I removed the four rear screws but it appears to also be glued together...? Any recommendations on how to open this bad boy up?

Stan,
Are you taking apart the rear end of the BT? If it is glued try scribing around the sections with an X-acto knife then gently pry the halfs apart, it may just pop apart for you, I have gotten lucky a few times like this. Is this for that MILF thing you are building? Take care Rob |

Yep-it's for customizing my son's first Mobile Intelligence Light Fortress. Since the MSV and Trapper rear platforms are identical, I thought I'd
swap boxes and modify the Trapper's front end. My son wants to place the Trapper rear section on TOP of the MSV section afterwards and double decker it,
but we'll see how crazy that looks in a dry fitting.
Thanks!
Stan, Da SmokeEater!

Very light touch with a razor got most of it. Where it was too much of a strain on the plastic I used a touch of acetone on a Q-Tip on the inside where the pieces fit/were glued. It popped apart moments later with no adverse effects from the acetone (I went VERY light with it).
