The Brick Miser: Advent Calendar 2016: Mega Bloks Despicable Me: Day 19

Day 19: Fart Gun













And today, we actually get something from the movies: the Fart Gun. Which was the center of what was admittedly one of the funnier parts of the movie! ...And you know it's not a good sign for a movie when a joke about body gas is one of the comedic highlights...













This I think is the first straight-up accessory we've had so far with the calendar, where it's not a standalone model and needs to be held by a character to have a purpose. But I like that we're getting items that the Minions can actually use, so it's a good change of pace.













It's also a nice design and very colorful, with a custom speaker-like brick for the front and a few pieces using Mega Bloks' pipe series. It does look almost exactly like the gun from the movie! It's surprising that they made something this detailed out of something that only had a few seconds in the movie.













 Overall, a good change up from the regular models we've been getting and a well designed accessory for the Minions. Or for any minifigure for that matter. ...Just keep it away from kids, unless you want to hear them imitating farting noises all day. They already have a stupid electronic toy for that...
