    I have my 18 inch figures on top of my armoire and when I came home last night, 4 of them had taken a dive. Luckily, the only one that fell off the armoire was Pinhead and he landed on my bed. This shit is getting to be a pain in the ass. Thinking about drilling a peghole in the feet of some of them so I can use a stand. Anyone ever do that? It won't fuck up the figure will it?

    I've only drilled peg holes in regular size figs, but it's always worked great. Then I've attached them to wooden bases from Michael's craft stores. Well, I did drill all the way thru the foot of one, but it was easily fixable.

    Peeker swears that Elmer's glue works great, but I don't think I'd use it on furniture.

    Elmers will NOT damage the figs.

    and it's a good thing that you don't care aboot the armoire, because the Elmer's WOULD fuck it up.

    here's what I have in house right now...

    although I don't have the gallon size.

    Ross is the same stuff as Elmer's, but half the price.
