Argh! Zeronos figure broken!

[Exo_Kopaka]

I just got this Zeronos figure, along with others, in the mail today.

Now, I let my nephew play with them, and I don't know what he did, but he told me he was trying to get Zeronos to do a "Rider Kick" and his leg just snapped off.

The knee piece that connects to the two parts of the legs is broken. Now, you might know that this figure, it's knee cap piece has peg sockets (holes) and then the legs have pegs (pieces which fit through the hole). The knee piece's bottom porton's socket is snapped in half, and thus making the hole useless.

This description is very vague, so refer to these pictures:

Now, I want to note that my brother sucessfully removed the peg on the bottom piece of the leg, or shin, or whatever you call it.

Theoretically, I could just super glue the knee back together, stick the shin back on, and stick the peg into the holes.

However, from my Rodimus figure being destroyed by super glue, I am not sure if I should use super glue. Anything in particular I should use?

I'm pretty sure you guys are very proficient in making custom toys and repairing toys, so I just wanted to ask.

And please, if you have something related to "HOW it broke", refain from posting. I honestly don't care how it broke, rather, I'm more worried about fixing it.

Zeronos fans, commence crying.

use a tooth pick and spread it on broken area lightly that should keep super glue from destroying your zeronos. remember when dealing with superglue you have to have patience.. i mean you do have patience at least enough to ask for an alternative to super glue. once it drys use a blow dryer to heat up the peg and you should have no problem popping it back in.

Rule #1) DO NOT let Children play with Tokusatsu toys. They just end up breaking them.

Alot of my DX Mecha were destroyed due to my little brother.

that sucks the same thing happend with my garo wing form or whatever ya call it I just went to move/adjust the wing a bit & SNAP! Freaking fragile things....

& if these things are so fragile how the heck do they get relased over in japan?.. If a toy broke that fast over here you can bet parents would be calling up hasbro or mattel & bitching to no end here!

That has got to be the most awesome irony ever.

the superglue thing should work
my Kamen Rider Fiaz SH (well at lest 3 of them) where broken in the same place, it was as if the HK versions were all designed brokem, and I done the superglue thing to fix mine, and they all have there movement (only thing is too much man handling will tear there leg off again so I just keep them stood up)
