Robin Williams, 40K collector? - Stuart - 12-08-2014

You've probably all seen the sad news relating to the passing of Robin Williams today. It might have been common knowledge to others but I hadn't realised that he had apparently been a collector of Warhammer 40K.

Prompted by this post by Wayland Games...

a quick search pulled up his Reddit AMA:

There are lots of other anecdotal stories relating to folk having encountered him at gaming stores.

Very sad to hear of his passing, he brought a lot of enjoyment to many.

yeah, apparently a big eldar fan or so i heard on a dakka thread.

Sad times, one of the few genuinely funny actors.

Massively into WoW too, along with a few other celebrities. Vin Diesel and someone whose name can be made from the following I am sore, which is quite apt.

Just the fact he named his daughter Zelda is a super-win Smile

It sort of reminds me about the story of the great Pagliacci.
