After finishing my AB vickers machine guns I figured I should get these older plastic ones from HAT done too. They came in a box of four sets plus some other support weapons. Great value but not on the same level as the AB metal figures as far as detail etc. The plastic on HAT figures is also really soft and weird. Impossible to sand and also cuts strangely. Anyway did the best I could. Based on small circular plywood with some clay and sand. The figures are all identical so I tried to vary the bases with extra bits and pieces and walls and shrubs…… That is enough MGS for my British battalion, just some infantry mortars and I think it could be finally finished…….. oh no hang on I bought something else……
They look really good, Will! 🙂 Good idea going for variation with the bases! I hate that very soft, almost rubbery, HaT plastic. A lot of their figures come in better “soft” plastic so it was maybe a phase they went through at some point!

Thanks John. Yeah this box of HaT figures was all bendy and tricky. I really only used the MGs all my other stuff is metal AB and CP

Those are great- soft plastic can be a pain to work with but those have come out very nicely despite that.
Cheers,
