I love Team Fortress 2, especially the visual style, so when they started releasing toys of the characters, I had to start a collection.
I had planned to nab the whole team, but I may reconsider in light of THIS:
What happened? Well, I dared try to bend the thing's knee to put it in a pose where it could stand freely, as I had done with the Pyro figure I bought earlier, and the Heavy. Nary an ounce of pressure was applied and SNAP.
It was intended to bend, I can see that from the exposed hinge, but the thing's made from such cheap plastic, and the hinge's connecting "pin" so thin, that it couldn't take anyone touching it.
Not sure what to do about this. Can't really send it back to the vendor I bought it from as it was in perfect condition on purchase.
Hey, Valve? You out there? Is your console going to be this sturdy?

DevArt goes full evil.
I’m not going to rail about how material on the site is being scraped for use in AI Composites, or about how DevArt’s “protection” against it is a new check-box that you will have to manually tick for each and every image you’ve uploaded. No. Misuse of your work and DevArt incompetence are expected at this point. Once something is put online, that’s it; it’s no longer under your control. That’s the nature of the beast. You don’t like it; don’t upload content. What I am furious about is the deluge of AI composites flooding my feed, here. I see more of that crap than genuine new content, now. And to make it worse, DevArt has its own AI tool (https://www.deviantart.com/team/journal/Create-AI-Generated-Art-Fairly-with-DreamUp-933537821) which, while they absolutely-pinky-promise it will not cannibalise user content, is only going to exacerbate the problem. I’m now completely convinced that DevArt is no longer a site that serves artists in any capacity. Not only that; it no longer has any
Werewolf Wednesday Artbook
I've returned to Lulu as their print quality has dramatically improved. The first thing I'm peddling through their service is a collection of my Werewolf Wednesday pinups. (I was legitimately blown away by the quality of the proof copy I ordered!) It's now available here.
Password Retrieval emails.
Is anyone else getting a "Password Retrieval" email from DeviantArt over and over again? I was concerned that there was a security issue at play but I see that there's an option in settings to STOP such emails for 60 days, which itself is weird. Why would THAT be needed? What the hell is going on with the platform NOW?
