Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought these to use as physical scenery for playing RPGs with other older gamers. They are a good size for use with 25mm figures, and if mixed in with larger sizes, flesh out a forest nicely. If temporary, reconfigurable terrain is desired, they must be based with something with some mass or every time a player reaches into the terrain to move their figures they will fall over. I used plastic play coins which I hot glued onto the provided bases, then I used white glue to hold a layer of sand. Once dry I painted the base with common acrylic paint blended with more white glue and a little water with a final contrasting drybrush to pull the detail out. More hot glue and aquarium gravel for boulders and left over foliage from cleaning up the trees for bushes finished them up. Overall, they do what I need without breaking the bank, and require only a modest amount of customization to be visually appealing. These are not the absolute cheapest way to go, however you can have a huge forest in an evening.
I rated the durability on the low side as these are colored ground foam glued to a plastic armature. They will constantly shed fragments of "foliage" when handled. This is not as bad as I make it sound however. Merely keep a container nearby for the first several deployments of your terrain, which you should have anyway for the leftovers out of the box, and deposit the pieces therein. If a tree looks a little bare, a dab of hot glue and sick a piece of the foliage back on. Conversely, if a tree looks a little too dense, just pick some foliage off. Under no circumstances should any model cement come into contact with the foliage, the solvents will dissolve the foam, although super glue or cement does have to be used to assemble the provided bases to the bottom of the trees' trunks.
