| I just picked up this bad girl today and I am wanting some suggestions: I want to pin her arms, so i can use both options. Below is the image of she looks like now. Any suggestions? Or has anyone got this model and tried? | |

| Hmm so the weapon arm is static and you can just put in different hands. That certainly makes it difficult... have you considered drilling the hole in her arm a bit deeper then put a magnet inside the hole, but deep enough so that another magnet (which you will put on each hand instead of the glueing-pin) will fit on top of it without being visible.
Given the typical slender Eldar appearance, you will probably have to use a 2mm disc magnet at max. | |

| And RH stuff is really quite fine and delicate - I would be too scared to even attempt this. I will say the magnet idea makes sense, I'm not sure how pinning alone would manage...though I'll admit all of my swappable stuff has been done with magnets, so I may just not know any other method. | |

| RH stuff is SO slender...that's why it looks so good. Personal advice? Buy a second Skaarlys! The chances of ruining it are so high, you might end up needing a spare anyway, just have two of them instead! (Ooh, twins...I need a lie down now...) | |

| Yeah. I started using a Pin Vice on the Right side of the model I was satisfied with that side, but once I got to the slender arm on the left I started to rethink. I do believe that a second model will be needed. So Lady Malys will be born with my first one. Oh well. 20 dollars down the drain to ruin a model and not be able to use it, or 40 dollars to have two usable models. The choice to me is clear. | |
