broken Imperial raider base pins

By nadaso8, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

I recently purchased an imperial raider and after attempting to remove the ship from it's base the base pegs shaped off inside of the ship. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to remove and replace the pegs or some other method of repair.

I was possibly going to add some small disk magnets into the base to help solve this problem in a more permeant way but wanted to se if another solution was available first.

hey mate

no there isn't usually a way to test changing over to magnets and just doing it
i magnetize my Epic ships with 6mm x 2mm Disc Rare Earth Neodymium super strong Magnets N35 6x2mm
get a 6mm drill bit and drill out the pegs (hand drill) if you can't remove them with pliers
set magnets in the ship first and remember which polarity you're setting them to
then just add another on the top of the base peg
the raider rear peg is a pain to get the ship even'd out so pay attention to that when making any conversion

hope this helps
