So, I just received an eBay Mugato in a cut-bubble package that otherwise would be dead mint, if not for the fact that both legs are broken at the knee joint pin. The seller has been understanding on it and should be refunding me back a good part of what I paid, considering a broken Mugato is worth far less than a mint Mugato would be.
However, that still leaves me with a minty Mugato that doesn't have a leg to stand on. The pins are still there, but are of course snapped off from the inside point.

So is there a way to actually repair the joint, or is it a lost cause? Would I have to source a replacement pin somehow, or a pair of unbroken legs? Has anyone successfully fixed a broken pin?
I'm sure this has come up many times before, since it's one of most common things to be broken on Megos (if not THE most common). I have an otherwise mint Andorian as well with the same injury to one leg.
