Either way the cheapest alternative would be looking for a fake that will fit as replacement for the missing ball joint by replacing the entire part. Although it is hard to find one if you're looking for a 1/100 kit. You can do a tedious search for a similar sized bead and with some grease work (fig of speech) you can replace the missing ball joint. This is also the trick for modding a movable leg ball joint for those tricky display positions. If you have other Gundam Seed model kits of the same scale, I think you can swap those parts with a little help from epoxy or plastic putty for adjustment. You may also need to clean up and paint it properly to get better result. Good Luck though... ;D |
