howdy,
i did some searches for keywords but couldn't find an answer (if it's out there, please let me know). i just won some of the 1997 3 packs on ebay which have come unglued from the cardbacks (pretty common). i would like to secure the bubbles to the cards - for display, not resale. what works well? thanks in advance! |

If the cardboard is not torn up, just the glue wearing out over time, I'd use a white glue stick. Like the kind kids use in elementary school. Once it dries, it's invisible. I had a G1 Transformers Beachcomber MOC with a bubble that had come half way off over the course of 20 years. I used a butter knife to apply some of the glue stick material to the card. Worked like a charm and you'd never know the difference.

I've used this glue before for that exact purpose:
Apply in thin coats using a good artists quality small size paintbrush, you will need to weigh down the boarder of the bubble while it dries but it's liquid so it goes on smooth and dries 100% clear. Definitely recommend it.
