I had a repair question for a go-bot. Anyone know how to fix Leader-1's droopy wings?

Find him a nice curvy girly go-bot to play with.

My Go-Bots are not allowed to fraternize with the TF's, and I don't think a female Go-Bot was ever made.

Crasher and Pathfinder were both female off the top of my head. Mine's wings droop too, I'd say just a scrap of paper in the hinge should make him more displayable.

I had no idea they were women. I have both. The paper will work, for now. Thanks!
If you want to try it.........

This is going to sound nuts........but if you can get the wing pin out of the toy.....try putting a scant teeny tiny amount of super glue or if you're not so sure and want to test first.....some paint on the pin where the plastic makes contact with the metal and allow it to dry.
I find magnets are wonderful for holding metal parts while they dry. I haven't ever fixed a Go-Bot like that though, so I don't know if the metal is ferrous or not.
Anyhoo........
Re-insert the pin when dry and the added material on the pin should make enough friction between the parts to make the wing stand on its own. The small amount of space between the pin and plastic should make it so that any dust that will wear off will stay on the toy in the cracks of the affected areas and not affect the standing up ability of the wing section.
I have some Turbo and Crusher parts I can scrounge up. You want them? I'll even cover the shipping and all.

I think I'm good on parts, I have some extras, too. The only thing I'm looking for is Defendor and a green Cy-Kill. Oh, and some Courageous/Grungy fists. I need a black left one, and orange right one.

Is it the 'Super Go-bot' version Des (large sized)? He comes with odd stickers that most folks don't recognize.

That's a 'G2' Leader-1. If there's such a thing as a 'serious' Go-Bot collector, he might be worth something semi-decent. Bandai only released G2 Gobots (Robomachine) in Europe. Die-cast in 1993! Unheard of!

I think by order of working it out (he was in a the auction site lot) I paid about $0.2 for him.

So true - I like to taint Mrs S's colourful displays of Care Bears and rainbow brite with funny stuff..... remember Pee Guy?
I'm getting her a set of zombies this Christmas. Oh - and an Albert Einstein figure to go with Jesus. Don't ask

Ah yes they had an 'unintentional robot rape sequence' look in non toy talk for the thread.

If Your Still Wondering About The "LooseNess" Im Wondering If Drops Of Soda, Or Some Other Liquid That Turns Sticky When Dried, Cause It Would Be Able To Leak Into The Pin Holes Pretty Easy. Dont know Just An Idea That Popped In My Head.
