I have a pretty large collection of 20mm early-WWII models, many of
which are
resin. Often these models have come with small-to-medium size lumps of
rubber
still embedded in the casting. This is obviously part of the mould that
has
broken off while the model was being none-too-gently removed. When
buying two or
more models, you always hope that the other ones were made _before_ the
one with
the mould lump !
