For hard plastic, I use P;astruct Plastic Weld.

I'm not sure what kind of plastic the memoir 44 figs are made from but some of the plastics won't readily glue with normal plastic cement. Superglue doesn't work well on them either, unfortunately.

If the plastic is like that used by GW then you can get away with model masters plastic cement.

Unfortunately, the figures are of the soft platic sort. Since some 1:72 plastics are multi-part, I'm sure there is a bunch of experience out there in plasticland.

Use Loctite with the accelerant for soft plastics.
