U.N.S.C. MARINES
Last edited June 2011
Here are the little foot soldiers that comprise my miniature United Nation Space Command army. Now I have FIVE. They sport what is in my opinion the coolest of the lego heads in my collection, and I think they come together pretty nicely.
You want to know an interesting fact? Those two helmets on the left were harder to find than anything I have ever tried to find before, and I mean ANYTHING. You see, on the internet they costed about 10 dollars each including shipping (since I live in Australia) when I was looking for them. I just didn't have the time or money to spend 20 dollars for a gram of plastic. So I looked in all the private toy stores in the city (which is pretty big and took a while).
Maaan, these guys need some WEAPONS. Oh wait...
That's right, they do have weapons! But they are the ugly reversed megaphone type that the lego stormtroopers used in the good ol' days of Lego's past. Remember that? I thought those days were over, but no. They'll live on until I can bother buying some cool brickarms guns or something, which is just like using tan minifig heads... I don't know about you, but I much prefer the yellow heads.
Does that sound racist?

As well as my marines, I also have the ODSTs which are like their older brothers, on steroids. But unfortunately, like the marines, they're ill-equipped aswell. Gah
Now If that wasn't enough to give you a braingasm, I give you the Mark VI MJOLNIR spartans which are like the fathers of them all. Now will you look at that, it looks like a family portrait, or something. For all I know, minifigures don't reproduce so they can't really have families. Well, at least the spartans are decked out with sumthin' to shoot with.
Hey! These guys don't belong here. Go back to Modern Warfare (or something). Or not I guess, marines are marines, whether blue or khaki-ish coloured. Let's not discriminate. I could start a whole argument with myself over which game is better but why? They're both FPS, with many similarities. Now why do they get all the cool guns though?
By the way, If you havent noticed, there are lots of vehicles in this shot. Bet you didn't know that right? Sarcasm is the lowest form of comedy and vehicles is an annoying word to spell, in my opinion. One of those you can never get right. Anyways, 'til next time, goodbye.
