Why is her name "Ruby" instead of something like "Sapphire?"

      Holy shit, may be onto something. Do you think the people behind this movie could be autistic enough to hide a 40k reference in a movie title?

      His name is Roboute Guilliman. It didn't hit me until just a while ago how similar it sounds to Ruby Gillman.

        Does Robert Gorillaman also have a Mermaid fetish?

        It does sound like it's a reference, but that's such a random-ass thing to reference. Probably a coincidence.

          Players of the newer editions of 40k are wargaming equivalent of DnD fanatics; they make everything about 40k. However little sense it makes, knowing what kind of playerbase it is, the chances of the name being a reference are pretty likely. It's been a running gag to intentionally spell Roboute Guilliman, the Primarch of the Ultramarines, wrong like

          Does Robert Gorillaman also have a Mermaid fetish?

          mentioned. I could imagine someone in the studio thought of Ruby Gillman while thinking of the joke and coming up with a name simultaneously, and felt he was very clever and niche. It begins making more sense when you also consider the fact that she's blue, has superhuman powers, and is in line to rule a domain. In the lore, Guilliman ruled over what was called the Five Hundred Worlds, which became its own state while separated from the wider Imperium during the Horus Heresy. His genesons would continue to govern it to the later 40k period. So to summarize:
          >Ruby Gillman sounds like one of those misspelled Roboute Guilliman joke names.
          >Blue is a primary color in their character design.
          >Both have superhuman abilities.
          >Both have authority over a domain of some form or another.
          Too much lines up with the context of the average 40k fan for this to be a coincidence.

          This is kind of a tangent, but 30k, oldhammer, and epic scale are really the only GW games worth playing at this point. I recommend NetEpic Armageddon, Warmaster Revolution, 1st through 3rd editions of 40k, and finding a 30k scene that has zero tolerance for win-at-all-costs behavior. The folks around them are also very supportive of kitbashing and 3D prints so long as what you see is what you get, making them much more affordable to get into as long as you have an SLA printer or Ivan and Chang at hand. I've come across a few people that have a buddy with a printer who prints minis in return for covering the cost in resin used, which is most often cents at a time.

            Sounds stupid but believable. Crossover fanart when?

            >search /tg/ archive for gorillaman
            >also comes up often with girlyman
            I'm getting the sense there are multiple layers of shitposting associated with this guy.
