I have a lovely G1 swoop which I was tightening up some joints on. Unfortunately, the superglue on the neck joint mustn't have completely dried when I stopped moving the joint, and thus his neck got glued stiff :o

When I discovered this later, there was much cursing.

Anyway, I got the joint free again but it got fairly mutilated in the process and it no longer sits straight in robot mode.

So does anyone have a junker swoop spare? I'd be a happy chappy if I had a donor for a neck transplant.

Take a pic of the part in question to confirm, so I can check if my junker swoop has anything to offer.

No problems, the broken bit is the grey part I've circled here.

Poor swoop.

Jgon, can you spare just that part from your Swoop? It'd make my week!

I can't really tell exactly whats wrong from your pic.

But regarding the area of concern, everything is intact on mine.

Please refer to the pic. This is the best image quality I can get with my webcam. The image sensor died on my cybershot.

Do you still have this junker Swoop? I am in need of its arms (both upper and lower, with screws that hold the black shoulder pieces together.
