@JedIinTraining I used Darth Voorhess's idea of using zip-ties, but I opted for wire twine. Initially, I only used one piece in the middle, but needed to add an extra one towards the front to keep the braids from flapping around too much. I would suggest using the plastic twine that you would find in toy packages, that worked really well for me. The wire twine I used end up fraying at the tips and would catch and pull the wookie hair. But the idea worked out great in holding the braids. Hope this visual helps:

Hey, how did you attach your shoulders? They look nice and tight.

JedIinTraining Im using nickel size earth strong magnet glued in the center and a velcro strip on top of the shoulder piece to keep it from spinning.

This thread is great! I just got mine in and was looking to see how everyone attached them and the proper orientation. For whatever reason none of the pictures are showing up though. Any chance that anyone would have the pics and would be willing to email them to me? Thanks so much in advance.
