Yeah, it's better. But good old tin/lead 40/60 (or was it 60/40?)
is still considerably more workable. I find I have to use my minidrill 
for removing the mold lines from your minis when I usually get by with 
just my scalpel.

But the small fiddly bits, antennas, weapon barrels etc. *are* more 
durable. So I guess it has its advantages.

Talk about overrated hysteria... It's not even a law. 

Hmmm... isn't CinC American? How come they still do lead? Or do they
have 
separate castings for export?

As for not glueing the turrets... I can see why one'd want to do that,
but 
I know I'd just end up losing turrets, knocking them off during play
etc. 
So I'd just buy enough parts for full combinations.

All my minis don't fit on my table at the same time anyway.
