................there a few reasons for establishing a "standard" as far as playing equipment goes.
#1 A standard is a baseline to go by. Therefor it makes total sense to build from the ground up. No weight, no custom, no boiled.
#2 AS far as I know, tudor, miggle and BuzzBall are the ONLY figures ORIGINALLY designed for this hobby. The other, by the owner's own admission were designed for some other use.
#3 Anyone who has ever run a reputable tournament knows that weigh-ins and inspections are a must. They take time, especially when guys enter at the last minute. Many guys travel a long way to play and it is not fair to them to be loose with the rules.
rules and STANDARDS must be in black and white, .............plain as day..........I don't know how many hours I have listened to complaints about "home cookin" in other tournaments...............another reason I got rid of my phone line!
KISS, ............
Keep It Simple Stupid I would advise going with the standard 3.2/3..3 class these are figures originally designed for the hobby in their basic state.
then Modified at 4.0, .........and unlimited, .............. like geno posted.
there it is three classes,............ plain, ...........but, not simple if you want to field a competitive team!
