Just got a couple of these in 1/100 or 15mm. Do they really only need to be snapped together or should you use glue as well?
Thanks

I use Testors liquid glue.

I use glue, but they don't really need it and can be snapped together. It's just that sometimes some smaller parts may come loose…

If your going to use them for gaming then glue is a good idea, if they are for display only then glue is not needed.

I use glue, and if you are going to spray undercoat them, put some lead or weight inside the hull as well.

What is your US source, Brookhurst?

Years ago we put used fishing weights. Is there something more practical and economical these days?

TIA,

Bought some on ebay. That was the only place I could find them. I just want to play around with a couple. Old Glory and Gaming Models are a better deal.

yeah. my local game store sometimes gets some in but it's been insane on how much trouble they have getting them. I've been semi-patiently waiting on the T-35s for long enough. I'm about to make another gaming models order in the near future and going to just go that way.
