Topic: Counterbalanced replacement men for Tornado Whirlwind

[bobreb]

Got a problem. Looking for advice.

Picked up a Tornado Whirlwind for Christmas. Like it, but hate the fact that the guys drop to perpendicular when released. We just hate blocking our own shots.

I see counterbalanced replacement men advertised for the Tornado Storm and Cyclone tables. Anybody know for sure if these will work with the Whirlwind.

Assuming they don't work, I've noticed a hole in the head of each of my men. It seems that hole might just be perfect for counterbalancing the men myself. Anyone tried that? Any pointers such as how much weight to use?

Thanks in advance.

They should work.  I can't guarantee it 100% but they look the same.  Buy just one and see.
