Here's how I make the weapons on a Valkirye interchangable- Drill the wing mounts (its easier to do this with it still on the spruce) Then drill the rocket pods (so the holes line up). Stick pins in the rocket pods- Add epoxy resin to the inside to stop the pins being pushed back into the rocket pod.- Cut the pins to length (sorry no pic) Add small magnets to the side weapons and the part it's meant to be fixed to (using a bit of plasticard). Thats it-

Very nice tutorial! I just put all of the weapons on my Valk. You just need a bit of Greenstuff and Viola! (& maybe if I'm playing against someone whom dosen't know the Imperial Guard rules, I could use all of the weapons mwahaha ) This is a bad pic, it was taken when I was still painting it..

The Rockets get the pins aswell i assume? No, the missile fins slot into the wing pylon.

Just got a valkyrie the other day and I'm loving every minute of it's assembly. It really is a beautiful kit. This guide was very helpful, so thanks.

How does the pins hold the weapons in? I just did mine using this guide and the missle pods just fall right off. I think the holes are a little bigger than the pins and that is giving me trouble.
