I try to translalte as well as i can :


Will Chapman, 40 American informaticans from seattle- since his childhood affinity with the lego universe, has expanded without a question the lego range. At the suggestion of his eldest son the former Microsoft specialist developed partly a few millimeter weapons such as millimeter magnum pistols and guns.

Meanwhile, chapman has expanded his worldwide toys equipment for a hand grenade swinging German and figs that remember of islamists.
Much to the anger of Lego "children should not be confused with modern warfare , that is not part of our universe," said spokeswoman Charlotte Simonsen.
Legally lego can do little against "Osama bin lego" figs. Also muslims thinkers protest against these figs.
Lego fan chapman said "we have so much to do in the meantime my wife and children help at the last touch and packing."


Sorry my english is really not good :) ;)

MOD - I'd remind everyone that only BA Forums Staff are permitted to post in the Official Announcements forum. I am willing to let this thread stay open, particularly if it means member providing another translation to this article.

Based on the translation provided by Cp. Hawkins, it would appear this is simply a general article about BrickArms. True, they do mention the "White Bandit" situation, but given that was news of a sort and, for better or worse, is a part of BrickArms' history now, they'd be remiss in not mentioning it. The rest of the article seems fair and accurate in its description of BrickArms in regards to its products and mission.

I'm very glad this is in the newspaper. It means Brick Arms is getting more publicity and the company will grow.

Thanks for the translation! Under the pic of the Rick Deckard fig does it say "Chapman's signature figure"?
