Well, I don't have a boom stick.

But I do have a vaporizer!

Like oompa loompa's? 

 

They do make kid friendly figures and they have to be cheap.  LGB or other railroad figurines run $20+ for four.  That makes it expensive to populate a town or passenger train.

That might explain why when you bend their heads around backwards or yank off their heads they still smile.  Very interesting......................

Hard Times In Dogtown
Posted by Independent Operator on Monday, February 18, 2008 9:08 AM

Hard times have come to the Dogtown and Camp Wilson Area in the California Desert.  The only good paying jobs are jobs with the government at Camp Wilson such as the crane operator at the Camp Wilson Station at Dogtown, working for Shell Oil or working for the railroad.  The out of work homeless are even living under the train tracks now.  Hard times are even coming to my people supply.  All I could find in my supply were Playmobil people (blush).  The crane is Playmobile though and I'm not going to blush about that.  Had to cut the top rail almost in half though because of it's long length.
