The British Flat Figure Society was formed to bring together English speaking enthusiasts for the flat tin figure, from the United Kingdom.
The International Flat Figure Society was formed with BFFS to further expand this organization around the world. It's core members include those from the BFFS and a link to the original BFFS site is still maintained.
The Society seeks to encourage the collecting, studying, painting and displaying of the flat tin figure in all its forms.
A quarterly Journal is produced, with colour pages included in two issues per year. The range of articles is diverse, reflecting the diversity of the flat tin figure, and each Journal includes pages devoted to newly released figures.
A friendly, non-competitive meeting is held once a year and the Society is represented at some model figure events such as Euromilitaire and Kulmbach. Notice of these is given in the Forum.
Membership is open to all and is not restricted to the United Kingdom. Registration at the Forum is open to all, members and non-members alike, but anyone not giving a real email address will be deleted.
Full membership includes a Quarterly Journal as well as greater access to the site.
