    Hi, I need help. As the title said my fallen figures head has fallen off. I transformed it to robot mode, and i felt the head was loose. I checked it again a while later and that was when it started to rotate 360, the it just popped off! Its starting to look more like Shockwave. Is there any easy way to fix this?

    What version of The Fallen is this? I've got my Voyager Fallen right next to me and there's no possible way the head could rotate 360 degrees.

    You need to upload them to something like Photobucket first and then link them here.

    Okay, I think I might know what happened, but can you get a shot of the back of the head for us?

    Yup, you broke it. You twisted the part that the screw screws into right off. The Fallen doesn't have any neck articulation anyway, so gluing it back on won't hurt anything. And you will have to glue it back on. Or exchange it at the store for another one that's not broken.

    Same thing happened to me. But that was solved with a dab or two of Krazy Glue.

    Yup. Like Chaos Convoy said, it's broke. Short of pushing it back onto the mount (which you say you already tried), glue is the only way that thing is going back on. As long as you don't lock the sliding joint attached to the peg (the part connected to the "energy absorbtion" panels that flip out behind the head), you should be fine, since as also stated, the head has no real articulation anyway.

    Another option is to just use that as "Final Battle" The Fallen where Prime has taken his face, and wait for the blue-and-purple Fallen retool to get to store shelves sometime in the future (the one with the more accurate head and a staff).
