Simple Yet Effective- My review of Bostik Blu Tack
Fish Mc
Reviews with images
Perfect for webcam on bezel-less monitor
I bought it on the recommendation of multiple online forums, where people recommended it for putting a webcam on a monitor with tiny bezels like most current designs. It keeps it from moving or falling off, while propping it up enough so that the front tab doesn't block any of the screen. It's sturdy enough to be able to work the shade without making the whole cam shift.Before this I was able to balance it on a tiny lip on the cam mount to keep it above the visible part of the screen, but any movement or even bumping the desk too hard would make it fall and I'd have to re-balance it.

If you're an action figure collector, surely you've run into the problem of keeping your figures standing while giving them dynamic poses (sometimes, any pose at all). I tried using the translucent stands, but those are usually for flying characters or simulating fighting scenes. I just wanted something less obtrusive that didn't take up so much space, so when I heard about Blu-Tack, I thought, "perfect."
On my first attempt (with Emma Frost), it appeared to be a success. I had a really hard time keeping her standing, even in a sort of vanilla pose. Blu-Tack worked great... for a few days. As you can see in the picture, she just fell down, today.
Next up was Beast. This was another really difficult figure to keep standing in his more dynamic poses. I tried the obligatory handstand, using the translucent base, but he just kept falling over after a while. So I tried Blu-Tack. That worked... for a day. Then he collapsed. So I changed the pose to what you see in the photo, and again, the Blu-Tack worked... for a couple days. Then he fell. Again... and again. I applied some more, thinking he just needed a stronger application. More days passed by... and he fell. So I had to resort to a combination of Blu-Tack and the translucent stand.
Enter Mr. Sinister. As you can see, he's standing with only the Blu-Tack applied to his feet. He's been standing like that for a couple of days now, but not longer than Emma Frost. So it remains to be seen if he will stay standing.
It's just disappointing. You can try your luck, but you'll probably run into the same problems I had. I'm just going to resort to using the circular bases to hold them up, now. Unfortunately, that won't work for Beast.
Oh, and for those wondering if this damages the paint of your action figures, it doesn't. The Blu-Tack came off pretty easily. However, some of it can get inside of the peg holes in their feet, so you'll need a thin object (like a small screwdriver) to dig it out.
