Transformers ROTF Scalpel / Doctor Mod Leg Fix plus extras!

[EricCartman421]

ok serious question, have your toy's socket joints in the upper part of the legs split yet? cause all of them are like this, all 6 of them on mine cracked, and when I looked at the ones in the stores all of them had this problem, is there a way to fix this?

[chris24jc]

@EricCartman421 Yes, a few of mine have, luckily not all, but I'm cautiously gentle. I really wish they would have used a sturdier or rubberier plastic. Very disappointing on what is really a cool figure.

To fix it, I would use a small drop of super glue, let it seep into the crack, and try to pinch it closed while it dries, (while it's still on the leg. If you take it off, it will crack open again when putting the leg back on.) but move the joint around a bit while it dries.

@chris24jc Hmmmmmm truthfully I have tried glue before and it didn't go very well.....I could try again the way you did, thanks :)

[chris24jc]

@EricCartman421 Yea, it can be a tricky business... and with tiny joints like these, even more so. Best of luck! :)

good idea , but we have to be really careful . Mine broke last time when i was playing with it . this was one of my favorite scout class figure . too bad ...

[chris24jc]

@BlackSpid3y Yeah, tell me about it... this figure is fragile enough already. It sucks cause he's a really cool figure. I wish they made the legs out of a more rubbery soft plastic or something more durable. The fragility of it makes me not want to transform him as much.

[BlackSpid3y]

@chris24jc yeah exactly ... i fell the same way . i mean its cool but even the eyes pop out sometime .

[chris24jc]

@BlackSpid3y LOL. I'm not sure mine has that eye problem... What are you doing to surprise Scalpel so much that he does a cartoon double take? LOL!

[BlackSpid3y]

@chris24jc #LOL ... maybe he don't like kids so he rather pop his eyes out :)

[chris24jc]

@archrom1 Thanks! Always glad to hear positive feedback!

Just bought one, the legs broke.. this toy sucks.

[chris24jc]

Yes, that is the worst part about this toy, is that those legs are SOOOO fragile. One of mine was cracked fresh out of package!

A little drop of super glue will help!
