Re-seal an action figure

Hey guys,

I have an issue in my collection of Reboot action figures. I own all the models but my adult Enzo his plastic cover have detached from his cardboard backdrop.

Do you have a solution for me so it looks seal? I try school glue stick but doesn't hold well

If the plastic took any of the cardboard backdrop with it, it'll be very hard to make it look right if you're trying to reseal it.

If this is for your personal collection then you can try really any stronger glue in small amounts (cement glue or whatever clear liquid). If you're trying to reseal it to resell, it'll be very hard to trick any potential buyer that it was never opened as there may be glue bubbles, etc

I'd use a hotglue gun, if you're careful it will be an almost invisible fix and it will provide a good bond as it's flexible even when its 'set'
