The most amusing comment I ever heard about voting systems was when I worked in Switzerland for 6 months in 1989. One of the last cantons who did not yet have voting rights for women were having a referendum about it. One of the TV-channels interviewed a woman in that canton. Her answer was that she was in two minds about the whole thing. With male only votes she could tell her husband and son how they should vote, with female voting rights she thought that har husband and son might decide to make up their own minds and tell her that she could/should use her own vote instead of telling them what to do .... / Robin For the non Swiss: A canton is roughly equivalent to one of the states in the US. They are a LOT smaller but they have roughly the same relation to the confederation. For the interested reader: LINK

Wow, you guys are still beating to death the wrong issue and this rambling discourse on politics is entirely weird in a forum dedicated to model-building. The point is that the so-called "Christmas Bonus" is weird and, as I said before, leave it at that and feel free to discard anything that you find offensive in the box. Now everyone take a deep breath and get back to the topic of building! Anyone not interested should find another appropriate forum.

Like the cartoon tanks, someone at Meng has an eye for satire and caricature. If anything the figure is as much a caricature as the Santa Claus in the Sherman. So it would be fun to have one modeled maybe falling off the tank (or being pushed off) all the while looking quite ridiculous. I might get one just because the figure looks so ridiculous. A little satire and a little fun. Maybe get one of those busty tank girl figures to be doing the pushing

I guess it would not be very PC of me to say that I like busty tank girl figures?

Above the waist he's wearing his uniform but below the waist he's dressed like Dr. Frankenfurter from Rocky Horror. Add another non-PC vote for busty tank girls turning wrenches.
