I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don't hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don't even use.

Basically as a grown man... Warhammer.

I love Games Workshop games and the universes, but assembling, painting, putting together an army and finding time for a game is just beyond me. So I have more than a few boxes of good intentions in the cupboard.

I love Games Workshop

It just struck me that I've never heard a fan say that before. It's always "I love the games, but hate GW's cash gouging/trigger-happy legal team/handling of new editions". Have they gotten better in recent years?

No the company is still as money grubbing and manipulative as ever. But I read the novels, I play the videogames and I love their creative works.

They make a great product and then be evil.

I had a starter set as a kid and only glued them together, never actually played with anyone. Glad it stopped there.
