    I am so glad they specified that STOP vs SCUM was fictious on the packaging, I very nearly tried to enlist.

    • @cmdfarsight
      @cmdfarsight 15 днів тому

      Which side would you have enlisted in? STOP would involve some Police Academy-esque japes, SCUM would involve biting the head off a Chap Mei action figure.

  • @Andromedax01
    @Andromedax01 8 років тому +69

    I really like the background for that STOP vs SCUM line, a little mad max, a little GI Joe, cool bad guy designs with a cool evil punk chick that looks like she's from Street of Rage or something... Shame about the quality because I find them genuinely compelling on paper.

    The motorcycle in the first sets engine was actually kinda detailed. They had the cylinder and everything, and the engine is air-cooled. And its also an adventure/offroad-bike which makes sense for army people to ride.

  • @brianartillery
    @brianartillery 7 років тому +5

    That first set is a Chap Mei knock off. Chap Mei toys were sold in cheapo shops, but were really well made and detailed. A lot of their figures and sets are really expensive now. Most of the Poundland 3.75 inch figures now stocked are badly made and painted Chap Mei Knock offs.

  • @0smundSaddler

    That gun on the first STOP V SCUM figure appears to be modelled of an Aliens Pulse rifle, I'm wondering if its a recast of an Aliens figure.

    As a big GI Joe fan I was very amused by this.
    I've seen those generic soldier toys too. They're the same type we have here in American dollar stores.
    S.T.O.P. vs S.C.U.M is actually kind of a cool idea and at first looks like they were trying to create something interesting. At least until you got the toys open XD

    The crappy little guns that come with these dollar store army figures are pretty accurate looking and while they dont fit in the hands of the figures they actually come with, you can use them with better figures of whoever happens to be your favorite anime waifu. (I go out and buy tons of these packages of plastic garbage just for the guns for my Homura figure)

    Your a funny guy and i am glad i subscribed to your channel. I don't even know if you read the comments, which is understable because there must be thousands of comments to go through, but anyway i'm not sure if you want to make shirts that advertise your Channel. I was wondering if you could make sad onion shirts. I know i'd want one. Have a good day and keep them coming. I definitely like the chef excellence skits those are hilarious.

    Wow, I remember the old Action Man (they still made them a few years ago - I have an occasional guilty look at the toy section in Argos.. Can't wait to have kids to buy toys "for them"), quite big figures, about 8 inches tall? I also had the "old" Action Force figures and the "New" Action Force (G.I. Joe was a mystery) - I often wondered if the two were somehow related being the same height, but the older ones with a more UK style - the eternal gun pose, fatigues etc. Loved the little rifles.

    Moral of the the story. You get what you pay for. Early to mid 80's GI-JOE figures (the smaller ones) were the greatest figures created. (Original Star Wars figures in a very close second). The vehicles and fortresses were well made. Innovation of elbow, knee, wrist and ankle joints.
    I remember finding the always sold out and so hard to find "Snake Eyes", and Shadowstorm(The cobra ninja clad in all white,the best figure, imo), in a small store in upstate NY .
