"Woah, He Made the International Sign of the Doughnut"
I love that they thought it was a good idea to make a weird collector trading card set into a movie, and this wasn't even the first time (Garbage Pail Kids, 1987). In 1996, after the success of his B-Movie docudrama Ed Wood, Tim Burton decided to tackle the SCIFI B-Movie genre with Mars Attacks!. The movie is a complete mess, and the special effects have not aged well, but I love it. It is over the top, with an ensemble cast of Who's Who in the early 90s destroyed in the most hilarious ways. This made it a fun left-field pick for this year's Halloween mag.
To commemorate the invasion of Earth what better way to remember it than a Martian War Rug Mag. If the Martians were to succeed in destroying us they would be selling these trinkets on their new blue/green colony. Adorning the mag are flying saucers, ray guns, robots, Martians, a nuclear bong, the release of the movie and the international sign of the donut.

THE MAGAZINE
The mag themselves are commercial Bulgarian steel reinforced slab side polymer mags. These are not only great canvases to work on but with their steel reinforced feed lips and front/back locking lugs they make for great all around magazines. Our crew has used these mags in different classes with some choosing to alternate these between their “go to” steel magazines. The artwork is on both the left and right side of the magazine separated by a black front and back spine and finished off with an RD/ MAG LADS engraved floor plate.

*Note that the magazine designs will vary slightly in color due to inconsistency of the polymer dye. They will also change color and patina with use. This is caused by the introduction of oils produced by your hands. All magazines will be shipped in a plastic bag once burned for those who want to keep your magazines NIB. The Floor Plates will have some oil on them to prevent oxidation but it is recommended to add some more oil sporadically to prevent further oxidation/ rust depending on your area’s climate.
