Not sure this thread has really descended into GW bashing. Seems to have been a balanced debate on the merits of GW\'s new toys and their place in the plastics market.

Look forward to seeing how Rackham do with their plastics. Their Abberation Prime looks interesting.

Overheard by a GW suit in search of a new and fresh idea: \"These things are such crap, we can\'t even give them away.\" GW suit: \"Just the thing I was looking for, let\'s give our WD readers a freebie!\"

I saw the abominable thing in question today, and I was amazed: how well the mould halves matched up!

I don\'t really want to bang on too much because GW make themselves such an easy target that one can easily slip into \'bashing mode\':innocent:

But as an extreme contrast, the French Magazine \'Ravage\' gave away a Rackham mini with it\'s first issue a couple of years ago. Here\'s an eBay auction for one of them...a very rare occurence I might add.

I don\'t think it\'s bashing to suggest that WD\'s current freebie is unlikely to become a sought-after collector\'s item.

The only thing worth doing with the dwarf is hide it amongst a pile of others and hope nobody notices it :D

Yes a fine paint job on the goblin indeed, so you can make a silk purse out of a sows ear after all. lol, and I was going to mention that added mushroom, now i\'d buy that ;)
You turn that goblin to the side though, and the shield is a foot thick and welded to his body.
Not my idea of a 2006 mini.:D

Why aren\'t people allowed to say anything critical of GW without it being called \'GW bashing\'? I have just been rubbishing an AlphaForge mini on another thread and there is no way anyone is going to accuse me of \'AlphaForge Bashing\' (Except for Supervike when he sees this post).
It is not illegal/heretical/blasphemous or anything else to say you don\'t like something about GW....or any other manufacturer for that matter.
IMO it\'s too easy cry \'GW bashing\' and by implication suggest that criticism is ill-considered and simply biggoted.
IMO, that is a shit dwarf....:D

Actaully I agree and said so (that dwarf is shit). Hmmm did I say so, now I can\'t remember! If I didn\'t I meant to lol.

To me it just seems a bit different to say those free minis are shit than going on about how GW don\'t do anything right, their palstics are crap and they eat babies (ok so you may not have used those EXACT words but you were thinking them! :D)

You sound like Mrs finn!!!:D

If you could be held accountable for thoughts I could be the world\'s biggest serial killer/adulterist/bankrobber etc:D

Actually, although I may come across that way at times, my mini room is virtually a shrine to Games Workshop. They only really annoy me on occasion because of the lost potential I see in them...what they could have been...Easy to be a back seat driver I suppose.:flip:
 
the GW free minis

I seriously dont know what everybody is bi$%^in about if you dont like them convert them to a different pose or add something to them I did so did Silent Scout mine might not be converted as much as his but I like him.And for those who really dont want theirs send them my way I\'ll have fun with them just PM me for the address.DD:idea::idea:

Hate to burst your bubbles, but they aint psycho-styrene dwarfs, these are DWARFS

Thats him at the bottom, also the drastik plastik orcs. You\'ll notice they had a variety of heads and weapon options, so actually GW have been doing multipart kits since the beginning.
