Thanks for the replies!

The screw hole location is on the plastic part that connects to the die-cast part of the left arm assembly to the main body of the valk (i.e. the shoulder part). I'll try to take a clear pic of it for reference.

As an update and a warning: DO NOT USE TAMIYA PLASTIC CEMENT TO FIX A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. I didn't read the instructions on the bottle clearly and apparently Tamiya Cement uses a solvent to bond plastic. So what happened was that the cement actually dissolved the plastic in the hole, making the problem worse.

So now my only recourse is to refill the hole up with plastic repair putty and just carefully drill in a new hole for the screw. I guess I'm off to the hardware store to look for a suitable putty.

Oh, and I did try using a piece of plastic bag wrapped around the thread of the screw. But the screw is so small that the plastic bag just keeps slipping off. As for Loctite or CA glue, I'm hesitant to use them because they might melt the plastic further. I think I'll just fill up the hole with some epoxy filler for plastic.

As i remember, many parts in DX is from ABS. Because it's more stronger than usual PS (styrene). So, did you try that:

?

Wow! Looking forward for pics in another modes! Great job. Very nice model!

My wife will ban me from collecting if I buy this.

Awesome figure.

Same problem.

Nice figure.
