Not sure if this should go in the Pony Corral or not, but as it's a doll technical thing I thought I might have more luck here.
I bought a damaged EqG doll at the weekend for 50p (instead of £13!).
I couldn't leave her at the store broken and naked! Her leg has come off the joint, which is tearing in the middle (it's really hard to get a good photo of this). The joint is soft rubbery-feeling plastic and about 1cm thick (so I'm not sure breaking it off and reinforcing it with a metal pin is an option as I'm unsure how deep the joint is in the body).
So far my soft plan is to glue the tear and soften the plastic of her thigh hole enough using a hair dryer (I use this technique all the time to get errant Nendoroid parts to fit) to get it back onto the joint.
I've read a review on Amazon US that said the person had to split an EqG's leg in half along the seam to fix it but I really would rather not do this.
I've never tried to fix a doll like this before, so does anyone have any advice?
Here is Fluttershy before her bath (though I had unmatted her hair. Poor lass).
