    Don't know if this is the right place, so feel free to move it mods if i goofed up. So since you guys are great at all this stuff i figured i would go to the pro's for this one. my g2 snarl's tail broke off right at the back of the hinge where it goes flush with the end of the dinosaur body. i tried superglue but it didn't seem to want to hold it or dry. also, the peg on on the legs where it screws in at the knee joint snapped off and somehow the screw disappeared that it has to hold it in. What would be the best way and products to get my snarl back online?

    If you could take some photos of the damage, we might be able to advise you a little better.

    In case of gluing, you're probably going to need to use some sort of epoxy or plastic welder, as CA glues are brittle and don't stand up well to torsion.
