There is a glue available in Wal-Mart type stores in a blister pack
called
"GOOP" it's in a silver tube and comes in several formalau. I have kit
bashed
Hot Wheel type stuff before. gluing panels, redoing the gun barrels.
hobby
putties, plasticene, Sculpy will also work, but plasticene and Sculpy
must be
covered with a hard-varnish like finish to keep them from being
"squished".
