When I make the hasbros I make them ore like statues with no moving parts. I use a hacksaw to cut the pieces then an electric hand held sander to smooth out the rough edges. Once assembled I spray it with pewter gray spray paint you can get at Wal Mart for 98 cents. Once that is all done I use Apple Barrel paints for the painting and one done I spray it with a clear sealer.
You can see my work at

At one point two years ago I wrote up a huge alphabitized list of hasbro recipes that were posted here. Maybe the mods could find that and send you the link. To be honest I woudln't mind seeing what recipes I cae up weith as I can not find the disc I saved it on originally.
