Is that set at all rare?  :eh?:

It is quite funny sometimes, what Facebook recommends you 'need'.

it looks to me the link is pointing out that the person who is Middle Eastern is being advertised a personal security service and airport security set. Quite racist of Facebook actually. This set sold quite often for super high prices a few years back. It typically sold this high only when sealed mint in box. I am actually surprised Geobra did not put a dark skin toned klicky as the target of inquisition in the set seeing all the other race elements in their sets. But I guess Geobra moved on to sexist sets now a days.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

:D yeah that's it, it's the Middle Eastern/airport security thing.

I don't see a lot of race elements as you put it - most of their robbers are white, for example.

That was my first thought probably not one of Facebook's best ideas to hack people off in that sort of way, it certainly does recommend some strange things can be quite annoying actually  ??? >:(

I used to point them out every time I find them but over the years I have been reprimanded oh too often. Only allowed to mention puppies, kittens, unicorns, ponies, type of subjects, you know......the important stuff.

I think it's an interesting discussion to have, but on the other hand we all read this forum for fun, not for political debates, so I can understand the lack of enthusiasm.

Actually, some of my best friends are puppies, kittens and unicorns.
