Hey guys, got to the point where I have to glue my wings on my heldrake, is it better to magbstise them, pin them or just glue them?

I glued mine as otherwise you will spend your games watching them fall off. I glued them fully forwards to make transportation easier, it fits in the new gw carry case with 20 raptors and a dp.

I was thinking glueing will be best but my mate has magnetised his 2 and they worked ok

You'd need some pretty strong magnets. I glued mine, and it was tricky getting the model to sit in the right position while the glue dried. I used plastic glue, and at this point I'm not sure I could easily pull the wings off if I tried. To let the glue dry, I had to stack stuff cleverly in order to hold the body and wings in the right position.

I would have used stong mags, know a few cheap places for them
