[SG] 15mm based Re: (GZG) Figure base

If you're worried about dumping them out, but doesn't the magnet at least keep
them from shifting if the box is bumped?

It depends on the strength of the magnet and the surface area of the washer. I
made the mistake of transferring my 15mm Traveller figures down here in boxes
with magnets holding them into the box. As a result, I have a lot of
repainting to do...

As for shifting them from the occasional bump, I have a lot of my figures in
tables with shallow shelves. The tables are Pier 1 end
tables, two of which back-to-back form a coffee table. They get bumped a
little bit, and the 15mm WW2 figures stay more or less upright, but some of
them have been jostled around. The 15mm Traveller figures haven't had that
problem, but they have bigger bases. Likewise my 25mm figures haven't had a
problem at all.

I'm coming to the conclusion that for 25mm figures, fender washers and magnets
to hold them in place work very well. Likewise, my 15mm Civil War figures
mounted three to a metal base work well. For individually mounted figures,
they don't work as well for 15mm.
