Ordred (and received today) the OG Supers in 15mm to supplement my 25-30mm supers.

One problem.

The mini-me of one of the supers managed to get the left hand of the Stretch character between it's legs and the base. Try as I might, I untangled the figures by inadvertently snapping off the left hand of the stretch. I have the hand – tiny.

So…

Brainstorming:

Do I try and drill/glue the hand back on?

Do I get some sculpting material and sculpt a new hand on?

Do I try and find a weapon (staff, blade, whatever) to attach to the stub?

Some other idea?

Gracias,

Glenn

I'd just take a little green stuff and reattach it. If it's the stretch guy it's no big deal if the arm gets a little longer.

Contact OG. They will probably replace it. I got one of the West Wind cowboys that had a bent barrel that snapped as soon as I took the figure out of the package. Got another pack as a free replacement. Theresa has great customer service.

Well, This was my fault IMO.

So no request for a replacement – it doesn't seem appropriate to me.

Besides, it's an "opportunity yo grow" as it were.

I'd say a bit of green stuff would be the way to go. Mister fantastic it all over the place, should be a really forgiving sculpt to do if your new to it.

I might also suggest adding a larger hand as well if your looking to pin it, and it give that whole bloated fist(or grasping hand) look as well.

Well, thank you!

Can't take any credit for my upbringing, my parents provided that but it seems the ethical way to live is the best in the long run.

Gracias,

Glenn
