Yes. I use ICE's hex-bases; on some models (MicroMachines; some of GW's 
ships) I cut off the small peg on top of the "pole", though. If you bore

up the hole in a MicroMachine model a bit, this works fairly well even 
without glue.

As for RL plastic tanks, you can put them on Silent Death stands - no 
real problem. I fix them with blue-tac (or whatever that blue-grey
sticky 
goo is called :).

Only in my dreams... and when I've drilled the holes myself.
