ASK ME ABOUT HOW SCOTLAND'S PROPOSED TRANS LEGISLATION IS DIVISIVE AS HELL BECAUSE IT IS SO SWEEPING THAT IT COULD BE POTENTIALLY ABUSED AT A TIME WHERE THE LACK OF SAFETY FOR WOMEN HAS BEEN SO GLARING

Pretty sure I have a couple of these in my parent's attic. Or maybe a slightly later version, the light sabres were bright red plastic that slotted in along the back of the arm. This one looks extendable?

Yah that's the old one who doesn't actually match the 40k aesthetic.

Playskool actually puts one out in Heroic Proportions but idk if he's Bobby G size:

Since I'm a horrible person, I made a joke about "Thunderhawk" instead of "attack helicopter."

I really liked GW's wording of the question, really smoothly done.

For some reason, I didn't think about nerds going crazy about this.
And why did they white out whatever they had written in the OP image?

There were a ton of other questions, I hope enough people ask for WHFB that something comes of it.

They are losing their poo poo because one inclusive question near the end raises the possibility that an Authority Figure acknowledges something they don't.

The best thing about the outrage over that survey question is that if you've spent enough time in GW stores, let alone at the Nottingham HQ, the Other these people hate was embedded all along. GW has long been a 'safe space' for all manner of people who haven't always been accepted by society. At least, that's the experience I've had as an outside observer.

Hopefully these fuckers will be pissed off enough to just leave the hobby once the planned :females: minis start to become more prevalent.

To realise that would require self-reflection/awareness, they're angry cishet white boys who desperately want to be oppressed.

Fingers crossed GW's new push for better representation/inclusiveness pays off, we could use with those sorts loving off forever.

I, too, experienced the pain of having the offensive line from my High School's football team beat me with my AD&D books while singing The Internationale in close harmony. :(

What can say, I enjoy "attack helicopter" as a joke. Only did it for the screenshot, though. I want GW to take my bitching about rules seriously! Wonder what poor idiot will have to sift through those free form answers.
