My FW LR destroyers came with one or two barrels snapped...could N OT get one of em back on straight no matter how hard I tried.  :angry:

Another annoying model for me, was sticking the broken exhausts back onto the FW Ork Gunwagons.

Dont even go there! I have not heard of a single pack of these things that have not included at least one, and more often two or all three, with this problem.

I have a really small pin vise drill and pin tricky models if superglue and accellerator don't do the trick.

Shabbat Shalom,

My LR variants had 50% lascannon barrel breakage rate when they arrived.  :angry:  I think I'm going to make new ones from brass wire and GS and not even try to glue the snapped ones together.

I have troubles gluing the new (EA) Land Speeders... I use fast bonding epoxy (kind of GS that takes in a few minutes) : even if the resin does not hold, it gives me a much more fitting surface to glue afterward.

Another thing that while not difficult, just tedious:  The sprues of stormtroopers that I assembled.  Having to clip off, then sand 40 little buggers took alot of Dremel time.   My hand was vibrating by the time I was through.   :O

iblisdrax> Is it the same with Terminators?

The Termies are much easier than the Stormtroopers in my opinion, the metal 'link' being much smaller and dealt with more easily, the troopers are a pain :(

Haven't gotten any Terminators yet, so we'll go with Justinel's data.  :D
