Toy fans, I need a suggestion! · 12:57am May 16th, 2014
If some kid wanted to create a Chaos God that is totally awesomer and eviller than Discord and is like all dark and edgy and stuff, and did it by taking pieces of other action figures apart and sticking them together into some kind of ridiculous monstrosity, which toys should be put together to make this eminently mockable evil god?
Unfortunately I know of no Cthulhu toys that are on the same scale as Barbies, or the answer would be obvious.
(Oh, but wait! What if we put Unicron's head on a Barbie? Then maybe I could also mock the concept that a guy who eats planets represents chaos better than a guy who makes fish swim in air!)
No, but seriously, I need an action figure chimera. An assemblage of parts of well known action figures put together to create something that is supposed to be more chaotic and evil than Discord, except this is me we're talking about so obviously the point is to make fun of it. As for why action figures, Robot Chicken is normally told entirely in action figures, so I figure I'll do an action figure Robot Scootaloo sequence. Yes, there really actually isn't a Discord action figure.* I kind of suspect half the celebrities that appear in Robot Chicken don't really have action figures either.
* If you know otherwise about this, LET ME KNOW.
YOU NEED BARNEY BITS!
The body of Megatron
The tail from a Godzillia
Arms from Stretch Arm Strong
The head of the Borg Queen
Also give it the Soul Reaver and a plastic rocket launcher
And for legs...
Just attach the body to a vintage Batmobile.
You need the head of one of those cheap MLP knock-offs. I demand it.
I remember my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle toy with fondness. Do those still exist? Because the body of a chelonian is pretty mockable...
Bonus points if you get Gak in there, of course.
Actually a good source of ideas would be to watch the commercials shown in the ad breaks of MLP episodes.
