    Female body plastic pin to hold band through neck

    Hi, maybe I am just missing it but can we purchase the plastic pins that hold the band through the neck on the female figures. I see where we can get the bands themselves but I cannot find those pins.

    ...any thoughts and thanks

    Why not just restring it with elastic cord and tie a knot at the top of the neck post?
    I’ve been fixing female Megos like this for years, never been a problem?

    If you have to have something go to Michaels and get a dowel in the hobby section
    The right diameter to fit through the elastic hole (about 1/16”) and with a sharp exacto
    Cut it to fit and slip into the elastic to anchor it.

      I have used spare plastic from a sprue in a similar fashion. Really just about anything works.

        Thanks for the suggestions, I have used a part of a finishing nail and that worked great. I was looking for an original though just to have for replacement parts.

        Thanks again.
