I tried that green superglue krazy glue?

I tried epoxy. I let it sit and dry for a whole week and it snapped right off first thing!!!!!

both times the little leg snaps right off when you set it on the legs, it's ok rolling.

Is there anything else I can try?I hate to throw this away, even as much as it cost it wasn't well made but he still loves it.

thanks for any help. 1|1|Try contacting Thomas Station|ncbrunet|ncbrunet@aol.com|15:27:22|10/09/2008|

they may have a way to fix it, or if it is new, maybe they will replace it.

Not only glue it again (clean off the old glue 1st) but then use either duct tape or that black electrical tape & wrap it good around the leg, a few layers over the broken/glued area but above & beneath that area a little ways too. That way if the glue doesn't adhere so well again, the strong tape should provide reinforcement to help keep it from coming completely apart. Hopefully the leg is black or gray (there's also a clear kind of duct tape that's pretty strong too) cuz then the tape won't be so obvious. HTH. :)

My dd broke her fave barbie wand and I glued it back with gorilla glue, covered it in tape just to hold and let it sit for a week. Good as new. I didn't think it would hold since it was plastic but it has for 2 months. And the kids have dropped it a million times.
