Literally dont see that happening anytime again.
Games Workshop used to give whacking great big swords to lonely nerds who spent hundreds of hours painting tiny little toy soldiers… or was it for winning games of toy soldiers? Either way I don’t think they hand out swords any more.

On reflection that is probably for the best that they don’t. They do have some nice weapons on display at their head office. Even some movie props used in LOTR. Worth a visit. The restaurant at the visitor centre is busy at lunches on weekends though.

Do you think it might be to do with dangerous weapon legislation? Doesn’t seem entirely safe to let just about anyone manufacture, distribute or buy weapons. Perhaps that is a bit too authoritan of me to think tho?
