I pin EVERY metal model I own, especially anima models. You need to take extra care and use a tiny drill bit, probably .5mm or smaller but it IS possible and I recommend it for such fragile models. The anima tactics line is really more of a line of display miniatures than gaming models, but they are gorgeous.
Use a little bit of green stuff when sticking together smaller metal models, i done that with my infinity aleph models and there just as small and thin and it made it so easy
Fit together with a very small amount of green stuff set in the joint, and a dab of zap-a-gap (maybe super glue too) on the arm. When you set the arm in, the glue and green stuff create a pretty good bond, and it dries quickly. Just be sure not to use too much green stuff or be prepared to scrap away excess that pushes out from the joint.
I suggest 5 minute JB Weld. Further, you can shape the excess that squeezes out so you don't have to worry about filling gaps! It will be a stronger bond than super glue. Great vid buddy!
That is a nice looking mini. The one thing I have always disliked about metal models is the small joints or pegs they mold in for us to use as the put together points, very annoying and has caused my dogs to leave the room several times when im putting them together.
