Which models snap crackle and pop for you?

**PG_RevGeoff** · 07-20-2012, 02:41 PM

Ok, I'm just gluing one of eGaspy's souls back to his base for the fifth time and I was wondering if anyone has that "special" model that has bits coming off every so often? I find you can't pin everything...unless you are mad.
I think I'm also missing some of termie's wing spikes permanently as well.

**r3tr3ad** · 07-20-2012, 02:48 PM

MHSF crossbows like to fall apart on me. I suppose I could pin them, but I don't know if I have a bit that small lying around.

**MagnustheJust** · 07-20-2012, 03:06 PM

I usually have a Steelhead Halberdier hand from my first unit, before I started pinning my pins in place, that pops loose every 3rd or 4th time the come out...

I keep swearing I'm going to pin the stupid thing, but never do.

**PG_Nightrave** · 07-20-2012, 03:11 PM

Kromac's human form arms with axes. They always pop off. And the shields from the blood trackers.

Also the swords and sword arms for the dawngaurd sentinels

**niceas** · 07-20-2012, 03:19 PM

MHSF crossbows. Enough said, I think.

Druid of Orboros arms. Its not unusual for one to come off, unfortunately.

Megalith.

Harrowers. They tend to pop off their bases.

**Scottl1** · 07-20-2012, 03:20 PM

darragh's unmounted model's scythe always comes off.. such little glue points on such a big weapon make me a sad panda.

**Drzombieface** · 07-20-2012, 03:25 PM

Cankerworm's jaws/fangs/whatevers on the side of his head never stay on for me, and they're too small to pin. I might just leave them off.

**jvaran** · 07-20-2012, 03:29 PM

The spikes on pThagrosh's back fall off for me. That, and the arms of the Blighted Swordsmen.

**niceas** · 07-20-2012, 03:35 PM

I'm noticing a lot of Cryx...

**RMH420** · 07-20-2012, 03:40 PM

My god dam Iron Fang Pikeman. I just finished converting all their pikes to brass rods. Now if their freaking arms and shield would stay on. Even with pins the shields come off all the freaking time.

I have only ever encountered two parts I was unable to pin since I started doing that obsessively. Only one of the two was on a PP model and I bet I could pin it now with my smaller bits that were bought after that build. I even pinned mage hunter crossbows back when I played ret. Madness pays off.

**CrypticApathy** · 07-20-2012, 03:41 PM

Pmorg's extended claw arm.

**PG_RevGeoff** · 07-20-2012, 04:09 PM

There are several LoE swordsmen arms lying in my battlefoam.

I almost forgot the S. Raiders whips! Yeah...those.

Half my Cygnar models. It's why I play them.

...oh, sorry, I thought we were talking about

**PG_Shi_no_Kami** · 07-20-2012, 05:26 PM

Well there is this one Phoenix Hawk painted in Capellan colors that keeps falling off his base, despite him being pinned to his foot (which is part of the hex base). But for WM/H - nope. Problem models get pinned - that typically solves the problem.

**Lanz** · 07-20-2012, 05:29 PM

Striders and Daughters of The Flame.

**JBRocky** · 07-20-2012, 05:43 PM

Praetorian Karax seem to always loose thier shield or Halbred. Since I never use them anymore I have stoped caring.

**PG_Bearded Dragon** · 07-20-2012, 05:56 PM

Dire troll teeth.

**panopticon** · 07-20-2012, 06:11 PM

I second, or possibly third Striders. I'm way, way behind in painting and went to pull them out to base them and half of them had their arms off, and I just can't seem to find one bow and the leaders head. Drat.

Sink the tips of the feet {???

} into the base a bit, and then trim them under the base until it is level...

Right on. Just finished assembling 10 Black Dragons, put them in my case and by the time I got to the store I play at tonight, half had fallen off. I wonder if metal models could be soldered?

**Lawso42** · 07-20-2012, 07:37 PM

Caber Throwers...

Each caber popped off at least three times before I finally got around to pinning them...

Lawso

No. The melting point for these types of alloys is far to low to solder. You will wind up destroying the model.

**MeniteTom** · 07-20-2012, 07:56 PM

Until I paid someone to pin her, eFeora's smokestacks.

**Saraminss** · 07-21-2012, 12:35 AM

I always had issues with Scorcia's hammer

**PG_Azhdeen** · 07-21-2012, 12:51 AM

No one has mentioned Nyss Hunters yet, I have given up on reattaching the arms and such. The other one is Bane Thrall spikes (Garden Fence as I call it), on their back; which I have stopped reattaching as well.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 07-21-2012, 09:14 AM

None in any faction I've collected. *knock on wood*

Though my Eliminators look awfully precarious. One arm did come off once, but that was only because I had assembled her in a hurry and almost expected it.

**PG_machine007** · 07-21-2012, 09:19 AM

My Housegaurd Halbediers and Precursors like to drop their shields.

Also my ret casters like dropping their weapons too.

Dire Troll teeth just end up disappearing on me more often than not. I think none are left

**SpiderBite** · 07-21-2012, 09:54 AM

BaneKnights halberds.

**gaminguy** · 07-22-2012, 03:10 AM

I have a single Ferox rider who keeps losing his spear arm. Outside of that I haven't had to glue a single thing I can think of back on a miniature when there wasn't a fall / ham-handed non-gamer involved.

**Sectux** · 07-22-2012, 03:20 AM

Cataphract flags... They were sent to test me...

**StratManKudzu** · 07-22-2012, 04:42 AM

My feralgeist keeps breaking in half, I'm gonna have to get the pin vice out.

**Lich_Lord_X** · 07-22-2012, 06:31 AM

Bane knights. Weak elbow joints and flimsy spears that always seem to bend and break.

**Soundsofascience** · 07-22-2012, 07:56 AM

My precursors can't hang on to their shields, thankfully I've only painted the ua.

**Antigonus** · 07-22-2012, 10:17 AM

Gun Corps shields keep falling off for me.

**gunslingerpro** · 07-22-2012, 10:48 AM

The spikes on the back of DJ's hands. I think 2 of 6 are still attached, if that.

**MagnustheJust** · 07-22-2012, 10:53 AM

Another one that kept irking the bah-jeebus out of me...

The Vanguard's halberd ans shield!! I am almost finished adding in magnets - 1mm x 4mm for those interested - to make storage and transport a lot easier. Not to mention painting...

**PG_demonmonkey263** · 07-22-2012, 12:29 PM

Man-O-War shock troopers axe hands always fall off, then I pin them and have no problems.

**PG_Agamemnon** · 07-22-2012, 12:36 PM

Darius steam lobber.... then I double pinned it to the main body. No more falling off now.
