Are these really game minis though? They look fragile...
Maybe they're better described as 'figurines'... like Hummels for nerds.
Brush on Gloss, Spray on Gloss, Spray on Matte. I think I’d prefer spindly plastic to spindly metal. Easier to fix.I've never had an issue with it. I have a large toolbox with magnetic tape lining the bottom, and I magnetize all my bases. I've never had a miniature damaged during transport.
I don't think they're actually as fragile as all that anyways, especially once they've been varnished. They're plastic, not ceramic.
One of my favorite Blackstone Fortress minis was the eldar ranger with the long barrelled gun (not a sexual euphemism, I swear). My partner and I were always careful with the figures, especially that one. We didn't want to break it.
But all it takes is one unintentional moment of sloppiness. I was reaching across the board to get the dice. I was caught up in the moment and reaching to grab the dice quickly because I was on a good roll streak. As I did, my hand bumped the tip of the eldar ranger's gun. SNAP.
It wasn't rough handling. It was just an instant where I was reaching for dice and happened to unintentionally brush up against a tiny, spindly piece of plastic.
If the plastic is the sort that GW uses, yeah, I can probably fix a break with styrene model glue. If it's resin... not as easy or durable a fix, IMO. That soft rubbery stuff (Reaper Bones) is garbage, but harder to break.Brush on Gloss, Spray on Gloss, Spray on Matte. I think I’d prefer spindly plastic to spindly metal. Easier to fix.
