Add white glue to the Lego pieces, and to anything flat that will go between the legs to hold the hot glue in place.

The first step is very important. Adding the white glue will create a protective coat that will help you separate everything from the hot glue. I didn't do it for one figurine, and the hot glue was glued to it. I was hard to remove it with force. The figurine was not damaged, but you should consider taking this special step if you are going to work with more delicate pieces. So, yea, add glue to the figurine, and the place you will be making it stand on.

I wanted to extend my gashapon collection with some French figurines that perfectly fit the Bandai gashapons. The problem with those, was that they had a wide plastic base. So I removed them, and made my own so they would look as the Bandai collection.
First attempt was with a resin I bought at the dollar store, just yesterday I tried a different method with a hot glue gun. I recommend to try with a repeated figurine, or one that can be easily replaced. I am sure it will be fine, but it is to give you a grip of how the process will go. and you will learn in case you make some mistakes. All my figurines are safe, but just a tip to be safer.

Guide as how I made stands for figurines that were not in the series collection, or came with a different kind of stand. (Sample)

Bandai HG IF Dragonball Z Imagination Figure 4 gp this is one. I've already added the Hachette. Ozaru is small for an Ozaru, but About twice the size of a standing Goku. It is well done, and it does look good. I just bought some Ikea frames to get them all out of the box. I will post that at the end so you can compare sizes.
