TSA Issues Warning: Call of Duty ‘Monkey Bomb’ Figurine Could Ground Your Flight.

A gamer’s collectible or a security threat? You decide — just don’t take it through TSA!

Heads up, gamers! 🎧✈️ If you’re planning to bring your Call of Duty: Zombies memorabilia on your next flight, you might want to leave that Monkey Bomb at home… unless you’re looking for a real-life mission failed moment. 😬💥

The TSA (Transportation Security Administration) has issued an unusual but very real warning after a traveler brought a replica ‘Monkey Bomb’ figurine through airport security. What happened next? Let’s just say, things escalated quickly. 🚔🧨

🐒 What’s the Big Deal?

For those not in the know, the Monkey Bomb is a mischievous little wind-up toy from the Call of Duty: Zombies game — it claps cymbals, makes noise, then explodes, taking zombies (and now, apparently, travel plans) with it. 🐵💣🎮

But here’s the issue: it looks way too real. The figurine is designed with wires, a fake timer, and a mock-explosive device — making it look like a mini IED (Improvised Explosive Device) on an airport scanner. Yikes. 😱💼

“It may look cool on your shelf, but not so much in your carry-on,” TSA posted in a cheeky reminder.

The toy caused a security scare, delayed flights, and ultimately got confiscated. ❌✈️ And while no one was arrested, it’s clear the TSA isn’t monkeying around with realistic-looking replicas.

⚠️ Important Flight Survival Tips for Gamers:

📌 Don’t pack anything that looks like a bomb, grenade, or weapon — even if it’s a toy.
📌 When in doubt, check it or leave it.
📌 TSA doesn’t care if it’s “limited edition” or “super rare.” 🙅‍♂️🧳
📌 It’s a collector’s item, not carry-on material.

🤓 Gamer Lesson Learned

Imagine trying to explain to TSA agents that the bomb-looking monkey in your bag is just a cool Easter egg from your favorite game. 😂 Not gonna fly — literally.

So next time you pack for a trip, maybe keep the Monkey Bomb safely on your gaming shelf and not next to your passport. 🎮✈️💼

This might be the first time Call of Duty made someone late for a flight instead of late for work. 😅
