On the more static ones I use Rubber Cement as it would be easy to remove and does not do any damage.  What works for me (sometimes) on the ones that are less stable is to put a "glob" of Rubber Cement in the spot I want it then wait a few minutes till it gets "sticky" and then put the figure on it.  Sometimes works sometimes not.  I also use a cement called "School Glue" which seems like regular rubber cement but is more transparent and seems to work a little better.  Available at Michael's.  Yes I have also used CA when I get desperate

For insulation foam (or similar) layout surfaces: Heat a straight pin with a match and stick it up into a plastic figure's leg or other relevant part, then clip off the pin's head. Now the figure can be stuck anywhere you would like, and moved without visible damage to the surface.

I like D500 pin idea as it will also work with homosote. If you can’t stick the pin in use a micro drill bit to make a hole. When and if you change whatever you used for the landscaping will cover the hole nicely. I used this metho for planting trees on my last layout.
