Nobody even knew they really existed until Raven Concealment called ’em on it.’
Just goes to show, nothing is sacred and nothing is secret. If you’re a douche-waffle, someone will eventually call you on it.
Not saying this prime specimen of warriorhood is a douche-waffle. He looks harder than woodpecker lips. Just saying, Ninja Force 17 is out there. We haven’t seen anyone this bad ass since Dog the Bounty Hunter gave up his training billet with CAG.
Tactical Fanboy: Ninja Force 17 has been compromised.
So it seems that Monster has expanded their Rehab line past the original Tea and Lemonade Arnold Palmer-esque flavor to include Green Tea*. I’m a big green tea drinker, so I had to snatch up a couple of cans the moment I saw it at the store. It has a pleasantly fruity flavor that pairs well with the tea, although it seems a bit sweeter than its predecessor (no doubt thanks to the acai berry, goji berry, pineapple juice, coconut water, and prickly pear also listed in the ingredients). It’s also 10 calories and 4g of carbs per serving [about 2 servings per 15.5 oz can], non-carbonated, and the “Rehab Energy Blend” gives a pleasant, long-lasting buzz without a major crash. If you’re ever looking for a light pick-me-up, Green Tea + Energy isn’t a bad choice.
*There’s two additional flavors of Rehab, Rojo Tea and ProTEAn, that I still haven’t seen in stores.
Jeremy Horton of Tennessee-based Horton Knives put up a few pictures of his latest creation a couple days back (on Facebook). As
New Jeremy Horton folder: as you can see, Jeremy is a man who rarely misses a manicure.
usual, it looks bad ass, and as usual the work looks to be imminently suitable for EDC (Every Day Carry). Just out of curiosity, what do you guys out there use for EDC? Gun, knife, keys, surgical gloves? Condom, nail file, OC spray? Whatcha got?
If you’ve been watching TV recently, there’s a decent chance you’ve seen this commercial about the upcoming film ‘Red Tails’:
Pardon me if I’m wrong, but is that a dubstep “song” (the term “song” is used loosely here) playing over images of WWII fighter planes? I don’t know about you, but I had to rewind my cable (thank you, DVR!) when I first saw this just to make sure I wasn’t crazy. Don’t get me wrong, from the other trailers I’ve seen this current iteration of ‘Red Tails’ looks decent with lots of pretty special effects, but dubstep seems, I dunno, kinda out of place in a WWII movie. Well, I guess that’s what you get when the beast that spawned Episodes 1 through 3 handles the Tuskegee Airmen.
*sigh* George 'Freaking' Lucas
Red Tails releases in theaters January 20th, 2012.
We can neither confirm nor deny whether Dalton Fury based the Modern Warfare 3 Sandman character on Richard “Swingin’ Dick” Kilgore, though no one who knows them both can deny that William Fichtner sounds a lot like Swingin’ Dick. (Fichtner was the voice of Sandman in the game, if you didn’t know.)
Games, like movies, have some great one-liners and scenes. Just to satisfy TFB’s curiosity, what are your favorites from MW3?
Sandman, from Modern Warfare 3. Many people aren't aware that he was actually on leave and playing quarters with cheap beer alongside Richard Kilgore the night before he was tasked with Operation Kingfisher.
Here’s a bonus pic: Lego Sandman.

So anyway, there’s like 40,000+ lines in the game. Any of them seem particularly cool to you?

The images below are roughs made by GWA out of raw materials, so it’s not an exact portrayal.

First though, a picture of girls in High Speed Gear Inc. gear, courtesy of Kevin at Advanced Outfitters.

As you’re aware, we’ve been doing the 12 Days of Tactical Christmas along with Soldier Systems Daily and the BOLO Report (today was Day #9, in case you’re not paying attention). There are others out there though, like the bad ass Dalton Fury “Kolt Racer Raynor” prize package, but that’s already done. You know what you can still get in on though? The 1MOA Solutions 1047 giveaway. According to the Mad Duo, it’s still open (though not much longer). Better get your ass moving and get the pictures submitted. Hell, some of you (especially you grunts) can probably do something really epic despite the lateness (and darkness) of the hour.
Art of Manlinesshas republished their 30 day guide to being a better man (and frankly, with just a little modification it would work pretty well for females). You should check it out. (FYI they are also on Facebook.) If you aren’t subscribed to AoM, you oughta consider it.
Tactical Fanboy recommends: The Art of Manliness
Take the advice of Art of Manliness and start the year by attempting to square yourself away.
It’s Winter and (mostly) everybody loves Star Wars, so why wouldn’t there be a hoodie based on Chewbacca, Han Solo’s loyal Wookie partner? It’s made from 100% faux Wookie fur (polyester), with an embroidered ammunition sash. Sadly, the hood doesn’t feature Chewie’s likeness, but there’s a hat that fulfills that role quite nicely.
Happy New Year, everybody! Sadly, it looks like us here at TFB will have to start said year off with a story about a denial of Second Amendment rights. Well, digital Second Amendment rights, anyway. It looks like M$ is withholding any additional sales of Firearms-like items for your XBL Avatar starting this year. This news comes directly from Epic Games Community Manager Will Kinsler. Since Epic is known for their games involving tons of bullet-shooting, rocket-launching, acidic-goo-spewing weaponry, there’s little reason to doubt Mr. Kinsler’s word, even without an official confirmation from M$ themselves. Luckily, if you’ve already bought one of the targeted Avatar items, you’re grandfathered in, so wield those Lancers and Hammerbursts with pride!
For Day #7 we have Triple Aught Design Shemaghs. Manufactured from long staple cotton, the TAD Shemagh has their mean T-Skull logo embroidered right into the pattern.
Also, don’t forget, today’s winners as well as every other winner, will receive a 2012 Tac Girls Calendar. (Just the calendar, not any of the girls)

The Mad Duo has great hope for, and grave concerns about, the upcoming GI Joe Retaliation movie. The original article is over on Under the Radar, a further explanation of just how keenly they’re watching this is on Breach-Bang-Clear.
Tactical Fanboy: "Roadblock" in the upcoming GI Joe sequel.
We hope for their sake the Rock and Bruce Willis get this right. Hate to see what would happen if the Duo lost their temper.
