iMissing Peg!n/a

So two months ago when i was in Tokyo, I was able to buy GSC's Sengoku Nadeko 1/8 Scale Figure (item #31747) from the Mandarake. As soon as i opened her, I realized she was missing a few small parts:

I'm finally back in my room after the long trip and I'm trying to set up all my figures, but she is my main concern. Now, I'm not so sad about the fact that i'm missing the two little er.. sticks? But the missing peg worries me! She is able so stand fine on her own, but since I do get angsty and stomp around my room a lot, I'm afraid she will fall from my shelf.

What should I do to ensure the fact that she stays standing? Does anyone want to sell me those beautiful sticks and peg?

P.S. When i bought her, the hat was a bit hard to remove, so I ended up forcing it off. And then... DESPAIR!!!

I wasn't planning to display her without her hat, but I would like to fix this. I read Mikatan's post on Scuffed Paint (http://gscmikatan.wordpress.com/2011/04/04/diy-figure-repairs-part-3-scuffed-paint/) and it seems pretty doable. However I already have acrylic paint, which I heard would work as well. Which do you guys think is better?

If what said below fails, you might be able to contact GSC, I've contacted them before with figma/nendoroid problems and they've sent replacement parts/replacement figures out by EMS

Once, I ordered item #47275 brand new from mandarake and she had a missing arm, which was not mentioned in the description, and they offered me refund, or a replacement arm they could ship with my next order, so I asked for that, a few weeks later with my order I unpack a whole brand new Kuroko petit, so they are very good with customer services ^_^

Merleawe (9 months ago) #1071791You can contact mandarake, and they usually either offer a partial money refund, or a full refund if you send the figure back to them :)
I would try this, but then again, usually Mandarake will list if a figure is missing parts, so they really shouldn't be liable for it.
