After disrobing a few of my childhood megos, I discovered a couple of limbs broken beneath the joints, that I had mended with masking tape as a child. I cleaned the 25+ year old residue off and discovered that simply using a small dab of hot glue from a hot glue gun nicely mended the broken limb.
After pushing the severed pieces together, hot glue will ooze out from the broken edges...do not fret. Once the hot glue has cooled completely, slimply chip/ peel the excess glue away, ancd presto...you have a pretty strong fix.
This is perfect for the display piece, especially if you want to keep an original piece together until you locate an adequate replacement.
Just thought I'd share my fix...Hope it helps...I have to fix a Dr. Zaius soon, perhaps I'll post a pic of the process....
