Ended up dyeing a whole whack of popcorn to make a ground/moat . Used food colouring/sugar with popcorn painted with oil (so the sugar would stick and the popcorn would not shrivel).
ISO 100, 5.0, 1/13 sec. Taken on coffee table, lighting done by what little sunlight managed to peek through the cloud cover that day.
Had the idea right away when I read the challenge, was hoping to use lego men instead of dollar store toys, but I turns out I don't own any lego men. I wish I would have had a wide angle lens so that the two catapults shooting popcorn could have appeared in the picture.

One reason on this for the poor score is that it has poor lighting. A very good investment would be to get a cheap speedlight (an offbrand one would do) that you can use to bounce light off of the ceiling which will make a lot better lighting. Also some people may see the idea as too "childish", just cause lots of people are looking for crazy creative ideas.
