(...) Agreed! Building alternate models out of official models is a really interesting challenge. Too bad I've already sorted my models into my parts bins, though! ;-) Fredrik (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)

Super glue worked well for me. It can go on a little gobby, but if you don't mind shaving the excess off with an X-acto it should work rather well. Dave (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.general)

The "riot gun" or RBG as you guys (and gals, we can't be sexist now can we!) call it also has a little opening in the top to let the used up shells exit, this is just a detail I thought would add to the gun.
