Statue Help w/ Dagobah Luke PF

Now that I've had the Dagabah Luke PF for several years, I've noticed something disconcerting. The three straps that keep his boots "tied" are beginning to come loose and have almost completely come free of the material it was attached to when shipped.

This isn't a big deal because the boots aren't going to fall off, it's just not aesthetically appealling. I'm not sure if there is something I can do to get them to stick back to that material or if this is something that is the way it is. Anyone have any ideas on what to use to mend it?

Do you have a picture? I don't own the piece myself, but I'd like to see a picture of the issue.

I had the same problem with mine a few months ago. Used super glue, and that seems to hold them together just fine

Oh, I didn't read it like that at all! Don't worry.

Happened to one of my straps. Glue fixed the problem.

added a pic to the first post.

Ah, I see. Yea, some glue should do. If it's all fabric you can buy a special textile glue. I did so for my Maul PF.

looks like I'll be giving the fix a try with a little super glue.

I would suggest the textile glue .. supper glue might be to strong and "burn" through the fabric...

sounds good, I'll give that a go. I imagine I can get that at a fabric store?

Joans or michaels have it
