Home-cast figures were often made using molds from companies like: Prince August (Ireland) Crescent Comet Zinnfiguren (Germany) Hobbyists would pour molten lead or alloy into rubber or metal molds, then hand-paint the figures…solid home-cast, hand-painted. The figures are roughly 1/32 scale, which was standard for many home-cast molds. The Primary Era: 1930s–1970s…still a niche hobby today.
