    Replacing Mego Knee Joints/Pins

    Hey Mego Brothas & Sistas! I was searching the forum for Mego Knee Pins replacement tutorial and couldn't find any...

    I have a 12" Mego with a broken pin at the knee joint. I bought replacement pins from Classic TV Toys but now the question is how I get the pin components to snap one with the other...

    Shouting here to the talented customizers and artists from this forum.

    Thanks for any help!

    Although I've not done it on a 12 inch figure, for the 8 inch figures, I put the pin in place and wrap a washcloth around it. This is to protect the plastic from tool marks. Using plyers on the wide setting, gently squeeze until you feel the pin pop into place.
