Space Force

Space Force

Amazo Toys - Kickstarter exclusive

Taking the wacky proposal of a US Space Force to the extreme, and partnering it with some good old 80s, Cold War nationalism equals the most bananas 3 3/4 inch figure line in a long time.  Trump and Obama combine forces against Putin and the Russians in the re-ignited space race for Mars!  

Sure, the inclusion of recent political figures, even the Space Force notion, have become more than dated since the inception of this Kickstarter project.  (It took almost two years for them to get to my door.)  But the imagination's the limit with all the extra incentives that were unlocked.  I bought in for the historical heads alone. 

The gamble paid off, because the new Indiana Jones movie will focus on the space race in the late 1960s.  I have no idea if we'll see Indy in a space suit, but...

Hey, that "Nick Fury" looking guy also kinda looks like Charlton Heston!  And they included a damn, dirty ape headsculpt as well!

Chuck's not the only undercover actor here.  This "Russian" guy with the cigar looks an awful lot like Arnold Schwarzenegger!  And that "Rasputin"? A very specific "John Wick" Keanu Reeves!

Anyway, back to Indiana Jones and the Lost Cold War Adventures...

Einstein and Tesla...alive?  A meeting of the minds!

Hearing problem, comrade? 

I said, "I LIKE IKE!"

Alt-Right fantasy?  Or a glimpse of things to come?  

As for a more plausible future, I hope some of the locked campaign items make it out with Fresh Monkey Fiction's Eagle Force figures (exclusive to Big Bad Toy Store).  I love the Ghost of Ronald Regan head, but would love even more to have one fleshed out along with other presidents:


Silly, but damned if I don't want a beefy, gun-toting Super Mario, too!
