Dimitri, you state that you are playing above the 4.0 because that is where you made your figures. Perhaps if we had already had a 4.0 'standard', you might have been more carefull about how much your players weighed when you were making them and could have used them in tournamnets someday. As it is, being isolated over there in France, weight wasn't that important to you. But, if there had been a large following over there, you might have had more concern about being at the same limits as what the rest of them were playing at. I don't know if I'm making any sense to you.

It makes sense. THe fact is that if I find some fellows to play regularly (club/league) I'll certainly redo (franny j boy method) my figs plateforms to match the 4.0g, to make the things simplier and match the 4.0g class. I 'm not against standards or classes, I understand 4.0g is the fashionable (and perhaps the best) way to go these days, but I simply prefer the equal but diferent classes (classic-heavy-free like many sports/hobbies) idea more



edit :

We are talking about a weight standard, not a figure standard. Any Miggle, Buzzball or FF figure should be considered 'standard'. Any Miggle, Buzzball of F5 base is also considered 'standard'. It's simply a matter of how much can you weigh them and still be considered within guidlines of what is considered a 'standard' playing weight. Adding weight to figures and bases is very easy, much more so than tweaking.

I know you did not wanted to say "that brand is standard, this one is not", but perhaps someones will think that way : what I meaned is simply to keep in mind all the professional actors of the MF scene in that official weight question
