I'm not a customizer, but I bought a Batman custom and his arm broke off. What do you recommend to glue it back on for a strong hold?
Thanks!

His arm fell off? Just pop it back in, right?

They make a glue just for plastics, you can get it at any craft store. Several different brand names to choose from.

You see, this Batman was one of monstr. squad's first custom, and he popped off the arms to paint it. but they actually broke off.
He didn't tell me that the he broke and glued the arms back on but that was okay. So I got Bats and as I pull him out of the package, the glue in the left arm "gave out" and his arm came off.
