I'm guessing you can't strip paint off Finecast resin?"<br /><br />"Er.. ah... er... I can't say anything about stripping miniatures. We can't say anything at all about stripping miniatures... we're not insured to talk about stripping miniatures."Andy Bartletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06683770320671028815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537071612815653912.post-25572950879284065042011-09-23T17:24:35.994+01:002011-09-23T17:24:35.994+01:00A friend and I thought of a new game - might post ...A friend and I thought of a new game - might post it on here sometime. It's called: GW Staff Battles! The rules are simple: go in and see how defensive you can get them by talking about topics such as 'stripping miniatures' or 'problems with finecast' or 'mantic games' or 'army painter spray' or, well, you get the picture! Then rank them on a table I will define in a spare moment over the weekend...Daveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01338536132702316924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537071612815653912.post-68527822727145972152011-09-22T05:43:32.104+01:002011-09-22T05:43:32.104+01:00I have always found GW staff to be a little bit ti...I have always found GW staff to be a little bit tiring. They're clearly employed for the level of energy they can project, but it really doesn't work on me. <br /><br />Your observations about them going the extra mile with older gamers probably runs counter to what most people feel, about the targeting of kiddies and their parents' credit cards.<br /><br />My more recent experiences with GW stores has been coloured by the fact that the staff all seem to creepily recognise me, even though I generally don't know who they are (and almost never go into the stores). Apparently some of them came to our club many years ago, before growing up and becoming unrecognisable to me. Others, though... I think GW are stalking me. :O<br /><br />Haven't gone into a store with my son yet (slightly younger than yours). That might be some fun for another day. :)Hoodlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507134198601519253noreply@blogger.com
