I bought the new MU Cable & his left hand snapped off its peg the second i took him out. Is there any effective way of fixing him?

Can you get the peg out of the wrist,drill it+the hand then glue and peg the two back together with a cut down metal rod??

Take a look at these

Drill the peg out and replace it with someone else's hand- or you could just glue the hand back on with Gorilla Glue (wont turn though).

well i fixed the problem by sticking the forearm in boiling hot water & the peg was able to come out with no problem & I only needed to krazy glue the peg & hand togethe rwith only one drop & i gave it 5 minutes to dry & i stuck it back in. Worked like a charm!!!!!

Glad you got it sorted,just go easy on that hand though,even tho its glued its still a weak spot,if it does break again i would really recommend pinning it....

Well i tried seeing if it would be sturdy enough to not break off before I put it back in & it was as if it didn't break
