Just got the Classic Predator and it broke! Please help!
Hey everyone. I just got the Hot Toys Classic Predator from Predators. I opened the box and everything was ok. I tried to move the left arm at the elbow and the gauntlet broke off. The actual peg is still there but the arm is broken off. It still lights up though. I included some pictures of just where it broke. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I can move the legs and the other elbow fine, but it does take some effort.
This was my first ever Hot Toys purchase and I really like the paint and sculpt.
Thanks.

What kind of glue would you recommend? Gorilla glue?

Sideshow would undoubtedly work with you on getting a replacement. Their customer service is top-notch. I wouldn't attempt to glue it, since you'll risk a decrease in value. Just send it in and get a new one in perfect condition.

Superglue.... this is cause by the weak glue that HT uses.... It's not a true breakage...
I'll pop the peg out of the arm before gluing it....
