will bind deep enough to wistand being placed and removed from Panthro's
giant mits.
At the moment I use a resin that has a shore hardness of 70, so it'll be hard enough. Though at the 4" scale it mostly likely won't be that hard be definitely harder, no firmer than the Bandai 'chucks.

As for the color, the problem at the moment is dyeing the resin with the right shade of red. Currrently it comes out looking like a pinkish- fuchsia color. Dye might have gone bad, idk... it's either that, release them in white or I just paint them.
