I decided to have a little fun this Memorial Day weekend and do something a little different.

Most of you who know me on Toyark know me as a moc collector. However most don't know the reasons why so many of my toys are moc. It's not really because I have illusions that any but a few of my toys will be worth big bucks some day. It's actually because I just haven't found the time to open them or the room to display them. Between work, family, and all the ups and downs of life, I have accumulated mountains of toys and never had any chance to open them and play around with them. I have piles and piles of boxes and I've got to start conserving space.

So, starting this weekend, many of my toys are on the road to freedom from their plastic prisons!

I decided to kick things off with a Memorial Day challenge. Condense this first stack (mostly Rise of Cobra, Pursuit of Cobra, and 30th Joes):



Into this:



A lofty goal I know.

So I started things off on Friday by pulling out the single pack figs and laying them out to see what I was dealing with:









I could see this was going to take some time so I got to work.



By the end of Friday I had the Renegades singles opened:



By the end of Saturday I had all of the POC and 30th singles opened:





I've still got the ROC singles, and then lots of multi-packs and vehicles still to go and only Sunday and Monday to do it in. I may not make it through in just one weekend...

Updates still to come...
