    Rin was a happy girl at one time
    Spoiler!


    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.

    Drill a small hole in the foot + standard. Get a nail and remove the nail head. put some glue in the foot and stick half the nail in there, wait for it to dry and do same in the standard = fixed :')

    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.

    You don't really need a whole bunch of tools, all you need is a drill and a way to cut off the head of the nail. You can get those easily. You can try to get a hole in the foot / standard in different ways, but I don't know the material so I wouldn't know which ones you could use. 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.

    Also, look up some glues for which materials, you can look up which you need.

    This is important.

    In the end, playing legit pays off.

    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.
