    Hey folks,

    I have a beautious Deluxe Dead End, and his only issue (aside from a nasty case of chicken legs, of course), is that his head is a little loose on the neck. That is, it spins around at the slightest nudge of the figure. Possessed? Maybe.

    Any ideas as to how to fix this, or am I stuck with ROTF Deluxe Beetlejuice? He's one of my fave figures regardless, but tightening up his neck would be awesome.

    You can probably get a replacement figure for about $4 from a member here. Search the sales thread.

    A thin coat or two of glue, nail varnish, or gloss cote, will probably fix it.

    Thanks so much! I'm not looking to replace the figure, so I'll try the glue/nail varnish, etc. Just apply it along the neck then?
