Just tell GW you scuplted the models out of melted down GW sprues

So I'm guessing this would not be allowed in a GW store then? Unless GW started selling LEDs.

It's from the GW homepage today BTW.

I'd say a troll, actually.

Well I was actually being serious with my original post. The LED Land Raider is not 100% GW, the title of this thread is, "GW Store 100% GW model only rule - ANY company product banned from in store use." And I'm pretty sure quite a few of the showcase models featured on the GW site are not 100% GW, especially the bases. I was also responding light-heartedly after being insulted and you had to join in.

GW are perfectly within their rights to say yes or no to anything in their store, they can refuse an official model if they want and can refuse to serve anyone without reason.

And just as GW has the right to make in store policies every customer has just as much right to shop or play elsewhere. There is way too much moaning and complaining about Games Worksshop, I wonder why anyone actually plays if they hate them so much.

inflammatory dribble?

In what way?
If you find my Land Raider post offense then please report it to the moderators and I will discuss it with them. But is this entire thread not just another moan at Games Workshop?

Anyway, OT;
We were discussing 100% models. If you field a Dreadnought on a base from another shop it is not 100%.
Yes this is the extreme, but if the rule is 100% then that is the extreme. The Land Raider pic in my post is not 100% because it has the LEDS making it about 99%. Otherwise my Ork Land Raider is 100% with it's fishfood pot Deff-Roller, after all the actual Land Raider is 100% GW. But no, that model is not 100% and I accept that.

I understand that people can get very defensive about models they have spent money and time on but GW is a business.
Personally I think that any reasonable model will be accepted in store if the player has the sense and common deceny to approach the manger first and ask permission.
