Hi there,
I've noticed that on some of my older minifigs, it is quite common for a
crack to appear in the underside of the arm thereby making the hand very
loose. I've thought of seeking out replacement arms to solve the problem
but thought I'd check to see if anyone else has had a go at repairing
broken arms. Can replacement minifig arms be purchased anywhere and how
hard is it to remove the arms from a minfig anyway?
Cheers,
Stephen
