It is always cute how people think they are destroying GW with one printer

The Plastic Wars Begin

In this meme masterpiece, we witness the eternal struggle between the mighty, brooding corporate titan known as Games Workshop and the blissfully smug 3D printer enthusiast. On the left, the GW figure is foaming with rage, screaming in pure existential horror: “I HATE YOU AND HOPE YOU DIE!!!” Meanwhile, on the right, the adorable chaos gremlin of the hobby world just smiles, holding a wrench in one hand and a resin printer in the other, replying, “I love not having to buy plastic at the price of silver!” This is hobby rebellion in its most distilled form—where “loyalty to the lore” is trumped by saving fifty bucks on a unit of resin goblins. It’s like watching a dragon shriek at a squirrel that just stole a single gold coin. The anger is real, the stakes are absurd, and the squirrel’s just vibin’.

Little Printer, Big Dreams

Let’s be real—it’s always cute when someone thinks a single 3D printer is going to bring down the fortress-monopoly that is Games Workshop. GW could sell you a spoon with a purity seal on it for $29.99 and still have people lined up around the block to buy five. The guy with the printer just wanted a budget-friendly Kill Team, but now he’s being treated like the final boss of intellectual property law. His only crime? Not wanting to mortgage his home for a Dreadnought. Meanwhile, his printer is happily humming away, spitting out bootleg minis while he snacks on chips and giggles. Somewhere in Nottingham, a lawyer just felt a disturbance in the Warp.

Resin Revolution or Hobby Delusion?

This meme perfectly captures the chaotic joy of hobby freedom versus the high cathedral of Official Miniatures™. Sure, your resin prints might have an arm fused to a groin and a sword that looks like a churro, but they were free, baby. And yet, no matter how many people embrace home printing, GW is still sitting on a gold throne of lore, loyalty, and limited edition Primarch busts. It’s almost heartwarming to think one guy with an Ender 3 believes he’s chipping away at that empire, one slightly-warped Space Marine at a time. But hey, let him dream—dreams are free, unlike that new box set with three models and a mortgage application. At the end of the day, the real war isn’t on the tabletop—it’s in the shopping cart.
