I want to make sure everything fits together before I glue permanently, will rubber cement ruin the plastic or come off when I'm ready to glue everything permanently? whats the best way to do this?

I've never used rubber cement on models, but I imagine it's probably too strong. I have used liquid cement for plastics and even that kind melts the plastic together to create a stronger bond. Maybe use children's glue like Elmer's...
Testers is what most model railroaders i know use but personally for minis i like old fashioned super glue because if it falls it will break at the SG joint not some random spot that hits the ground well 9/10 times from my experiance
I've read on these forums someone using blue tack holding their Nagash together. That's a pretty complicated model.
I don't know what your are trying to glue, but I'd suggest actually gluing the 'solid' bits you are sure of and using tack for the rest. You will have to scrape it off before you use glue so pick the order.
*sometimes working from the 'anchor' part won't work and you need to do the outside parts first and glue that to the 'anchor'.

I tried the rubber cement last night, its actually too weak, it doesn't hold to anything. Ended up just using scotch tape to hold them together. Worked pretty well.
