I share the opinion expressed by some of the other collectors on this forum who dislike of the current trend of oversized, mountainous bases.
I believe that a toy soldier's base should be as natural as possible, so that it does not limit its versatility, like standing upon a tank or standing within a building.
I never liked the metal bases of BRITANS DEETAIL, or the over the top bases of 21st CENT TOYS,
even the bases of TSSD can be far too overbearing, giving "unnecessary height" to a figure that should match up better with the rest of your 1:32 collection.
Here's a solution that I've been applying to all my WWII figures that suffer from this problem.
Check out the photos and ask some questions?
