New resin Hero sculpts

[Anim8r]

While I will say that the new resin Heroes are vey well detailed, I am extremely unhappy with them. I have yet to find a glue that will bond to them.

The ones that are a single piece, primer and paint slides right off of them.

I washed them twice with warm soapy water, using a toothbrush. I still had this issues so I soaked them overnight and STILL have this problem.

I have seen several posts complaining about this same problem with them. One suggestion is to soak them in Simple Green. I'm going to try that and reply here.

I soaked them about 3 minutes in Simple Green, then rinsed with water and a toothbrush. Then I used superglue gel to bond them. This worked like a charm for assembling mine.

Hope that works for you!

Simple Green did the trick! I soaked them for a few hours just to be sure. Also, glue wise, I used Loctite Ultra Gel which worked great for holding the tiny hands etc in place on its own without me having to try to hold them in place until it started to dry.
