From my perspective it arose from discussions in loc.au of the new
"coming soon" leaflet which has a blurb about the Action Wheelers and how
these were for boys. This led to varied items of discussion including
the behaviour of small boys, which led me to ask how other parents handled
the Lego gun issue which obviously is not merely a local Australian
conversation point, hence the cross-posting to lugnet.general.

I haven't read the female form mini-fig thread and haven't seen any of
the minifigs in question. But as the mother of a 4 year old, I have no
problem with tasteful depictions of the female form in Lego. Whether
what you're referring to fits the description of tasteful is an exercise
left to the reader.

Don't read here and won't be, but agreed.
