Issues Assembling Mourngul

Hi AOS My mourngul finally came in today and I've tried to assemble it using both super glue and plastic glue. But neither have worked at all so far. I can't get the pieces to stick.
Does anyone have experience assembling forgeworld models? Is there a different type of glue I can use?
 
Did you wash it thoroughly before assembly? Resin typically has stuff on the outside of it that will cause glue and paint to not stick. Also, use super glue. Plastic glue won't work because it's resin.
 
Don't use a lot of glue, just a tiny amount, and hold pieces for a minute or more - less is more here. When it seems to hold, don't test the join for an hour... It's still curing and gaining strength. Superglue also has no shear or rotational strength, so don't expect it to hold if you try to pull pieces apart, such as arms attached only at a joint.
