Accidentally broke my VAH chopper leg.
The shaft of the foot joint is stuck inside
What should I do?

Either way, the shaft won't survive.
Even if it did, the joint won't last if you manage to glue it back
>>5548467
so if I manage to take the shaft out destroyed how can I fix it?
I was just thinking about supergluing the foot back on and not touching it ever again
Talk to Papi or Mellow or one of the other usuals in the customs thread. You can't save the joint so might as well ask them how to replace it.
>>5548468
You can only fix it if you get a replacement joint via buying similar parts, recasting, 3D printing, etc
Otherwise, just glue it fixed

thanks I will give this a try.
wasn't expecting the VAH Chopper to be so fragile.

You're better off ignoring >>5548484 and just getting a new joint. That image he linked to might be valid for styrene model kits but glue won't work on the types of plastics they use for figure joints. Instead of having a non moving glued part of the figure you can actually get it functioning again by replacing it.

Does AmiAmi sell replacement parts?
>>5548424
>What should I do?
Fix it, retard
>>5548507
>glue won't work on the types of plastics they use for figure joints
Yes it will, I've drill-pinned tons of figure joints with regular superglue and had no problems.
>>5548508
If you got it from Amiami, they might be able to hook you up with a new foot. Just say "I-it came like that!!"
>>5548497
Well his arms and legs look really tiny. You hamhand.
How is Vah Chopper btw?
>>5548424
Throw it in the trash, as fitting for your taste in anime.
It hardly looks like it's meant to move to begin with

Whew, someone's on their period.
