Balance of figures...or lack thereof

does anyone else have Karai, Foot Ninja, Gato, Serpiente, Jersey Devil, etc. that just have crappy balance and always fall over when you stand them up? its really a pain in the ass...

My Karai and Foot Ninja are fine, but my April has to lean on Casey so she doesn't fall over!

My April, General Gato, and General Serpiente fall all the time. I've been reduced to using poster gum to keep them up, and even that doesn't work.

ive always used the cheap trick of sticking out arms of the unstable ones in back so that they are braced by the stronger figures in front.

I have an April figure. You just have to have her lean over a lil forward and she stands just fine.

I just lean them all up against something. I don't think they make stands for these like they do for Star Wars figures, so until then I will just use something simple like leaning them up against another figure or near something more sturdy.
