I don't like plastic figures so naturally I've bought some.
20mm isn't my thing, so the plastic figures are of course 20mm and I don't need another tricorn army, so they're obviously GNW figures.
EB is not just the OOHO cult leader he's developed some sort of mind control!

Real men stick them together by melting the surfaces with a darning needle jammed in a cork and heated in a candle flame.

Actually I do recall reading somewhere (Plastic Soldier Review?) that new specialist glues were available. I think the real challenge is finding out which glues work on which plastics. And then figuring out which manufacturers used which plastics.

Because I like making things difficult for myself I've gone for the Zvezda 'super-sized' 1/72. They seem to have mostly been discontinued which was part of my reasoning because that will force a finite end to my buying :) I think they're the best sculpts and the idea of irritating EB with aggressive Swedish pike was too good to resist. :evilgrin:

All I can think is that Covid 19 has mutated into a brain eating parasite and affected many members of this forum. A world where people are buying not only 1/72, but plastic 1/72 and then it gets worse, 1/72nd plastic endorsed by EB is more scary than Trump running America.
