A little disappointed with this purchase.

Review at Over the Hill Gaming

Bummer. I would just pin and glue that broken leg together, and then attach the whole thing to big enough base to keep it from falling over again. It still looks like a cool mecha.

Cool looking model. you might even try magnets.

Screw the articulation and just glue the thing together. Sounds like you would have to do so anyway.

Yeah, glue the beast into a good pose. Use either liquid plastic cement or thin superglue, and park the beast on a heavy base.

Yeah, it looks like gluing it back together and gluing it to a stable base is the best way to go. Thanks for the advice, guys!

What McWong said: who needs play value on a wargames piece?

I have to say it loooks rather neat: I'd pay $20 USD for one if big stompy robots was in my viewing window.

I'd probably have to base it on something (bearing in mind your stablity concerns)

Looks interesting, at $20 USD, I'd get 4…

Then again I kitbash like crazy. Where'd ya get them?

These used to be absurdly expensive. Where are they selling for $20 USD now? I agree with previous posters, just fuse the joints into an acceptable pose. We don't need no stinkin' poseability in our wargame pieces!

The source I used dried up. However, I know that they are still on sale on Amazon (USA) for $21.99 USD.

The Rangers Project mechs have those tiny feet, so I've already planned out that one will be based as a normal fig with pins, and the others will use the Gunpla stands my FLGS carries like this: link

Freestanding figs with legs are too much trouble.
