Willy Miniatures : new KS !!

[burgun824]

is her hand inside the elastic of her knickers?

C'mon man. Mid-game, between play "equipment" adjustment. It wouldn't be any different than seeing a mini that's adjusting his jock.

I NEED MOAR!

[Underdog]

Those amazons are incredible! I thought it would be the one team I would never play but now I guess not! I'll have to play just to use those figures!

[Mephisto]

Those amazons are really increadible Willy. The best ones in the market, so far I have seen.

@ bwood42: Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the US there is something called Lingerie Bowl, not sure that they were too much clothes on (and it seems to belong to mainstream audience, not to the creepy guy in the cellar):


Jokes apart, I can understand that some people don't like this type of models. If you don't like them, just don't buy them. I think everyone can give his own opinion as long as respecting the others, but don't bitch around, please.

Perhaps, instead of trolling around in this post and hence undermining WM, you could just open a new post and discuss about "half-naked female models in FF".

[Norse]

any objection I have to semi clad women has nothing to do with the clothing (or lack of) - it has to do with the poses they are in...

I would rather have a team of completely naked chicks that actually look like they are playing sports than a team of lingerie wearing strippers who are adjusting their thongs, squeezing their boobs, bending over and looking over their shoulder etc..

Shadowforge got the balance right I think.. I don't think his minis would offend many women (except perhaps actual Nuns ) - the style may not be to everyone's tastes, but they are definitely gridiron teams...

contrast that to other female minis, like Greebo's wood elves, and I'm pretty sure my wife would roll her eyes and walk away in disgust. they are quite covered up, but most of the poses remind me of certain establishments where men require a lot of $1 bills..

so, in summary: dressed "sexy" = good. Posed like a stripper = not so good..

[burgun824]

Did Norse say something? ....I was thinking of strippers.

[Gaixo]

Norse is spot on. I don't have any issue with the uniforms or the physiques of these Amazons, but the poses are a disappointment. It's unfortunate (for me, at least), because I would have been interested in a set.

I'll correct you--it certainly wasn't meant for mainstream audience. Wikiepdia confirms that it's a novelty spectacle that was a Pay-Per-View product (ie, you buy it just like adult entertainment from your cable provider) that aired alongside the actual superbowl's half-time show. As a football pseudo fan from the US, I had no idea what the thing was, and Wikipedia notes that it only ever aired twice and three planned years were cancelled--surprise, something competing with the most watched tv program in the world didn't do well!

So basically, it's appealing to the same sort of audience that buys Pay-Per-View porn (at least for me this conjures up elements of the "Creepy Guy in Basement" vibe, as in creepy enough to be watching the Super Bowl alone and too lazy to just go to an adult store or adult entertainment establishment and too out of touch to just use the internet, lol).

I agree with morsels pose point. Great poses but just not for bb, more something for a lonely evening in! Bb players should look like they play sports. Otherwise (and for different reasons) good figures in my opinion,

They have a full league now, with twelve teams. I've never watched (honest!), but I hear it's actually fairly compelling football. They got a bit of publicity recently because several of the NFL's replacement refs were from the Lingerie League.

[Norse]

probably explains some of the calls weeks 1-3..

I'm not sure of the history of the LFL, but it's taken very seriously now, as Gaixo says there is a formal league running in the US, and one about to start in Australia. I went along to an exhibition match here in Australia, and I can definitely confirm that the women playing the sport are damn good athletes, and the game is played in earnest. There were some pretty impressive hits put on, and the passing plays were pretty impressive. Also their get-up is not really 'lingerie', if it ever was, and while obviously skimpier than, say the NFL, their gear is reasonably practical. To me at least was a long way from anything vaguely 'adult entertainment'.

I agree with Norse, in that their gear I have no issue with, but I rather avoid 'stripper' poses. The first mini was great, the second not so much.
