Today I received a Street Fighter Vega statue; however, both ponytails as well as the claws on his hand are broken. What's the best glue for mending this? Thanks so much!

I'm not too sure about the claws, but the ponytail is probably a clean break and should be no problem with just super glue. If you place it just right then you can hardly tell it was ever broken.

I initially did that with a broken one I got, even though I eventually asked SS for a replacement.

Everything can be repaired perfectly, member Schoorman of a German forum was able to fix a completely broken one (multiple breaks on pony tail, claws, hands, ...) and you can't even tell he ever was broken. So it's definately possible.

My Vega had also a claw broken and I used an instant nail glue (borrowed from my girlfriend), and it worked perfectly, I also used this glue for my Udon busts belt. The brand's name is "American Nails".

It's useful for small things, because there's a brush and it's very strong. :thumbs2:
