offhand, if you want to give GW $9,999 (or 9,999 pounds, which is even scarier!) I think you should get free delivery, by the studio member of your choice, who will also trim the flash and maybe throw in an a new hobby knife blade so you don't hurt yourself.
For an extra 10 you can kick the studio guy where it hurts.

Working on someting you'll either love or hate. Hopefully to be revealed by November.
Play the games that make you happy. |

Hmm...
$10k USD to kick Gav in the nuts? Totally not worth it.
OTOH, if I could *knee* Tom Kirby, Muay Thai style, I'd have a chance of shattering a testicle (or two). That might be worth it...
Hmm...

For Tom Kirby... well I'm sure you'd have success if you started a donation drive on Dakka.

It's $20k USD. £10k GBP...
Still worth it?

Winning isn't important. It's the taking apart that counts! |

Well, it *is* Tom Kirby... And shattering his nuts means he won't be producing any more progeny...
As Asmodai notes, if we start a collection, it's no problem to raise the funds. But as a group effort, I'd be willing to give up the personal satisfaction of taking the shot in exchange for finding a group champion who'll drive them all the way up into his throat.

Isn't it a free-kick per customer?
Representing an entity, we could make some kind of machine that, while sentient (and for whom the miniature was bought), has as a main perk a "kicker"/roshambooer (i.e. big metal boot) with the combined force of Dakka, which would be about 1/1000 of a Norris. That would be enough to send planet Earth out of orbit, and hopefully it would put good Mr. Kirby a galaxy away from GW.

I'm going to regret asking this... But who's Tom Kirby and what horrible things has he done?
