The premise is a battle between Santa and the Snowmen

From the look on his face "!", he must have just heard about the mid-term elections. Must take awhile for news to get to the North Pole.

Or maybe it's the PC movement trying to eliminate the jolly old elf from "Winter Celebrations" that caused that expression.

Ya know... I'm pretty sure some of those "Christmas Village" diorama buildings are 28mm scale (or close enough for government work). Hmmmm..... >Smiley

No way.  Look, it's 2006 and this guy is still using a magical sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.  He's no more going to replace his trusty muzzle-loader with an assault rifle than he's going to replace Rudolph with a Surefire. 

One thing's for sure - any guns of Santa's are of 18th century design (or earlier), but possess magical abilities.  I'm guessing they magically, instantly reload themselves, perhaps with a magical gun-dust more potent and efficient than any black-powder south of the pole.  And I should add that Santa is an old, old guy with loads of free-time in the off-season.  If he enjoys shooting at all, he's sure to be a crack shot. 

The question is, what sort of muzzle-loader is he packin'?

After Santa shot the Easter Bunny and the Leprecon, Santa replied, "Yeah! Yeah! Get sum!, Get sum!"
