Rabbit Season! Duck Season! Hockey Season!

I've never seen the Emilio Esteves Oscar-contender 'The Mighty Ducks,' a movie about a 'Little League' or 'Pop Warner' or 'Small Icey' or whatever you call it kid's hokey team. I have also never seen the cartoon 'The Mighty Ducks,' which, just like the movie that inspired it, is about anthropomorphic ducks that play hockey and kick ass. Wait, what?

I have however seen some of the action figures in my second-hand travels. I was never tempted enough to buy any of them. Until I saw one with boobs.

This is 'Mallory McMallard' (because people name their kids 'Person McHumanbeing, right?) I know next to nothing about her, but Google tells me she's the weapons specialist of the group. If you have to ask why a hockey team needs a weapons specialist, you clearly don't follow hockey or know anything about ducks. NOT A DAMN THING!

She cost me a quarter, so I guess I did ok, right? I don't know. She could easily be customized into a Duck Stormtrooper, which might be kind of cool looking.

  1. I seen the first Mighty Ducks movie and a couple of episodes of the cartoon and the only thing same about them.....now with this figure being in turned into a Stormtrooper....that would be pretty cool.

    1. Yeah, I'm really considering customizing her - probably easy enough to just use a sharpie and add the armor details. And find her an in scale blaster.

  2. I've been meaning to review Mallory forever (despite the fact that I still don't have her). But this version is actually different than the one I always see though. Looks like there are two releases, this one is "Spin Attack" version. Great review!

    1. She got two releases? Crazy! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for the second one!
