My daughter handed me her friends
broken Frankie when I picked her up from school.
"I told her you could fix it
mummy..."
No pressure
then!
Restringing isn't a problem but I
found the doll was missing the pin in her leg joint so cue some frantic
googling to find the answer.
The only thing I could find was a
YouTube vid where drilling was involved. Due to me being lazy, I couldn't be
bothered with all that technical stuff so after failing to fix it with wire
from an old paper clip, I tried fashioning a new pin / peg from the humble
cocktail stick. BINGO!
It's worked a charm :D
It's firmly wedged into place but I
also added a dab of superglue just to make sure it holds up to play :)
Wasn't sure if this info is of any
use to anyone but I found spending 10 mins with a cocktail stick a hell of a
lot easier than going down the drill / wire route!

Thanks you for your tutorial. Ma daughter was so sad after she has broken her Monster High doll's leg. I didn't know how to do because the peg was broken, but you show me that it's easy to change. I found another tutorial for the next step, here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=kt54DRsOK-s
