http://msdn.microsoft.com/events/hero/ Wow, just wow... And who could be their nemeses? The terrible open-source twosome, Richard Stallman & Linus Torvolds? An Anonymous Hacker (sporting a black hat)? Or how about the evil Overlord, Paul Allen?
So whats the problem with this? Companies are always giving away useless promotional shit to thier customers, at least they are showing a bit of humor and originality this time instead of just sending out another round of shirts or mugs.
I guess that's why Microsoft will never go open source, because apparently that is their super power: SOURCE FORCE!
This is really, really freaky. Although I was expecting figures for Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, Seamus Blackley, etc. But yeah, now I totally want action figures for Linus Torvalds, Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Shigeru Miyamoto, etc....
I see superman, green lantern, ryu, and the old dude in orange chinese clothes looks like he's from street fighter too, but can't remember his name The rest look like occupations
Ballmer with rampage action. That would rock! Paul Allen with accesories of all the stuff he owns. Steve Jobs with wacky action glasses and Noah Wylie clone.
LOL! Billy Gates can be Jor-El. A Fire Fox villain with add-on accessories is a must. Also, villains can ride in an Apache helicopter. And can we get some Battle Beasts in the form of Gutsy Gibbon, Hardy Heron, etc?? Seriously.
Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrright. I've got to give them credit for coming up with something new, though this is truly WTF? territory. I was seriously hoping for a Bill Gates or an XP-tan too.
Dammit, I was hoping for a Bill Gates action figure too. I'd buy one just out of spite towards Linux fanboys. And meh, no Windows 2000 figure either.
same here.. I'd imagine Bill with a Guitar Hero and piles of money, Steve with Sweating action etc....
