Heat guns works good.  Haven't tried boiling them or putting them in a
conventional oven (not microwave).  you may also use a torch.  Then try some
creative ways to paint rust colors via sparay paint or an airbrush.  Try
reading up on advanced weathering tecniques from model railroad pros.  You
can find some great ideas in Railroad magazines and at your local bookstore
in the hobby section.  Why buy the book when you can read it AT the
bookstore!

Ya, and why buy the set when you can build it AT Target? :-)

I think the real question is how to do this effect without modding or painting
anything. Modding is too easy. I'd vote for using a lot of plates to model
things being fractured, I guess.
