    well as you can see in my pics HD the plates of the back walls dont even clip together well or with floor plates as well. So if I do try to really make them so, Id prolly spend an eternity trying... the black clips you say would be an additional hassle as they HAVE to be able to stay in place coz really if you see my CCC set and try to even "play" with it it WILL fall apart on you which is sssssoooooooo frustrating really. Still im glad I got it.

    Show me a picture of how the plates join together and supposed to clip together from the back and I'll see if I can think of something.

    Best not to glue something that big together as it is likely to break when you carry it anywhere and when it does it'll look ugly.

    you clip it from the back not the side or the front. I used these. the 15mm or 19mm ones will do the trick.

    I'll take a pic to show you. seriously, you can't tell at all that its clipped and its solid as a rock after that.

    Hmm some good suggestions here from yourself HD, I'm just curious how many clips would you need per join?

    Liegeprime - glad you managed to put it together! Looks awesome, time to do some weathering and lighting on that Computer Control Center!

    ah yes these work like a charm at the back wall panels HD, but Ive also reinforced the floor to wall connection with blu tack - works really well Now I can play with the set and not fear of an "earthquake" effect going to happen when I do fiddle with it heheheh
