Yes the plastic goop works great on plastic , resin and metal figures , I used it on all 3 types to glue on arms ( plastic to metal ) , fill in gaps and glue to bases . The trick is getting the right mix of plastic to glue , not too thick or too runny . I use Testors or Tamiya ( white cap ) liquid glue in that small square bottle with the brush . Wait till you have about 1/4 inch of liquid left and then add small ( 1/8 inch size ) pieces of plastic . I have found that the Plastuct white plastic or the soft Bolt Action grey plastic figure sprue  works the best . Add enough small pieces to cover the liquid , close cap , let sit . Check it the next day , if too runny add some more plastic . Better to add too little than too much . Since its mostly melted plastic , when dry it sets up hard and can be sanded  like all plastics , I’ve used it to “glue ” metal figures to plastic bases , just goop it under their feet , when dry , cut /sand away any extra . Also great for adding texture to bases , splash of goop , add a stone from the garden , your set . Of course its best to practice on a few old pieces to start with just in case …. Word of warning , the fumes are pretty nasty and probably flammable   so take appropriate measures
