I’ve bought quite a bit of the Bones here and there so the announcement is just a formal one that the range will be moving to that material. The last time I looked about its the same stuff as has been used for their CAV line instead of metal. It does hold the details well and would be an upgrade above the current stock of what I guess is nylon. I think that the stuff in question is probably a blend of ABS in comparing it to material I’ve gotten from Plastruct and Evergreen Plastics to scratchbuild with.
I’d say that the molds would be a hell of a lot longer lived with the lower temp required and the likely wear from pulling them apart. The material also appears to be less prone to the god awful warping that has been the bane of my mini buying from that line. I’ve switched to resin and some other metal figures because of the quality issue. I love the prices but you pay for the level of product. I hope that they get this off the ground as their dream was to bring minis to the prices of almost two decades ago before the x3 leap in tin cost.
