One of these things is not like the others

Today, Corvus Beli showed off the miniatures for the "spec ops" special campaign characters from the upcoming campaign book "Campaign Paradiso".  Unique, elite members of each faction's forces, they represent the best and most badass the Human Sphere has to offer.


And of course, the lone female figure is wearing a crop top and posed ass out, hand on hip, while her male counterparts are in various stalker/action poses.  Oh and she's wearing combat heels.  Because of course she is.  It's a shame too, because they're all great sculpts.  At this stage though, all I can do is sigh and shake my head.

More pictures after the cut.

Sexism in miniature - The worst of Infinity

Wargames and wargame miniatures have a problem.  It's a problem shared with roleplaying, video gaming, comics, and every other form of media aimed at the young male demographic.  It's an old problem, heavily entrenched, and one that is almost guaranteed to start scorched-earth level flame wars.

What the hell, Corvus Belli?
The problem being that wargame miniatures are, generally, sexist as all hell.
