I have one foot glues to the base. No matter what I do, the other foot won't stick to the base. Using the same glue. No other issues with this glue and these models except for this.

This is what I'm using.

When I first put it on the base, I put glue on both feet, held both feet on the base for a minute. I wanted to give extra time because the model was so big and I wanted to make sure it would balance. The right foot stuck fine. Left foot no. Since it was a brush I tried coating the base, then the feet again. I adjusted the legs a bit so that foot would lay on the base more. Nothing is working. I want both feet glued on the base. Frustrated.

Sand off the base and under the feet to remove excess dried glue.

Reapply, then use masking tape to hold in place. I then used some PVA glue squirted into the recesses of the foot that will provide a lasting hold. Leave overnight.

Another couple of tips to try with stubborn joins like that;

• Use a file (or a hobby knife if you don't have a file handy) to score the underside of the feet, and the general area of the base that you want the feet to bond to. If you can get it to a rough texture, when you apply the glue and put the AT-ST on the base, that scoring can let the glue get into the small cracks and provide some more friction for it to grip, if that makes sense.
• My preferred method, is to get a hand drill (or use a power tool if you have one with a thin bit, a steady hand, and adult supervision) and a paper clip. Drill a small hole into the underside of each foot, do the same with the base where the feet will go down. Before you drill the base, take the paperclip and cut off a small straight piece and glue it into the foot with a small amount sticking out that is no longer than the height of the base. Dab some paint on the protruding paper clip bits and stick that onto the base to see where you need to drill the holes into the base. Drill the holes, then apply glue to the bottom of the feet, stick it on and that should help hold it in place. For extra bond, apply some super glue to the underside on to where the clip is coming through the base, and maybe cover it with a small amount of putty/green stuff as well.

I hope that helps.

As the others have said scuff the bottom of the foot and the area to want to glue the foot on.

You might want to freeze the leg and scrape off the super glue first to get a solid restart, and also a light wash with some soap and water to get rid of any mold release residue that might still be there.

Personally i used two magnets on each foot (3/16"x1/16") and then on the underside of the base so I can multi pose the legs and be able to store the entire model in the box with simple dismantling from the snap fit for transport.

Just my opinion from years of mini assembling for whatever it's worth. I posted this in one of the other threads as well.

Normal small plastic mini assembly: use citadel plastic super glue or any common plastic super glue. Should work just fine.

Larger mini with odd weight or mini with difficult pose to glue: use gorilla super glue, dries slightly faster with a strong hold.

Very large plastic models with weight: use gorilla gel super glue. This stuff is legit. If you can assemble a metal sisters of battle penitent engine (super heavy all metal dreadnaught) with it, you can literally assemble anything with it. I used this on my atst, zero issues frozen in that pose forever.. Lol

The gorilla glues be found at just about any craft store, probably Wal-Mart as well. Citadel plastic glue can be found at your local gaming store in most cases.

I found plastic glue didn’t work very well with the bases, at least not army painters, which is good for GW miniatures.

Ooh, good call on magnetizing the feet. That's exactly the solution I was looking for. The legs pose well, which was making me really sad to have to glue the feet down.

I honestly wish the AT-ST base were a smidge larger. You can't get enough of a stride going and still get it on the base. Ends up looking more static than this gorgeous model has any right to.

I was shocked the bases didn't have a hole, with the feet having a peg.

Kinda glad they didn't, though. This way you have the option of posing them. It would have been awful, for instance, if the base peg-and-hole lined up with even feet in a standing pose.

This way, the AT-ST can free-stand, as well, which is nice for hobbyist modelers not interested in the game.
