"Most Terrifying Gaming Miniatures (Final Round)" Topic

Another one where "none of these" and "no opinion" could have been usefully split.

Also, I'm not sure what "not my genre" would mean here. That you simply don't look at gaming miniatures ever?

I tried to run this backward. It began on "Horror" which is not a type of miniature wargame as I understand it. Probably "genre" would relate to that sort of RPG.

Evidently horrifyingly bad paint jobs weren't nominated.

Horrifyingly fragile to assemble?

Some miniatures disgust me, and I wonder what sort of creep the maker might be. But that's not the same thing.

This being evidently the last round, and no answer being truly reflective of my position on the question at hand (if treated seriously), I went with "not my cuppa."

Because the truth is that while none of these "creep me out," I do have an opinion, which is that no miniature creeps me out. And there's no choice for that.

Going with Spiders, though not for myself. My daughter has arachnophobia. Lots of people claim to have a phobia of something, but seeing someone with a real phobia demonstrates how people don't understand the meaning and implications.

My college roommate also had arachnophobia. He could not enter a room with spider in it unless he could see the dead body from at least 30 feet away. Years later, a billboard with a spider was put up on his 5-minute commute to work. He almost crashed. It then took him almost an hour to commute so that he wouldn't see the image. Real phobias control lives.
