Helpfully, B&Q now carry this range.<br />The bases are my standard 3x4cm. There is as yet no FLW standard - I just find they give the figures some additional stability. These are mdf, but some of my figures are based on card.Tim Gowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561988214539953646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-17698957324604702442012-04-05T18:25:02.644+01:002012-04-05T18:25:02.644+01:00Don M
