Had a lot of luck with all of my 25th GI Joes until this last batch. I picked up wave 2, and my Cobra infantryman has a broken left hand. It came right off at the wrist, and the peg is still in the socket in the arm. Can someone recommend to me how I could go about getting the peg back out? I have some *very* fine tweezers and thought I could extract it that way, but I had no such luck. I currently have a toothpick with a dab of plastic epoxy drying on the tip end of it (but not touching the socket, mind you), but I doubt seriously that the glue will provide enough tension to be able to pull the peg back out.
Also, does anyone have a spare left hand from a Cobra or Officer? If I had a replacement, I think I could forgo trying to extract the peg in one piece. I really don't want to waste this figure because of this, but I also don't want to glue his hand into place. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
