I'll echo others that the "everything-but-those-silly-wings" part certainly has potential.

Like the flyer very much

The Archaeopter has gone to the top of my 2020 shopping list. Adeptus Mechanicus were my first, and still my favourite, 40k army.

No? Quite obviously not.

Lead adventure: showing no humour since...forever...

"Holy IP infringement, Batman!"

[JamesValentine]

Ah crap.  Now there's gonna be two dozen people claiming I'm claiming IP infringement and twisting my words till mods start beating me with a stick 

[Lost Egg]

Ahh..but the AM flyer has chicken legs...so...yeah...

[Westfalia Chris]

Do we have to go through this again, guys? Please cut it out, all.

Whoa there Smokey; Jim got a little ribbing for missing a reference, and everyone else just seems to be joking. No smoke, no fire. You can put the extinguisher away.

That is an exceptionally good memory of the old Batman series! I mean, I loved that show as a kid but had no recollection of that chopper.

Regarding GW, anyone else noticed the Forgeworld Bloodbowl ogresses?    I have to say, I'm genuinely enjoying GW's recent commitment to including more female sculpts.

Yeah, I'm not old enough to know about the spidey copter

I reckon that flyer is two halves of two really good models, they just shouldn't be stuck together like that.

If we are to be honest, I think it's 50% an obscure reference few people got and to be honest, clearly isn't inspiration for the model. And 50% - no one can ever really tell when said person is being serious or not considering the nature of a large amount of their previous statements in this thread, including the perception that anything can be said and gotten away with in it.

Perhaps if folks were generally a bit nicer, less sarky, and more respectful, people's responses to them would be equally so.

As you say, "no smoke, no fire".

Where did you see those?
