funko 2.0
my lil guy fell in love with these when he saw them at the con.....he bought the blue comic con batman and scammed Brian into selling him, bat-girl for 3 cents
he's counting down the days til the new ones are released from Brians count that was given to my son there should be 34 days left til the new ones come out.
yes, I've created a monster. anyways his blue comic con batman's head will not stay on the body and he is mighty upset. does anyone know where I can find another? were these sold out at the con? I don't see it in the funatic store or on Geminis site. Thanks for the help.

Sad to say, no Comic Con pieces. That's the date for the regular issues. For Con pieces it's eBay or a web store.

I know the Gid Green Lantern pieces sold out unless Brian found more. They seem to be very popular. I bought a Green Lantern and a Blue Metallic Batman for my personal stash. These should do very well.

Re: funko 2.0
Be careful with super glue as it will have a reaction with the paint and/or vinyl. At least that's in my experience.

Yep, Super Glue is dangerous. My understanding is that it tends to melt plastic to make piece A stick to piece B. I'm not sure what happens with pieces C to Z, so maybe if you skip A and B you'll be OK.

yeah I know, thank you for the reminder though. maybe I'll leave it as is and just stick a glu dot into it and hope that it will hold.

Works great on loose monkeys, like Bubbles.

Re: funko 2.0
If Gorilla Glue is anything like the Elmers Ultimate, it expands as it dries and can make a mess when dealing with our beloved Funko. So, if you decide to use it, use a very small amount and keep Batman upside down so it doesn't drip down. It's very strong though. I used it to secure my Ikea bedroom furniture so the screws would stop popping out.
They make latex glues that work well. They don't bond particularly fast in a lot of cases, but it will hold. Go to a craft store or hobby shop and ask them there what would work well for plastic collectibles.

Re: funko 2.0
I always used what they call "epoxy glue" when ever I had to glue anything Funko together. Like when the spring that the head bobbles on becomes unattached from the base. I think you can find it at places like Home Depot and it says that it is safe for plastic and PVC.
(I just found a tube of it in a drawer here still attached to the blister card it came in.
