I use double sided tape to adhere them, but you can also use screws. You'll also need a hacksaw. I use these blades: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And a miter box. I used this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1

Then of course whatever LED strip lighting you want to put in there... they pretty much all come with self adhesive backing. just pay attention to the width, so it fits in the channel.

This is the stuff I used, just as an example:
LED strip lights: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wire (likely too large for individual strips, but I was also combining, and didn't want to buy different gauges of wire): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Connectors (for those of us that are too lazy to solder): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wire them all together behind the cabinet eventually to a single plug and power supply... you'll likely need a larger one because the ones they supply with the strip are like the bare minimum for a single strip.
Wow dope thank you!

Two broken heads. Does anyone know if Prime 1 Studio is refunding, replacing or crediting user with broken heads recently?

i had one broken head, they offered a replacement (after proof of destroying the original) or a $50 credit. I asked for a third option (mine was minor damage of a head i wasn't gonna use anyway), which they accepted, they're sending me hopper's dog tag from the bonus edition. to settle the matter.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

$50 credit is laughable.

$2500 USD for the statue and a $50 credit for a broken head piece? My goodness. Maybe add a zero.

I've seen this Jungle Hunter next to other 1/3 and this makes them look small. I don't know about accuracy of scaling, but this thing is a Beast! Amazing detail and work. I can see why they are so expensive.

It's much closer to 1:2 scale. Their "1:4" version is closer to 1/3 scale according to other collectors.
