I actually went out to my local TRU to see what all the fuss was about
yesterday. No sign of this set or the rest of the theme. Is there a  scan of
the suspect picture online anywhere? If the picture is offensive, just
e-mail me the URL.


Can't find it now.
But I did see a picture somewhere on-line of the offending cartoon.

They were still in several shops in my area this weekend. Didn't try TRU though.

I suspect the whole alphateam theme might have gone down the pan, or at minimum undergoing a complete transformation
- the website as gone
- the theme designer has apparantly been 'let go'

Pity, as there were some interesting sounding sets rumoured for next year (cant find that post either! - I remember
there being an Ogal Submarine though)

Funny they haven't withdrawn the software game though - though that would have been equally 'offensive'

regards
lawrence
