That's a disturbing image right there, even without clicking on the link.

Great, just great. How am I going to be able to NOT buy a North Pole Penguin
Strike Force? My only consolation is that no doubt Beth's IAS will end up with
more of them.

North Pole Penguin Strike Force? NORTH POLE? Beth's Antarctic crew are going
to have all the Penguin Strike Forces; there's a permenent shortage of
penguins up at the North Pole, remember!

Still, cool figures! The "Penguin PA" looks intersting - penguins on
treads! I also like "Bubba the Snowgoon" with sniper rifle & hat on backwards!

Hey, this give wargamers an alternative to the usual Santa figurines
and/or nativity setup in the front hall.[1] Just set up a North Pole
game & leave it up for the holidays!

If Ezekiel Scrooge can hire third world mercs, then it's obvious that Santa
can import Antarctican mercs.

Too bad they don't have polar bears, though...

(veeeery big grin) Oh, come oh, anyone who reads Sluggy knows that Santa isn't
a good guy. I mean, look at "Santa" and "Satan"...how can that be a
coincidence?

Sluggy? Humph. If you want to read about the _real_ Santa, you have
to pick up the short story "The Toy Mill", and the novel "The Clause Effect"
by David Nickle and Karl Schroeder. Santa isn't just evil... evil is too...
nice a term.

Karl is the writer of the Hugo nominated novel Ventus, Dave is the author of a
number of award winning horror stories. Oh, yeah, full disclosure... they
happen to be friends of mine...
