As usual the wargames industry is burying its head in the sand when it comes to new EU regulations

The worst of this is that REAL EU directives can be even more stupid – and they are not joking !!! |

Not all wargaming companies have been ignoring this trend. For example Games Workshop has actually been producing a range of "Hello Kitty 40000" games and models since the 1990's, though these are less famous than some of their less gender-neutral product ranges. If other game companies have not been taking notice of this business model, they only have themselves to blame.

With the EU's desire to regulate everything out of existence it is not that far off the mark. |

Doesn't re-issuing the kits in pink just reinforce those very gender stereotypes? |

God I am glad that I don't live in the European Union.Next with the current regime in Washington I am sure it will happen here. Rob |

Most of the negative stories about the EU are completely made up. |

I already placed my order for the new set of "Boy George vs Prince Cage Match 2013" figures. I intend to use only Revlon Cosmetics for paintwork and Binford Tools for assembly. |
