I Got My Christmas Goose Early

On Saturday afternoon, just a few days before Christmas, Rish's present to me came in the mail. He sent me out these three guys for use on Ankletown Station:

I was unfamiliar with these guys, but Rish found them at Ross, texted a picture to me, and asked if I thought they'd be cool on Ankletown Station. I guess they are Pacific Rim Jaegars reproduced in 4-inch scale.

They are interestingly weird figures. That one feels relatively normal, but look at this guy:

He has three arms! Not two. Not four, but three. Two on the right but only one on the left. Where have you ever seen anything like that before?

My favorite guy, though, is still this one:

I think it's because of the fact that it looks like it has a trash can or a mop bucket for a head that makes me appreciate it so much. It's definitely and interesting looking robot. And it's cool, because they shrunk them down to where they can stand beside any Star Wars figure or, in this case, a Fortnite guy.

So, once I get started on Ankletown Station, these guys will be interesting robots/droids to slot right into their place in the crowd. Thanks, Rish. And a Merry Christmas.

I thought it would be cool to have a hundred of those can-head robots working at your station, all painted slightly differently . . . but I only ever found the one.
