Lady Lovely Locks - Repairing a Broken Neck - Any Ideas?
« on: October 18, 2014, 07:44:13 PM »
Just got Ms. Locks in the other day, but her neck broke during shipment!  There were two bits of plastic that shattered from her neck.  I happen to have the biggest piece, but the missing bit is somewhere in the car!  I highly doubt I'll ever find it.

So...and ideas on how to repair this so that it closely matches her neck?  I'd hate to scrap her because her legs are flawless (and not all regrind-spotty like most).

The unexpected happemed!

While I was picking up spare change from my desk, I found tge missing piece!  Maybe it stuck in the envelope and fell onto my desk?

I managed to fit the two pieces together and spread Tacky Glue over the area.

Not a permanent fix, but I wont go nuts every time I see a gaping hole on her neck!

Are you sure there were no tears before she was shipped? You should try to get a refund either way, she was oviously badly packed! A broken neck devaluates your LLL a lot.


Your best bet is a Stacy (Barbie's little sister) donor. They have the same body. Or simply another LLL, they're not too hard to find.

Do you have more dolls in your collection?
