That really does not look like someone from the battle of all time. I don't imagine someone would run around the battlefield like that. One nick from a zombie and she's munching her former allies brains and don't even mention fighting on a tundra map, hypothermia anyone?

Agreed.

Except that's not the figure that the link leads to , this is

And hello we have topless figures! Deal with it!

Laughing Matter, I think they're talking about the cowgirl that Yodaking suggested, who is a lot more sexualised than the Eilan Sidhe. Nudity is not the same as sex.

Yes.

FWIW, I didn't buy any zombie packs when they were in stores. I thought the zombies did not belong with the other minis, and they were not suitable for the aesthetic of the Battle of All Time.

Just sayin'.

[ollie]

Yep, those zombies are very naked. You can even see under the skin in places.

[Arch-vile]

The Tomb Skeletons are even worse. I have to put them away before my mom sees them ...

Hey, I'll use anything, as long as it looks cool. I even think some of the Greek God figures I'm looking at for some of my Greek Myth customs have nipples or meat and two veg showing. Not what makes me want them, but hey, not a problem to me, and at least it's authentic.

I'm not partial to that mini either. We'll see what the future brings, but I hope at some point it's something that pushes some part of the mini envelope.

FWIW, there is a difference between Nudity and Nakedness:

Technically speaking, naked implies that a person is unprotected or vulnerable. It also describes something that is unadorned or without embellishment, as in the oft-mentioned naked truth. Nude, on the other hand, means one thing: unclothed. (Mentalfloss.com)

[G1shark]

Personally I think nudity is fine as long as it is in a art-form appreciating position, such as a man throwing a spear at an opponent, much like the Greek statues. It's when you get into certain positions and moods that the figures take that become suggestive is when it can become a matter of concern.

That said I'd play with anything, but given figures that are doing a certain activity during battle would make it rather hard to concentrate on combat. Figures like this would include pretty much anything from Warhammer 40k's Slaanesh themed army. Though I think the 5th chaos lord Matt Ward is by far more devious.

If I had children, I would be a lot more restrictive on what would be allowed to be fielded or viewed.

I always thought sense Angels are Kyrie, that Demons would have been Retchets in the Heroscape universe.
