I purchased a Gemini Aces 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109F-4 recently and overall, very nice quality.
The stand is certainly the most robust of any in its class, metal, with a small screw to secure the stand to the base.
However, the peg that the plane rests on, is cylindrical and the plane can freely spin on it. This might be considered a nice feature or source of tremendous anxiety over the potential to fall off if disturbed.
I'm curious how anyone else handles this, do let them spin or secure them?

I put a dab of Elmers glue on the end and that helps keep the plane from moving.
