Anyone got any good techniques for getting the knights to fit on the horses properly?

Not one of mine fit properly!

Full on, Full on!

I never had a single problem with plastic knights fitting on horses. The metal BSB model may require you to file down the barding on the right side of the back of the saddle a bit.


Make sure you are using matched leg sets(check the knee joints for the same symbol) and for most of mine I cut off the tab that holds the legs together to get a tighter fit.

Plastic knights should be a somewhat loose fit until they are glued in place, they aren't a tight fit like glade riders.

Cheers dude.

I just glued and pressed and held and it seems ok. lol

I just expected them to be a better fit in general tho.

The lord model is an awful model! My lance was broke in the blister too, and its just crap to build and the helmet is cak.

I sculpted my own sword for him out of a spare part from a rhino tank and was considering trying to change the dragon on his head with the old kings head with the lion and the wings but I just left it as it was.

Thought the standard bearer was much better!

Full on, Full on!
