dwight bobblehead
very tragic day for me — my dwight bobblehead's cappa was detated.

IMG_1691

has this happened to anyone else? i want to reattach it somehow, but i feel like super glue isn't going to work because the head is so heavy. hmm.

That happened to me a couple years ago, shortly after I got mine. My husband did manage to reattach it with super glue. I'm careful now not to "bobble" his head too much, but he has been fine ever since! Good luck!

Mine broke too! I've said this before on this comm, but I'm too lazy to glue his head back on so I just keep it in my drawer. :P

Oh no! His cappa. Poor Dwight. I hope that it was as quick as he would have liked.

Good luck on getting him fixed.

Gorilla glue. Seriously, that shit can do anything. You can find it at Target, Walmart, Home Depot, or any place like that.

do you think it's better than super glue? or is there no real difference?

I do. I've had much more luck with GG than super glue or krazy glue combined.

Oh no! That hasn't happened to mine (*knocks on wood*), but like others have said, supergluing might work. I'd put the glue on the top of the spring first and then put the head on top of it rather than vice versa. Hope poor lil' Dwight can be fixed!

Superglue does work. My fella's Dwight's Cappa was Detated and we glued it right back on. This was months ago and there have been zero problems! Glue with confidence!

CAPPA WAS DETATED!
Ugh, thank you for using that.
I always try to use that expression and I can never remember for some reason...

I broke mine the day I got it on the S3 DVD release day. And I fixed it with super glue.
The thing has been riding on the dashboard of my car ever since bobble-ing away like it had never been broken.
(And I go pretty fast over the speed bumps on my street so I'm impressed it has stayed attached.)

Tragic! You should leave it like that as a homage to Ed Truck. Or you could just build a life-size robot statue (with an extension cord, in case it turns on you.)

It broke with me too! Like a year ago. I glued it back on and all is well now XD No sign of any head trauma THANK GOD.

Yes, super glue should work :)

OMG That happened to mine!
It was the literally the saddest day of my life!
I came into my room and found him on the floor, head rolled under my bed ... I screamed, "NOOOOOOOOO!"
Now my brother-in-law is in the middle of fixing it, he's attempting it with wire I think ... so it may still bobble ...

God speed ... to both of us.
