This is a scrunt that has been in space too long and become a Lunt (Long Scrunt)

There's some magical crown in some mario game that turns one of the mushroom people into a pretty princess. The original bowsette joke is that both Mario and Bowser get rejected by Peach, so Bowser puts on the magical crown and he and Mario start dating each other. It's a silly four-panel joke that spawned a million horny drawings, videos and, apparently, miniatures.

Yeah, it started off as a silly, chuckle-worthy comic that the internet ran into the ground repeatedly.

It's kinda wild how hard it is to find a non-titty monster tabletop mini of a woman. I've been shopping around for a new system to get into so I've been looking at a lot of model ranges and yikes.

I don't know about systems and games, but dark sword minis are pretty tame. Though they do seem to be very 80s style sculpt in that they all look like the cover of 2nd edition.

I got drunk and ordered a shirt during the height of it because I thought it was funny or something.

I finally wore it last year when I was moving because I didn't want to ruin any good shirts.

Admittedly, having disposable shirts is just good practice. I was doing ink printing the other day and foolishly wore my Brodie Lee shirt, so I had to wear my big puffy jacket to protect it.

I think I still have the issue of Dragon magazine this came from somewhere. It was rules for a squad of marines who would board space hulks and dance (in their specially adapted terminator armour) to... I think show their disregard for the genestealer menace? One marine had to carry the boombox, and he could put it down so the other marines could use their sweet breakdancing moves. Sadly I dont recall there being any pictures of converted figures or anything.

Not all Brits are JK Rowling, although some obviously are. 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 glaring.

Two vulnerable groups interests are going head to head on this one and it is hard to know where the lines should go. Then the Scottish/English politicians turned it into a constitutional arm wrestle so in the end everyone probably loses.

They're also not terribly good considering the prices they charge!

The technical aspect of the sculpting is competent enough but a lot of the poses are flat, bland and uninspiring.

oh not at all, but it was t just horniness. People wanted her in a Mario game, there was a convention as I mentioned previously, it's like a microculture sprouted off of the Nintendo fanbase around this one concept, it's weird.

That was part of the 80s design I mentioned. Most of their stuff reads like Keith Parkinson set writ to sculpture. It's a near concept, it all just kinda blends together.

The quality of the detail etc varies a bit as well but stuff like the underwater lines is legit cool conceptually and in terms of execution. Like those are a cool unique thing and they should showcase them on their website a lot more. I agree that there's a shitload of absolutely bland generic oldschool fantasy art type minis for a fuckin tenner+ a piece to wade through as well.

Also I don't agree on them being tame, there's multiple minis with straight up tits out, barely a lowcut loincloth. Like it's tame in that it's not super crass porn poses but there's def lovingly sculpted double ds with lovingly sculpted nips in there.

I think for all our collective sanity we steer the thread back on topic.

Horny miniatures are funny but kind of cringe. At some point it starts to intersect with the kinds of people that cover the common areas of their home with fetish art. There's nothing wrong with it in of itself, nobody is really going to care one way or another but it does start to get a little "exhibitionist" at some point I assume. Nobody really gives a flip if some grognard likes titty battleship women miniatures, but if you really don't care to see a Fletcher class DD with DD sized honkers in your tabletop naval sim game that's reasonable too.

Yeah, I don't really have an issue with their existence or people having them, but the idea of bringing them to a game and subjecting people unwittingly to that...Ghastly

I understand that you're only regurgitating lines that are extremely common in British media today. Nevertheless, you're wrong, and in a way that many of our trans goons would find offensive, but this is not the right place to have this debate. If you'd like to learn more about scaremongering, whataboutism, and the disgusting implication that simply being a trans person makes you dangerous to other people of your own or any gender, here's a time magazine article to get you started, I'm sure you can google "trans people sex predator myth" to find a whole lot more.

That reminds me of a story my dad told me, about my grandmother buying a new house, they went into the bathroom and it had this odd patterned wallpaper, which my grandmother (having poor vision) thought was charming. Then my dad looked closely at it and said "Those are naked ladies" and sure enough the pattern on the wallpaper was of tiny cartoon naked women in various poses.

Even in the 70's who would think that was ok?
