Righty then, not sure where to put this thread, so I'll try here. Basically, I've managed to score a Generations Metroplex for a non-ludicrous price. No Scamper, no stickers, slightly yellowed, but the biggest problem is the main gun: The hinged handle part has broken off completely and has gone missing, so it can't be held or mounted on the shoulder properly. I thought I'd be content just sticking it to his shoulder with blutak and simply enjoy having a sizeable representation of Metroplex for my MP collection, and I can live with the other flaws. But the knackered gun is driving me mad. I've asked around for a spare gun (no chance), looked for available upgrade kits (even less of a chance) and checked out shapeways UK for any 3d printed parts, but no luck so far. Soooo, does anyone have any ideas about how I can get some sort of fix for this problem? I don't have access to 3d printing, and I'm not handy enough to bodge something on my own, so am I stuck watching ebay and hoping for a miracle, or is there another option? Anyway, thanks.
DK-03G Gear Master Accessory Series Upgrade Kit Would this work? Im buying two for my metroplex and while its advertised for fortmax remember he and plex share the same hands and i do believe forearms.
You could use some of the heat moldable plastic (check Amazon) to craft a handle. It might not turn out as well as a printed one but it will be cheap and easy
