Time for my second review! I'll be taking a look at another Call of Duty Mega Bloks item with the brand new Jungle Troopers "care package" set. This 147 piece set is included in the $15 "troop pack" assortment and includes a small build-able terrain piece, various accessories, and five micro action figures.
I'll cover the "boring" part of the set first, which is the terrain piece. It is a very simple build that involves two base plates, some small pieces to connect them, and some "scenery" bits to finish it off. I did find the small palm trees, which are made from a molded plant piece placed on top of stacked cylinder pieces, quite fun to build. The finished terrain piece isn't anything groundbreaking but it does a good job representing jungle scenery.
Now for the good part: figures and accessories! Like most of the "care package" sets, Jungle Troopers includes five fully articulated micro figures with a plethora of weapons and accessories. The figures are molded in various shades of green and brown to distinguish them as jungle soldiers. Only four rifles are included, but a pistol and several backpack pieces make up for the lack of a fifth rifle. All of the extra gear can be stored in the opening crate that is included.
This is a solid troop pack and a great way to add more variety to your Mega Bloks Call of Duty collection. It is hard to go wrong with five articulated figures and a small build for around $15.
