Description
In the 2080s speed and volume eating, scoffing, became a competitive sport and extreme obesity became the desired body image for many Mega-City citizens. In retaliation to the perceived injustice of the food restrictions following the Apocalypse War, militant elements of the obese founded the League of Fatties believing they had an inalienable right to food, which they would take by any means necessary. Whilst an individual Fattie might seem a less than threatening figure, the first food raids saw massed wedges of obese activists trundling forward supported by their BeliWheels. With their layers of flab providing a natural armor against anything but the most lethal weapons, little could stop them once momentum was gained. Large numbers of Skinnies and Bones were crushed in the stampedes and from belly flops but, after the death of several Judges trying to protect a food storage facility, a crackdown was swift. Most Fatties were confined to special Fat Blocks, kept on strict diets for the maintenance of public order and their own protection until their weight fell below the 300-kilogram mark. Miniatures are supplied unpainted and some assembly may be required.
