Please re-attach with duct tape and chicken wire. It will fix anything.

Leave him that way. Like some esoteric joke. Or leave it as is and call it a rare exclusive lucky bag chase limited release version, and when questioned about its authenticity, scoff and roll eyes.

X-Plus makes great sculpts...and then they cut corners in production.
Too-soft vinyl, standing problems, bad joints...
Mine has been on my "to-fix" shelf for a little while (wicked forward lean and uneven feet-bottoms; he just can't be made to stand on his own), and my plan is to shim and glue the ankle joints, level the feet, then putty and paint over the joint breaks.

I think the kit builders like Frank would suggest drilling a tiny hole on both sides and using a pin to securely hold it back in place...

I'll certainly agree with the X-Plus standing issues. Pennies work wonders for that.

(to make sure it is positioned correctly) you've got a minute or so. the gel works great because it'll fill any voids up inside the leg. perfect for mending vinyl
