EDIT: Mapman World Tour 2013 has started and the thread can be found here: http://www.littlerub...howtopic=186454

Hey guys, now considering my current collection goals are either ticking along nicely or have been achieved, I've decided its about time I re-kindled my interest in M.U.S.C.L.E and try to complete my flesh set. Whilst I was browsing through the figures I have and those that I still need, I had a simple idea for a little 'project' involving one figure in particular.

The idea is to send that figure on a 'World Tour', where he visits different LRG members from different countries and different areas within those countries. Whilst there, he could have his picture taken with that member, as part of their collection, or even surrounded by something that the country/area is famous for. Once the member has snapped and posted their pics, they simple send him on to the next member of their choice, who then repeats the process.

I've already mentioned this to a couple of guys who like the idea and would like to be a part of this, so now I'm just looking for signs of any further interest from LRG members. If there is a decent amount of interest then I'll start a new thread in the M.U.S.C.L.E forum, post my pics and send him to the next person.

As for the figure who will be making this journey, the choice was obvious - #102 Mapman

This is all just intended as a bit of fun, but if you have any ideas/comments/concerns let me know :thumbsup:

I remember this being done on another forum years ago. The item they sent was an inflatable gnome, if I recall correctly. It was moderately successful for a while.

 

The only suggestion I would have is that the figure should be identifiably unique to the forum in some way. Maybe have LRG written on him somewhere, to differentiate him from a run-of-the-mill Mapman.

Ask me about trading coffee for your spare M.U.S.C.L.E.S.! I'll take most, regardless of condition :D

Hopefully he'll make it to your place at some point - it's best if he travels to members who've shown an interest so that they'll be more willing to send him on again :thumbsup:
