Its actually resin...like the resin that is becoming popular...
these days. They may have mixed a small bit of fiberglass in to back up the ad copy claim. Same thing they do with resin (cold cast porcelain and cold cast bronze)

It's all a plastic.
Resins are plastics. It's just a matter of material; organic vs inorganic.
There is no fiberglas in the the resin used in the FM model.

I've been told by the R&D guys that a small blend of fiberglass was added...it did nothing to the look or texture but allowed the use of the word in the ad copy. Its a resin in the sense its not injection molded ABS plastic. Just like the Lambandi MkII
