  1. Well guys, I have some great news~! My Luna figure arrived in the mail today! :D

    BUT...

    Spoiler

     

    The tail fell off, due to it being in used condition. :pout: I know that this would make a lot of you want to slam your head into a wall until you knock yourself out, but I honestly don't mind too much. What I want to know is...

    What kind of adhesive should I use to bond it back together? I already tried a form of superglue, and that didn't work at all. I just want to know what you guys and gals would recommend; I don't want the end of the figure to just become so caked in worthless adhesives that it's beyond repair. Should I even bother to fix it at all, and just buy a new one, or its there some kind of glue or epoxy that works really well on these kinds of figures?

    Thank you very much in advance for an responses; it helps a lot~! :squee:

      Thank you very much for the suggestion, @GrimGrimoire~! :grin: I'll be sure to keep this in mind!

      I would have used Gorilla Glue in this situation, but we only had the Original Super Glue Gel... which didn't work at all. :please: I eventually decided to just use a manual drill to punch a hole in the tail and and end, place a dowel into the hole, and just use glue to reinforce it. It may not have been he best solution, but it seems to have worked just fine for now.

      If this doesn't hold up, though, I'll be sure to use your method! :fluttershy:

      Nice purchase you got there!:smug:
      Sorry to hear it's broken, but it's no biggie, if you have some Vinavil or something similar!
      Actually, maybe Vinavil isn't really resistent, so I wouldn't actually know which glue suggest, but I hope you can find an effective one!
