    All the slots that hold pins in my toys are snapping, Classics Rodimus is the newest victim. He's going to be expensive to replace. Why does this happen? I'm not rough with them at all and am always careful.

    Replace pins with toothpicks? Using a small drill make holes where the pins used to be and where the snapped parts are is there any way to anchor them out?

    Its not the pins, its what holds them in place, the little plastic loop. Thats 2 it's happened to now, 3 if you include the one last year. Its like the hinge moves but stays in place tearing the plastic loop.

    Hahaha, I did that once when I was a kid when G1 Powerglide's pins fell out (although years later I managed to find them or get another one). Even with those fat round toothpicks, it's still heaps loose.

    My HFTD Crankstart came with no ankle axis, was pissed at first but after stuffing a toothpick in there it now works just like the original. He's a bit wooden now!
