I was actually talking about the Bostria Kuang Shi from Rose City Raid, but the Aussie one looks really cool too!
Well, a nice mini but I'm disappointed about the lack of the elf-moderatrix. I'll pass on this festively plump fellow. When my Defiance stuff arrives I will have a total of 105 unpainted Infinity figs. Not looking to add to the pile o' shame. For folks in search of a grievance, try cultural appropriation. Santa Claus* is an Anglo-Saxon cultural thing. Hispanic culture has los reyes magos. (Melchior, Caspar and Balthasar) So , there's that to get upset about. (<-- Hey, pouty face is orange. Lol. How apropos for the times.) ETA: the three of them would make a nice Haris fireteam too. *As portrayed by the plump and jolly Yuan-Yuan. Yes, other Germanic peoples have versions of it but this fellow is distinctly of the Anglo-Saxon sphere.
One, “that was a mild letdown, here’s why” is only a grievance in the vaguest sense that having a non-positive opinion is a grievance. A huge chunk of the forum is comprised of people complaining ad nauseam—have you considered going and trying to cheer up the folks in various threads complaining about profile changes or falling damage or tactical rocks or whatever? I find it interesting that a stated preference for how fat people are portrayed was somehow crossing a line for you and needed to be addressed this way. Two, appropriation doesn’t quite mean what you seem to think it does—and even if it did, the jolly red-coated fat man as we know it is a construct of and old Coca-Cola ad campaign and is a part of American commercial export culture anyway. You can’t appropriate it any more than you can appropriate the idea of happy hour or brunch. There’s a possible discussion of American business appropriating European folklore there, but it still doesn’t fit the working definition of cultural appropriation. Anyway, people have preferences about things. Sorry if that disappoints on occasion.
Why did I have to look at the Facebook website to see that preview?!? The new Raichu is 47.95 Euros, and a lot of the large TAGs are similarly priced. Between the bike and the stack of presents, seems to be easily a comparable number/size of parts, and then throw in a few euros for a pair of novelty socks. :shrug: The Stakeout event pack that I ordered for the Anti-Stress Jotum and keychain arrived today. Somewhere out there, there's a person excited to order this for the socks and the box artwork.
^^^And it's even poutier today. :D Yes, but you need 3 for a Haris fireteam...and I see that I somehow omitted that sentence from my post. Baffling. Will edit.
OTOH, Santa Rita would mean 5xBooty(stack or reroll duplicates at will). NB: Multilang puns and up to two rhymes now.
Nope, we are for both. Never pass out a chance for more gifts. Never. Even if the Santa Claus gifts are mostly clothes xD Santa Rita has a saying with rhyme, that translates into what you gift can't be reclaimed :p

A side note on the competition pack. I wonder if the picture is correct and the description is lacking what looks like a keychain (and perhaps the box behind the miniature which could be a sleeve set, but could also be the blister). But it is a nice pack anyway
That's the "small ITS event box", right? I'd love to see what goes into the ITS12 equivalent of this. Wonder when we can expect that.
