Attempts to do so, even to attach a new piece, really puts you at risk for damaging the figure or breaking it all together. On top of that, remember that the figure itself is over 15 years old, meaning the plastic quality has also had 15 years to degrade, making it even more of a risk to attempt to fix.

Many people have had success in tightening joints by using clear floor polish and an eyedropper to get it into the cracks, and then working the joint as it dries. I am not sure how Galactus's, joints are since I do not have this figure, but you might be able to make that work. Just be sure to test the polish on a small area on the figure to ensure that it will not damage the paint, and to clean up any excess so that it will not freeze the figure in other places.

I collect all sort of toys and dolls, and you kind of learn as you go along what deteriorates and what's not. I cannot count how many repairs I've done. I use invisible Mitre glue normally that's spray and glue, because it's invisible and hard as nails. Also the "horns" bend everytime I move house. I've have a box just for mr. G.
Thanks for the info! I'll leave it as is for now. I don't think it will bother me since I'm just going to find an nice spot on the shelf for it. I can alway mess with it down the road if I really have to, but hopefully I can restrain myself lol.

Now I have to find a good Silver Surfer and Fantastic Four team. I don't have any of either. Any suggestions for older figures or are these ones that I'm better off waiting for them to make new ones?
