I approve the General Upgrades Deck, as I was one of those suggesting it, since the Betas (even though I needed both Arsenal Decks anyways). I am quite confused about the Captain specific Upgrade, though: I believe more generic Upgrades (e.g. requiring Ancestor/M&SU characteristic) should be into that Deck, but the Upgrade with the name of a Henchman included in a Crew Box, should come together... "Oh, I just bought a Crew Box, but if I want to play those 5-ish General Upgrades too, I must buy the cards for the models of my entire Faction, including doubles of my Box" sounded quite bad some times, but "Oh, I just bought a Crew Box, but if I want to play my Henchman's specific Upgrade, I must buy the cards for the Upgrades of all the Factions" sounds somewhat stranger. There will be less doubles overall, and that's positive. This Captain thing is the only one surprising me Got what happened in the General vs Crew Specific Upgrades division, if it won't be the rule, I can live with it

Mercury isn't "just a performer". He is The Great Performer!

I couldn't agree more! It's just that this thread is not "It'd be cool to see a middle age, not perfectly fit female character too", but instead "Miss Ann Trophes looks sexist because... And the fact you produced her instead of a middle age, not perfectly fit female character is wrong, change this thing". These two approaches are very different from each other. I just think it's Wyrd's right to differentiate their minis, without being based on a constant threat of sexism charges every time there is the slightest possibility to fit one. The sexism argument is much more severe than the pure aesthetic preferences, it shouldn't be abused. And - I add- expecially not against Wyrd which, IMO, doesn't deserve such accusations at all.

Pretending a precise 50:50 male:female ratio in every possible ideal fraction you can isolate from the total range looks kinda compulsive, rather than reasonable O.o The real world doesn't work like that! The DNA has 50:50 gender possibility, but then it goes random! Some families have got 5 females and one male or viceversa, some countries have more male inhabitants, some more female. Will they need correction? Also, at which point of the production do you sign a clause which says you'll be bound to produce a representation of each existent human type, so that every existent human type will be able to strictly relate to one of your characters? Seriously? http://m.moviewavs.com/0053148414/MP3S/Movies/Simpsons_Movie/toughguys.mp3
