Major millions adopts a military like theme, but it cannot be described as militaristic. The military theme is evident due to the presence of an army Major, a battle tank, a war plane, a battleship, rank medals, an ammunition box, a classified letter, field binoculars and a Major’s hat.
The military paraphernalia is not necessarily mean looking. The military symbols in use all look playful and rather soft. For example, the warplane has a bewildering smile and drops gold coins instead of lethal bombs; the battlefield tank is manned by a flummoxed-looking soldier and instead of it shooting bombs, it shoots flags.
The military theme is fused with a money theme, and it is evident from the sound effects. During the military band tune, you will hear the unmistakable sound of a cash register. The warplane also drops coins instead of WMDs.
