How to fix broken pegs.
 
well my Dc collectibles Arkham city series 2 Hush fell off his shelf and well...

What can I do to fix it? The peg snapped in half... Im thinking of just buying a whole new figure

NoodleChow 05-17-2012 01:25 AM

is there a peg that goes through the forearm that you can remove? possibly with heat? and own a dremel? i'd say to try finding a throwaway toy with a similar sized peg/disc as hush's elbow and replacing it. like a 3 3/4 scale figure's ball hip joint. basically pop the peg out of the forearm, replace the disc with the donor, pop peg back in. dremel an appropriate sized hole into the remnant of the elbow peg and pop the arm back in. otherwise glue the whole thing in place or buy a new one if it's convenient.

I superglued the arm back in but I have no dremel/extra pegs

DogFashionDisco 05-17-2012 01:35 AM

It's in your personal display right? Sounds fixed to me.

yeah i'd say buying a new one is fine if you wanna still be able to pose him. trying to get the peg out and gluing or put a screw through it maaaaaybe will work but from experience it'll never be quite as durable as replacing the disc/peg.

Blastbull 05-18-2012 01:00 AM

WOW. decided to change my riddlers pose and the second I moved his wrist it snapped off. Either I have the secret strength of the Hulk or my set of figures just sucks. This has NEVER happened to me before no broken figures.... Now I have 2 out of 5 from one line broken

DogFashionDisco 05-18-2012 01:08 AM

Yeah, whats up with that? I think you might have talked me out of buying Hush at some point. I'd probably trade you a Doom chair for it though, haha.

Ill probably be buying a new hush anyway. These figures are china dolls man. I swear I posed him once when I got him and decided to change it up and was in disbelief at how easy the wrist came off. Also ive had figures fall off shelves 2-3 times and they still work perfectly. I cant believe this I hope noone else encounters this problem. Then again I did get them on 5/03 so maybe in like 6 days everyone elses figures will slowly disintegrate like mine.

Edit: Also when I first opened my Hush figure the trigger was bent 90 degrees to the side. I slowly bent it back and as soon as It was perfect the little trigger broke off the gun! I mean what is this madness!
