I started poking through the various links, ‘cause hey, shiny new almost!40k minis, what’s not to like?
My god.
So, Wargamer Exclusive offers minis of the Sisters of Battle. I love the Sororitas, and was curious what they’d have. Oh, look! They have a Sororitas with two chainswords! This’ll be badass!
As it turns out, asses are involved. Just not in the way I’d hoped.
That’s not a Repenta. I checked. That’s being sold as a standard Sister of Battle.
I respectfully submit two observations.
1. That is not a Sister of Battle. That is Slaaneshi cultist, dressing up as a SoB, either for giggles, or in an attempt to infiltrate the ranks of the actual Sororitas.
2. She’s not wearing pants. That’s an anal hook. The Daughters of the Emperor do not wear anal hooks as part of their standard wargear and I cannot fucking believe I just typed that sentence.
So, ladies and gentlemen – what the everloving fuck is this?
Apparently someone out there has even less understanding for Sisters of Battle than Game Workshop does… That’s a new record.

Also apparently someone who hasn’t had the talk about when it is and isn’t appropriate to share your kinks.
The Archon enemy from XCOM 2. He doesn’t have legs, but I’d argue he’s still pretty empowered.
With empowerment like this no wonder they’re the greatest threat that humanity has ever seen! Now this is an enemy that people will want to get to know.
By filling up your special attack meter, you can perform the “Medaforce” attack. In Medabots: Girls Mission, you can do a “Medaforce Burst” by filling it up to 200%. Additionally, while performing the finishing blow with it, a special command window appears.
By successfully inputting the command on time, you can perform a “Hyper Finish” that blows away the clothes of the opponent. Each girl and Medabot have their own special scenes for this feature.
The “Ogre Maxim” is a feature that vastly increases a Medabot’s capabilities. This can be used once per Robattle, and the lower the points for parts are, the more effective and longer the effects of it becomes.
The Ogre Maxim increases parts abilities, shortens cooldown time of the parts, and also incerases the Medaforce Gauge. Using this system can turn the tables of the battle.
Medabots: Girls Mission Kabuto and Kuwagata will release in Japan on March 10, 2016.
For those not aware, Medabots was a cute game for children that was adapted to manga and anime from the 90s-early 2000s. The anime was localized for English speakers by Fox Kids and there’s a significant English fan group who campaigning to get everything localized and Nintendo is re-releasing the games that did get localized on the Wii U
Now, before the comments section gets flooded with outrage about creative freedom and this is a Japan only game, I’d like to clarify a few things:
While it is a Japanese game still owned by it’s original publishers, it’s not being created by it’s original developers (who basically got cut off in 2010 due to business restructuring)
Everything suggests the original developers felt the franchise was appropriate for everyone and they’d love it to get localized, it’s just technical and resource allocation issues that come with having multiple companies involved – not “cultural differences”
This is really not “a Japan thing”. Anyone who was a Thundercats fan as a child and had the misfortune to pick up a copy of Wildstorm’s comics knows what I’m walking about.
Neither of these are fan productions or porn parodies, these are licensed products of children’s entertainment which apparently felt softcore porn was a suitable addition.

Can I just say how pleased I am with the evolution of the costume of Ahsoka Tano from the Star Wars television series? I mean, it went from this:
to this:
and now, in the newest series, to this:
I mean, obviously there’s still a lot of improvements that could be made, but it’s still a vast improvement from the tube top and mini skirt she started in.
That is some welcome progression!
I’d say the fact that Anakin never helped Ahsoka out with her outfit was a sure sign that he was not ready to take on a Padawan learner.
