I was thinking about making a simple custom Joe and/or Cobra figure, with a simple back story, not too specific of an MOS.

I'd snap a picture of this figure then send it to another fotographer on the site who would then take a picture of the figure and send it off to the next fotographer who would take a picture of it and send it on from there and so on and so on.

I'm not sure if our friends in South America, Asia or the land of Auss could get in on this simply because of the cost of shipping, tho I'm not sure what an individual figure would cost to send to those places.

Let me know if you guys want to try this. I'll try to come up with a figure.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

We did this on JBL last year......took 3 figures and set 3 teams........figures went across the US and 2 of them went international. I ended up only getting 2 of them back but it was fun to see people post up their pics......


The cavat to this is, if you are going to participate, make sure to follow through-its a real bummer when somebody says 'yes' and then doesn't keep the momentum rolling...

It was 2 years ago (or did it finally finish up last year?). I remember wanting to participate but because my wife was in China with the camera, couldn't. That was 2008. I'm always up for taking pics of the little guys around the lab area.

Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

Yup, but the time the 2nd figure got back to me, it was last year.......I got Destro and Wild Weasel back......Ace is still MIA.......

I'd prolly try to send it to the known members of the forum. Folks who post pictures four or five times a week maybe, just so we know who they are, and that they'll post pictures of the figure to keep it rolling and send it on to the next member. This won't exclude the new guys because some of the newer members do tend to post often.

Blood For the Baron have run something similar with Muton (known as the Mutour

Have a look here (links to participants' images at the bottom of the page):

and a few pics combined on the same page:

Might be interesting to have each participant shoot part of a story line (which they can make up), like the kids game where each one writes a sentence that the next has to follow on from...? Otherwise simply seeing the sights in each participant's location would still be cool.

Anyway sounds like fun

LOL I saw that before. Thats what we should do make a map and everything.
