While many Trekkies are loving a new action figure set based on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Wil Wheaton is not one of them. The famed super nerd recently took umbrage at a new figure based on his most famous role – the teen prodigy, Ensign Wesley Crusher.
The action figure in question was part of a set depicting the main cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Released by MiniFigs.me – a web-based business that manufactures made to order LEGO figures as well as unofficial adaptations of popular pop-culture characters – the Wesley Crusher figure is depicted as a crying child, in stark contrast to the more stoic and determined adult figures around him. The MiniFigs.me site also features custom figures based on other popular science fiction franchises such as Rick and Morty, Red Dwarf and The X-Files.
Wheaton responded to the set’s release via a lengthy post on his personal website. Wheaton called the depiction of his character “insulting and demeaning to everyone who loved that character when they were kids.”
The irony that Wil Wheaton is defending his most famous role as not being a whiny little crybaby who irritated everyone in existence by complaining about it online does merit some consideration. Heaven help the next critic who dares say anything negative about The Big Bang Theory.

Imagine thinking kids actually liked Wesley. I watched TNG as a kid and I fucking hated Wesley, I always wanted to be either Picard or Riker when my friends and I played Star Trek. Wil Wheaton needs to hang himself.

Shut up Wesley.
Thomas Miller
That cat was pretty dope DESU

Well yeah, Spot wasn't a whiny little bitch and generally kept to his starship-flyin cat ass self

Michael Robinson
I used to feel bad for Wheaton, but then I found out how much of a cunt he is. He deserves every single bit of hate he gets.
Gabriel King
How has nobody posted this yet
David Rivera
He's basically a humourless twat with no humility. Any normal person would be able to laugh at their previous role and the truth behind it. But since its his legacy, he takes offense to it
Kayden Powell
*teleports behind you*
Elijah Morgan
No one deserves to raise another man's kids
Brody Morales
My thoughts and prayers are with you Wil
Kevin Bell
I'm so happy.
Alexander Carter
wow he can't even grow a half decent beard
Mason Lewis
His twitter is a goldmine. >NEW RULE: I'm officially over people saying "shut up, Wesley" to me, even in jest. From now on, I'm insta-blocking anyone who does that. He supposes that people are in an "organized campaign" against him that he calls "The Stupidosphere." Apparently he thinks that it's not entertaining enough on it's own to just make fun of him and watch him bitch and cry about it.
Joseph King
>Being mad at dumb toys made by a third party I could get being butthurt if Lego actually commissioned this but he's just embarrassing himself by whining.
Colton Wilson
Meh. With no facial hair or unusual skin tone, his figure has the easiest head to swap for something else.
Oliver Reyes
The head is optional
James Watson
>when my friends and I played Star Trek
Who drew the short straw and had to play Troi listening to you crying about your uncle touching you.
Gavin Walker
So he's bitching about nothing, who would've thought
Mason Wood

Fock off m8
Matthew Wood
So the Legos are just smiling the way he does nowadays. Whats the big deal.
Jordan Peterson
>70 quid for that
At least Games Workshop lets you paint and play with your figures after raping your wallet like that
Evan Parker
It's like he goes out of his way to make himself even more unlikeable in real life than Wesley ever was.
I'll never get why people buy expensive custom minifigs like these instead of just making your own with pieces from Bricklink.
Nolan Scott
My sister watched TNG only because she wanted to fug him.
James Jones
will wheaton was a mistake jesus 2018
Aaron Bell
you can think a character is a complete twat and still want to fug him, the 2 are not mutually exclusive
Oliver Moore
>wanting to fuck Wesley >when Riker is there radiating charisma
I just don't get women sometimes.
Henry White
I can't imagine a worse person to hang out with watching sports.
James Robinson
he seems like the guy to constantly point how silly it is grown men are chasing a ball like he's in any way being insightful or original

Felis Cattus, is your taxonomic nomenclature, an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature? Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.
I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations, a singular development of cat communications that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.
A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents; you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance. And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion, it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.
O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array. And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend, I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.

Oh god. That is just sad. And I say that as a Sup Forums user.

Lucas Gutierrez
>cries in real life about it, proving their point Wesley’s character was a whiny bitch and Wil needs to finally realize that. I’ve been rewatching the series, and episodes where Wesley is absent are infinitely better than Wesley-centric episodes.
Angel Lee
No he didn't, that's a shoop.
Noah Murphy

Jayden Cruz
Well plenty of weak metro sexuals/ soy boys types are into spending money to watch sports. To be honest I think its their only release they have with their consumer lifestyles. They spend money in sports like a foodie spends on wine.
So fucking this.
Samuel Edwards
How is this legal?
Liam Campbell
Wil Wheaton is a cringeworthy fucking manchild. I have no sympathy for him. All the leftist fucking mongoloid shit he has said? lol no. Nope.

Who made that decision???? Who was like let's make his lego dude a realistic whiny faggot ???
That person deserves recognition. Maybe even an award
Adrian Brooks
why is he always looking off to the side slightly, never directly at the camera?
Josiah Hernandez
the wedding was in nemesis
quark was cut from insurrection
Sebastian Anderson
It's a unlicensed product. The designers were probably fans having a giggle at a character everyone hated.
