I received a male unicorn today that arrived in a too small inner box and he ended up with a snapped off horn….it seems to be a clean break as far as the horn break, I don’t want to drill out the inner post or anything but is there a glue that can hold the horn in there again?
edit: he’s good to go again!
4 things I'm looking for:
1. Mother Meerkat or the new one Melody is working on
2. production color Sitting Young Oriental dragons to be made in more colors besides VF, Brimstone would be awesome!
3. Female Griffin – Siamese with White

what would you guys recommend to keep the horn there without me having to hold it myself? he is still sitting broken right now…..

August 16, 2012 at 5:29 am #884812hmm, I haven’t tried either of those…I’ve currently got him propped up with props to keep the horn up with Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky glue but I will try those if this one doesn’t work out….
edit: let him dry for 24 hours just to be safe and it worked!
