Default Re: Movie Optimus Prime build

I'd use a plastic solvent bonder like Plastruct Bondene, Tenax, or similar... it solvent welds the plastic together, so you need a good fit of parts, apply solvent to soften the joints, clamp parts together, comes up to full strength after about a day as it flashes off or dissapates through the body.

Locktite superglues like 416 or 420 would work, but it'll still be more brittle.

Backing sheets supporting the seam well be your friend while whatever glue you use it sets up.
