Just acquired my first Harridan (ok, to be fair, probably my only one as well) and it looks like me that the wings would have some difficulty in staying on with just glue. I was wondering if anyone here had assembled one with pins for the wing slots and any suggestions they might have. I thought about magnets so I could take them off for transport, just not real comfortable with the idea of a wing getting knocked off and hitting a floor. And, well, I haven't ever played a game of Apocalypse so I might never even field it, I just wanted one to paint.

Never built one personally... but If theres space in the joint, a magnet and 2 fairly long pins ought to keep it on during play, without twisting, and be removable for transport.
Maybe not even need a magnet, but I'd think that would help it to stay on properly in the event of loose pins once its a bit worn in.

Congrats! It is a cool model.

I would think either pins and magnets, or use some very large dowels (or acrylic rod) with magnets.

I am planning on getting one, but fw has been out of stock!!!

I do think you really want to make the wings detachable...for easier transport, and just in case it gets knocked over (the wings would just come off, instead of break).

oh, in apoc, they are pretty good. Overall the apoc flyers are not as good as they used to be (they were much harder to shoot in previous version of apoc, and their points costs have not been reduced - this is true for all flyers) but they are really good and a lot of fun.

I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
And my wings were missing again.
This happens all the time.
They're detachable.
