Where bases are bit thick, (Copplestone and TAG) I cut the plastic bases to fit then mount the figures flush in the bases using a hot glue gun and a few strips of plasti card.

I hate metal bases and especially when they're blatantly obviously bulging on the top of plastic bases.

If the base is thin and the model is well placed then I'll saw and pin like most others.

Cheers
