Tiny metal bitz are always a PITA. Hard to pin, leery of just gluing them on. My gf HATESHATESHATES skeletons, I think her VC are going to end up with a lot of ghouls and zombies! Automatically Appended Next Post: BTW thanks to mewiththeface for the heads up on the venomthropes.

Perfect grade Gundams... Pain in the ass...
Oh Citadel stuff? Anything large and Eldar like. Lots of spindly arms and legs requiring massive tensile strength...

Drop Pods are my personal least favorite. There is worse, but I won't have to make more than one of most other things, not since those plastic Kans came out...

I have a new one: Flamers of Tzeentch. Irregular joints that consist of TINY ball-and-sockets, and they're a pain in the ass just to get stuck to a BASE.
I had to use masses of GS just to keep them from falling apart when handled - even epoxy wouldn't hold, with contact points as tiny as those. One of them is even GS'd to its base.

Sinewy Scourge

The WFB hydra. Would be much easier if I had a dremel, because getting large enough pins in with my tiny pin vice is something I've given up on. Lots of glue and greenstuff is binding the necks to the body.

Surprisingly, my venomthrope stays together! However the same cannot be for my zoanthrope.... It isn't, as you'd expect it to be, that oversized head of its not attaching to the body, its standing it up on the base. I'll be playing a game with my 'nids and suddely *crash* "ah, that'll be the zoan again...."
Other models i hate is the DE war hydra! Grrrr! Hate that thing! Grrr!
The DE black guard annoy me because they are supplied with diagonal slit bases, this means that your entire unit either faces left, or right. It's stupid! Black guard champion: "Right, chaps, let's advance on this unit of spearmen while looking at that nice chariot over there!" So annoying.
Tbh, metal models that are big than a normal man sized figure just annoy me, plastic is far better.

Immortals...just immortals. Everything about them is wrong. Also sonic weaponry was a little annoying.

From fantasy - Scrap launcher. You need 5 hands to keep everything in place, and it turns to scrap unless every single jiont is pinned.
damm right mate, plus the thing is so sharp with the spikes and all that.

Ork burnaz. it seems that the plastic pieces never fit just right, or you get a good fit, but then you can't fit a head on the model.
