Believe it or not the thread that Shabby is having nightmares about actually created some controversy on here and involved a member who was eventually banned for comments made to others on this subject and others. Here is that thread. http://www.miniaturefootball.com/for...super+prolines

My personal experience with them is that they are a good base and with the right kind of tweaking can perform really well. I don't think they rate up with First Runs, but you can't find first runs easily any more. My best luck was with using a directly heated pliers and I was able to get pretty decent strength that rivaled some first run prolines that I had tweaked by some of the "experts" for comparison tests.

Yes my answer was cryptic and vague, no disrespect intended to your question.

The super prolines do rival the first runs that are so highly sought after. They are very close if tweaked properly, they are not superior, but they are the closest thing to the first run prolines you will find for strength.

Wolf mentioned tweaking them for strength using heated pliers, this provides excellent results, nice creamy smooth and wide prongs.

They are very good strength bases.

Even if you do not heat the pliers they tweak nicely, but for maximum strength heated pliers will bring out the best in them.
