I was picking up my b-wing of the table and I dropped it. You guessed it the peg going into the back of the b-wing snapped, any suggestions for a fix or should I suck it up and buy another one.

There are some solutions to this.
I prefere magnets. Brassrods or thick copper wire seem to be great to.

Edited by SOLAR FLAREi drilled out where the peg sits in the minature, then magnetised. the B wing will spin on that one axis, i used 2 of 1.5x3mm rare earth disc magnets
Simple solution: place it in a small box and mail it to me. Here at my ranch, we take care of all kinds of ships that have been hurt and in need of care and nurturing, where they are free to roam, romp and rest.
Just be sure to poke some air-holes in the box.
But seriously, glue could do it if you have all the pieces and the right glue. But with my meat hooks, I've found that it too is a bit fragile.
Also, you can get a two-part clear epoxy. Squeeze out a pea sized amount & mix the two parts thoroughly. Spread it on with a toothpick or similar onto the parts and join them. Then let it cure. Try and wear gloves too and make sure you have an open window or door.
Or magnetize if you're up for it.
Drill a small hole into where the peg was attached and drill into the peg itself as far as where it starts to curve around and down, get a small panel nail cut it to size and glue that into the peg and then glue it into the old peg hole.
This is how I pinned my B-wings that I repositioned.
If you still have the peg, I HIGHLY recommend Loctite Superglue Gel. Fixed up a few pegs that me and my friend snapped >_> (front of the Raider, Outrider, Decimator, and a T-65 X-Wing... keep us away from your miniatures!)
