Rin was a happy girl at one timeSpoiler!
But now she is broken.Spoiler!
Any ideas on how I could fix her? The only ways I have found are (a) super glue [but will never fit in the box again] or (b) redoing the footpeg with a drill and epoxy [a lot of effort], so I came to you guys for more ideas.
*Note Rin, although skinny, still weighs a good 8-10oz. She isn't a light figurine by any means.
nailed it!
You get an A for being funny, but as for actual useful information:Quote:

I dont have a toolset since I moved away, do you think if I just picked up a dremil tool it would work? Also, if you have any knowledge of which glues/ epoxies work better, that would be quite beneficial.Quote:

You could try to put the nail in there first, then get it out. Or you could insert a screw / nail from the bottom of the standard all the way into the foot, so you don't need to remove the head of the nail and you don't need glue.Quote:

First of all, what material is she made of?
Is the stand thing of the same material?

PVC of course and yah, it connects to another PVC landscape piece. On the bottom of the landscape piece, there are places for it to attach to the actual base.Quote:

If no, glue it using a proper pvc glue.
If yes, do what the other posts said.
Technically you dont need a nail, a bunch of toothpicks do the job aswell, easier to come by and easier to cut off etc.
Admit it, you broke her to look at her panties. ,_,
Ja Jong!
