Most Glorious Grey Seer





Everett, WA

I was bored and watching Highlander TV series on Netflix when I saw a GW store in the second episode (during a montage). It got me wondering if anyone else has any "sightings".

Well, the most recent spottings have been in Halls commercials. There's a kid painting some Warhams with a few pots of open paint in this one:

Then this one has a Catachan in it:

Some people might just think it's a generic action hero, but I know what's what

Somebody at Halls likes Warhammer I guess.

In one episode of Home Hunters International, some guy (I think he is an acor) is trying to find a home for his kid who is going to university for art or something.

Anyways, they pick a place they have to completely renovate, but it also comes with a separate shack/shed/small building. At the end, when they are showing off the done renovatoins, they show this small building, and on a table is an imperial guard army in progress.


Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Not warhammer or GW, but wargaming... on the latest episode of Flash Forward (Flash Boreward), charlie the hobbit from lost was visiting his old professor who was building a diorama with really small scale historicals, like FOW sized but it wasn't FOW.

There was also a sighting in one episode of Morse too. A murder victim had a massive table full of Warhammer fantasy stuff. I can't remember which army now though... it was a longlonglonglonglong time ago. I remember it being on when I was unpacking my copy of Tyranid Attack

I think it was Enemy of the State that had a Leman Russ box and I think they show a desk where said tank was in the process of being put together in his sons(not his real son, an actor) room or something. I can't quite remember.

Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control. Information control. Emotion control. Battlefield control. Everything is monitored, and kept under control. Core has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control. All in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield, controls history. Core has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war... becomes routine.
