    Ouch! Man, that's one of those that'a just a bitch to fix. Hope you can! I had to do that with a 'Quartz' figure that arrived broken.
    (Ya couldn't tell it was broken until you opened
    it , at which point the dealer wouldn't (naturally) take it back. He has big old ball joints and it was broken at the peg. I just had to cut the remainder of the peg off ang glue it in stiff. [img]graemlins/cry_smile.gif[/img]

    I dunno about that.. That's an expensive fix firstly, and I dunno if the head can be taken off. It's just upsetting.

    Well I mighta fixed him somewhat.. I used a dremel to drill a hole wide enough for the peg in his body, just a smidgin deep.. then glued the peg of his arm to the body.. Now just gotta be patient and let it completely dry and all.

    Glad to hear you got him fixed. More glad to hear that you're still here.

    you MIGHT be able to replace the peg with a length of coat-hanger...
    you'd have to drill new holes for it.
    I've done similar things for other figs before.
    sometimes it works, sometimes not...
