Elastic band! Has to be an authentic Palitoy one, though.

Drill, use the straps off a rubber backpack and...erm...a Q Force elastic band!

3 great ideas. You are a clever lot aren't you!

I would seriously consider making a new set of rotor blades for it as well.

Thanks to the generosity of Scoobydie, I picked up my AF copter-thing yesterday.

Despite the clever suggestions of elastic bands and blue tac, I went with drilling a hole in the back of the figures, GIJoe-style.

It looks pretty good I think.

With a bit of green and orange paint, it'll match up pretty well...
