We amuse ourselves

Today was kind of a crap day for work, plus I was on deck for watching the short people again today. Yorg.

Anyway around lunchtime I noticed that one of them had left one of their new Iron Man action figures on my desk so I started fiddling with him. I discovered to my delight that he was pretty decently articulated, so I posed him and took a goofy Instagram:

Tony Stark apparently does yoga.

Seeing as I had already gotten him into a split, I began experimenting further with his legs. Ended up bending him in such a fashion that called to mind Martha Graham's intense side leaning arabesques, so I looked up a couple of pictures for reference (primarily this one though) and fixed his arms:

When Tony Stark isn't saving the world he studies the choreography of Martha Graham.

Then things got silly.

And Michael Flatley.

And Bob Fosse

I had to knock it off because I had to go back to working, but I was having so much fun making Iron Man dance that I might do some more of these later. Course all I can think of now is maybe recreating this scene from The Birdcage with him:

Those photos made me laugh :D

Yeah the Fosse one continues to crack me up. I think it's because he's looking so fiercely into the camera. (I tell ya, though, it was murder getting him to not fall over like that.)

Next up:

do the same thing with Captain America, and then have the two of them end up in a clinch.

Then show it to Drew.

Hours of merriment!
