LOL
I received a package on Friday from a member of this Board containing a number of unassembled parts, with instructions to assemble, photograph and post. So I am complying.

Maybe there should be a poll of the "usual suspects"?

Since I have first hand knowledge I won't guess.

When I heard I was getting a bunch of unassembled parts, I was hoping for an 18B project . . . Oh well.

Better than an 18D Project

Looks like practice for court to me - unless you can put your opponent together, you can't take him apart, piece by piece - kind of a lawyer anatomy lesson, notice - there was no heart.... but the jaws were very detailed.

Hey man, gotta have toys on the desk, and it seemed just 'wrong' enough.
Next time, maybe a GI Joe recoilless rifle to put together, if one can even be found any more, the kind you had to put together. Or instructions on building a "funnelator" - fun toy, but would not go over very well in a Law Firm, liability issues and all.....

I had the SF GI Joe my mom got me for Christmas in 1969 or so. He had a cool Bazooka that shot plastic rounds!!

On my desk at home, I have a long haired (pink), sunglass wearing, earring wearing, naked troll, with a GI Joe 7th Grp Beret - wish Hasbro had made a 10th Grp beret for GI Joe. My brother actually found the beret while doing some work at my folks in Asheville after they moved down - he gave it to me (I wonder why?) and it fit the troll (a gift from my ex)... so it's been guarding my computer for about 12 years now... maybe I'll see about getting a picture of it.
Anybody have a miniature Rolex or Tag ... need to keep up the 70's - 80's SF perceptions.
