Soldier Force Navy Seal

I saw this at Family Dollar and had to snag It up for three bucks. It was really the only other figure from the line I wanted , so.  I love the color scheme and weapons but the lack of articulation take away from an otherwise  really cool looking figure.  He's got articulation at the head , arms and legs but no elbow, wrist  or knee joints.  He does ,however, have articulated ankles for some deep diving flipper action! The flippers are not removable.

Thank god for hole In the wall stores like Family Dollar. O.K. It's not that bad of a place to shop and my kids loved It when they were younger. It just seems like a lot of them are going to shit these days with their ravaged display shelves and  disgruntled employees complaining about management. I can see how the youngans   become enamored by it as  90% of what they carry consists of junk food and toys. Take these Chap Mei Soldier Force figures. For about 12 bucks ,a kid can walk out of their local Family Dollar with a small army and a 10 foot long piece of chewy ,sour  rope to wash it down! Nothing a beats a coinciding toy and candy high.

I saw these Chap Mei figs at my local Family Dollar going for 3 bucks a piece and couldn't pass them up. I think they'll look good In some pics with my DC Infinite Heroes figures. Speaking of,I also picked up  Hawkman, from the DC Infinite Heroes line. A more in depth look at all the figures should be up and posted later on tonight ;)

I pulled the trigger on this small lot of Chap Mei military figures the other day.5 bucks and some change was all I paid for these guys,a steal If you ask me.I'm extremely late to the Chap Mei party.I see them alot on blogs,Youtube  and Instagram and always thought they looked cool.It wasn't until Brother Midnight sent me a Chap Mei troll that I would decide to give these figures a try.What I like the most about these figures Is their quality.The plastic Is very rough and tumble, reminiscent of the old Adventure People figures. They remind me alot of the old Kenner stuff ,too.You could use these with alot of other toy lines-Kenner Aliens-Jurassic Park,Swamp Thing and even the new King Kong stuff thats been coming out lately. The sculpts are enough to keep you busy .Lots of small intricacies here and there with damn near perfect paint apps.Their weapons are big,very big.A trait that  takes away from realism but distinguishes the line.I really like these guys!So much so that ...
