FIG PHOTO: “Char On A Horse”


OK, this ine I need to explain.My favorite postcast, as I’ve mentioned, is Get Played. On a (relatively, time has no meaning) episode of the show, co-host and Gundam fan Heather Anne Campbell mentioned a Gundam statue on her bookshelf she called “Char On A Horse”. At the time, I didn’t know jack about Gundam but I looked it up and saw the fucking bonkers statue she was referring to.

In the ensuing… months? I started watching Gundam and started buying some Gundam toys and some other toys and realized that within a short span of time, I’d bought a horse… and I’d bought a Char…CHAR ON A HORSE.

That’s it. That’s the gag. It’s Char’s Zaku 2 somehow riding Boreus from Mythic Legions, integrated into a promotional image for the actual statue. And I think this is very, very funny, which will tell you things, good and ill, about me, in a way few other things can.

Char! On! A! Horse!
