I was a little worried when Dr. Wondertainment showed up in the commercial, but I liked that you went out of your way to specifically note that it was an actor, and probably didn't represent the actual Dr. Wondertainment. +1.
Thanks. This idea came to me after watching a toy commercial, so I knew I had to put one in here. Having Wonderment show up sounded like a logical choice, but I knew everyone would hate it if it was actually him.
I read this after watching The LEGO Movie, during which I got the idea of a Foundation LEGO set. As a result, I cannot get the image of this as a LEGO set out of my head. However, I like the idea of the kindly Doctor W. casually lifting the Veil for the sake of making a children's playset.
It's been a while since I've seen a Wondertainment skip, and this is a really good one.
Also:
Due to the limited value of the information that can be gained from this experiment, Site 73 command has deemed the testing of these two items an unnecessary risk
Thank you. Thank you thank you thank you. I don't know how many SCPs I've seen on the site that do stupid shit like this, and it is very refreshing to have the Foundation say "…you know what? Maybe that's a bad idea!" and not do it. Thank you.

Funny story about that…
The real reason I did it was because I couldn't think of what would happen with those two.
I can very quickly see this becoming one of my favorite Wondertainment skips. This is so charming and almost magical in its presentation/execution, yet still clinical and scientific and exactly how I'd imagine the Foundation approaching this. I feel nostalgic for some playsets…

One thing though: did you mean to tag the GOC instead of the CI?
Well written Dr. Wondertainment products never fail to put a nerdy grin on my face. I think my favorite bit of this were the many deaths of the d-class figure, and the strange revenge moment where it broke the researcher's nose. I like to think that a bunch of D-class smiled at that moment without knowing quite why.
Also, this occurred to me later on yesterday after reading this: a rat tripling in volume could still land within square-cube tolerance for a rat. It might not be a healthy giant rat, but 3 g-forces worth of illusory mass (the best analogy we have to actually tripling a creature in size) is considered well within safe limits for both jerk and sustained acceleration. Did you maybe mean tripling in dimensions?
Actually it would be equivalent to 1.44g forces, because the bones would have twice the surface area.

I can feel the Wondertainment in this one. I love good Wondertainment articles, so you have earned my upvote.
I like this article but feel the testing logs are not the least bit necessary. Like at all. The advertisement is enough. Neutral.
Living the dream, or dreaming the life?
Personally, I felt exactly the opposite; the commercial I could take or leave, but the testing logs were a highly entertaining read.
