Mr. M's Adventures
Wowie! If I were in Gigantic Army, I'd hop into my own mech alongside my best friends Yoshi and Luma to take on the Ramulons. Yoshi would surely have a special mech capable of shooting eggs, and Luma would shield us with magical star power. It would be a Fantastic adventure full of action and fun! And after a long day of fighting, we'd unwind together with some delicious mushroom pizzas. Haha!
