle rockets. I would stack them in formation and target them. hehehe

lol and i would use them as targets with my pellet gun.

man..wish i had them still. be fun to destroy them with mykids..
 
A soldering iron made for some pretty realistic wounds and dismemberment. What good were army men without mangled bits and pieces of other army men? Not that the little angel I was would do such a thing. It's sick and wrong.
 
everyone had them; because they were cheap. oh boy, they were reeeally cheap. My mom must have bought a dozen pounds of them lil plastic things ... i was swimming in them. green and grey army men, red indians, yellow cowboys... i had some in larger scale too, they were awesome.

ofc then Masters Of The Universe came out and that was the end of it.
 
Not really, mainly just pen caps, or the stems on pen caps.

LOL same here. Something about that soft plastic... I don't do finger nails either. Shoot me a message if you ever find out you are deficient in some mineral or vitamin please!
