My 1:1 Salacious ear broke - fixable?

[Praetorian380]

Well, this sucks.....the right ear (his left) broke in half.

Not sure how it happened. came home from work and it was just lying on the floor.....may have been our cat, i dunno. Regardless, his ear is broken.
Its a clean break, in fact, when I set it back on where it should be you cant even tell it has been separated.

I am wondering if I can just glue it back on?

Anyone hear have any experience fixing polystone?
Or have any suggestions on how I could fix it?

This sucks! I am so bummed.

I'm sure something can be done. You can try super glue, but epoxy would be stronger. I think the ears might actually be mostly fiberglass. What does it look like inside?

Zap a Gap or Gorilla Glue should do the trick, post a pic and we can know for sure.

First get rid of the cat.

Cats and collectibles don't mix, period.

Agreed. Put it in a case. No, not the cat, the statue.

So is Zap a Gap, Gorilla Glue an epoxy?

whats the difference between an epoxy and super glue? sorry I am really not good with this stuff.

Superglue will do the trick. If it looks like that when you hold it together, you should have no problem with making it look good.

You got lucky that it was a clean break. Your cat probably thought the tufts of hair on the ends of the ears made it a cat toy.

That is polystone so super glue will work fine, don't use too much though it will leave it a shiny trail if it touches the paint (seeps out of the too much).

don't use Gorilla glue in this application. it foams up and out and will show. I would say super glue. but don't over do it.

That really sucks. I have to be careful with my kids, since some of my items are reachable for them and I could face the same situation anyday. I definitely have to think of something to protect my items. By the way, that Salacious Crumb looks awesome, but I always thought it had flexible ears and such.

that sucks man !!
I hope you can fix it.
