wrote this on the marvelous news forum but might help. i usually try this first before resorting to glue or dremel.


heat up some water in a microwave, not scalding hot, just hotter than warm. like maybe a mug of water for a minute and 40 seconds. dunk the problematic thigh in but not too long. just long enough so the plastic gets a little pliable. then you can squeeze the peghole into shape and dunk it in cold water to speed up the cooling process. pop it back onto the hip to test it out and hopefully it stays on pretty well. the technique also works for bending parts back into shape if the packaging messed it up. essentially you're bringing the plastic back to "default settings" since they weren't cast all funky and usually it's the packaging that screws toys up by putting stress on parts for however long they were imprisoned.
