What I don't get is why they announced this in the newsletter. If you just sent the newsletter to me, I'm clearly subscribed!

Yeah I would be dead chuffed to win one of these, it seems a bit harsh that the competition is literally open to the RoW except Oz...
Luckily I don't live in Oz...

"The States" is part of the entire statement "The States and Territories of Australia", it's not referring to the United States.

Possibly some law from Oz preventing it I'd imagine.

Someone emailed GW about their golden ticket contest and that was pretty much the problem. It's not that it's illegal, but rather that each state has different rules and to run a contest like this you need permits, and hired an intermediate who can ensure it's legal...and in the end it's a big, expensive headache so they won't do it.

IF I win I'd sell it straight away. While it's a nice model I'd rather have the cash, probably buy some FW stuff with it :P

Reckon I'd get it pro-painted, then raffle it off for Great Ormond Street.

Somehow that doesnt stop countless other companies.... (cause its BS)

Hell's Bell's, Now I need to subscribe to a newsletter. :)

But what weapons to choose? I think, (IF I were lucky enough to win), I'd probably go with the Laser Blaster or the Volcano Cannon. Maybe the Melta, idk. Either way definitely the Gatling Blaster and probably the Laser Blaster, but that Volcano Cannon...

What would you choose?

I'd go for the Gatling blaster for sure, simply because it looks so good, but yeah the choice for what to put on the other arm would be hard as the Laser Blaster, Volcano Cannon and Melta are all good options and I like the look (even if they'd get much less use) of both the Power Fist and Chain Fist too! Arrgghhh. Awesome prize that I'd love to win, even if I have no idea where I'd put it once assembled.
