You can try Testors non-toxic cement for plastic models. No but really, check back next week, they should have a pretty good restock of them

I don't know of any other brands. All I use is Testors cuz that's all the hobby store carries and they always have a buttload of it.

Epoxy isn't something you want to use on your plastic model kits. It's difficult to work with and really not worth the hassle. I say just wait a bit until your hobby store gets more model cement in stock. Trust me.

Dude hot glue SUCKS!! All it does is sticks the plastic together, and it comes apart easily. Testors Model Cement BONDS the plastic so it stays together.

Yeah, hot glue, epoxy and stuff like that aren't made for plastic models. Always try to use Plastic Model Cement. It's designed for use specifically with plastic model kits. Anything else may damage the plastic and might not last.
