What model do you hate making because it fall apart all the time, you need about 4 hands to hold it together, its too small and fiddily or some other reason ?

Mine would probley be the hive tyrant which (without pinning) kept falling apart. Thats his tail, arms, head and even his leg.

Other models are the:
Necron Wraith- cause its body kept snapping in half.
Drop pod- cause there were to many parts inside it.
Hive gaurd- both arms on both models had to be brocken out of plase so thay would fit.

Broadsides are quite annoying as the railgun always falls off! but the bloodthirster is the most annoying as you need to drill a massive hole in its back to hold the wings together!

Attempts by Company Commanders to call down close-ranged artillery fire can result in disastrous casualties amongst the Imperial Guard. Whilst the loss of life is regrettable, the waste of ammunition is INTOLERABLE!

The most annoying model I've ever attempted could well be an old WHFB metal giant. Much more so than the Gauss pylon.

The most annoying that I assemble on a regular basis have to be Daemonettes. Evil, evil legs.

I'd put a quote here, but XKCD would have a better one.

Trying to put the model HBs on a valkyrie is insanely hard. You have to line up the ramp at the back, the 2 HB locators , the 2 outer walls and the roof at the same time. I needed to get my dad to help me. Hes a legend

Also land raiders, I had the old metal land raider crusader kit (metal hurricane bolters) and it was so hard. The door mechanism at the front is impossible to get to work, and the bolters just wouldnt fething stick. FETH!

failing that anything metal, i wouldnt give a flying fart if they removed every metal model and replaced them with plastic, actually id love it.

Freakin' metal bloodcrushers sucked like few things have sucked before. I would rather take a trip to the dentist than build another one of those. Boy, do the new plastic ones have a bunch of people pissed!

Thunderfire Cannon is the worst one I've assembled recently. Shame really I love the look of it and would buy a couple more for conversions and other fun if they weren't such whores to put together.

Tau Shield Drones. There is no good way to make those goddamn metal antenna stick unless you sit there for five minutes holding them in place.

Only to realize, naturally, they've drifted about five millimeters to the left, and they look DERP. At this point, the epoxy's set. That was a fun fix.

Goddamn shield drones.

Also, Telion was a massive pain in the ass, but mostly because I don't play Ultramarines, so it took me a while to file off all the UM insignia. Also, his arms wouldn't fit right, so I had to file those down as well. Never had to do so much filing on a metal model before I assembled him.

Catachans . . . their guns have to be cut in order to fit, their hands don't really line up with the gun, and you have to glue the gun and both arms at the same time to get them to line up correctly . . . that wouldn't be so bad in and of itself, until you have to assemble 40 of them.

I really hated putting my Daemon Princess (see avatar) together because she wouldn't stay together. She kept falling apart. Everything except where she had greenstuff (face, chest) fell off at least once. The weapon still tends to fall off because it's custom made.

If you don't mind me asking, what'd you use to glue her together?
