    I've heard Bondo works, but is there anything less industrial?

    Any modeling putty,Testors or what I use,MMD Fast Drying White Putty,will do...A little bit spread about on the plastic surface filling all holes, and the small tubes only cost about 4 bucks Tim....Wayne PS--I have 35 years experience building and modding models and figures of all types..

      Aves Apoxie sculpt is also an excellent alternative.it's a 2 part compound,not as industrial as Bondo but amazingly versatile and durable-Will never shrink crack or fall apart,I've been using it to fill gaps on model kits and Air bubbles in resin castings-though it's a little on the expensive side it's worth it. Great stuff!

          Hmmmm....

          A drop of superglue works great for the small ones.

            Aves Apoxie sculpt on larger holes, and auto body spot putty for tiny holes. You can get the spot filler at auto stores. I spread it on with a biz. card. Then wet sand with 220 sandpaper.
