Question: Keeping Statue on Base

Hi,

I have a Harley Quinn Black and White First edition that I picked up recently. The statue stands fine but if you pick it up it separates from the base.

What can I use/do to support the statue firmly on the base so it can be picked up without it coming apart? I would like to avoid using glue or something along those lines to minimize potential damage.

The base contains two small holes connect to two metal pegs on one heel of the statue.

Kindly advise.

Thanks!

You can apply some super glue to a toothpick and spread a thin layer inside the base holes and wait for it to dry before putting the statue in. That way it should stay connected with friction if you do not want to glue the entire thing together. If you do not want to use glue at all you can wrap the pegs with a thin layer of paper, which should also allow it to stay connected with friction.

thanks for the tips, will give the paper a try first before going to the glue.
