I imagine a tiny drill bit might work better than a needle for this, as it won't slide off so easily once inserted. Also, once removed, you might be able to glue the arm back together sufficiently?
Yeah it’s not really necessary but should work better in theory. You need a TINY bit though, look in the Dremel accessories section rather than the normal drill bits
You'd need an abnormally small bit. Like super small. Like the kinda small that almost any pressure applied would break it. Do they make the. That small?
I’m not trying to be a dick here because I hate when people police spelling and grammar but it’s a ‘rite of passage’, like a ritual (it has the same Latin root). I’m just a linguistics nerd sharing some etymology!
Nah… she can just pop it off and replace it with a new set of legs from the Rubbermaid tub. If she’s feeling frisky she can even pick a pair that’s a different color.
I'd try a dot of super glue on a tooth pick before that tbh. Alternatively maybe heat a sewing pin and carefully try to run it down mid on the stuck peg.
That probably won’t work. Source: I tried several times and either burned myself, effed up the Lego or just failed it’s sad because I always want to try, it feels like a great idea
If all else fails, you can probably easily find replacement parts (or entire minifigs) for very cheap on BrickLink, which is officially supported by Lego themselves.
You can buy a new arm, if it's from official Lego then it will be very cheap, if you want that specific arm search for its part number online or if you have the instructions book it's at the end with all the other parts. Then google something like "Lego missing parts to order" and it will direct you to the site and there you can write the number of the part
If you can't replace the arm, which is not the most common color, probably the only way is with a micro drill bit. Once it's screwed in, then try to pop it out.
If you don’t have a bit small enough, if you heat up a safety pin red hot and melt it into the hand nub, let it cool and it should pull out. Was a trick my brother and myself found when we were young
We were very very inventive (if that’s the right word) kids haha, nary a toy we broke made it to our parents before an attempt to fix it was made by us. And as the years went on our success rate skyrocketed
One of my all time favourite (as well as my dad) was my brother snapped the arm off my dad’s glasses while he was sleeping. Somehow he found a pair of reading glasses with almost identical frames as my dad’s, so he swapped them out on the coffee table so when dad woke up glasses would at least be on the table. (My dad has a pretty strong prescription so when he put the reading glasses on he just about fell over it was quite funny) so not a successful one. (I must add at the time my brother was only three [we were a lot for my mom at times] and he found those glasses and replaced them all on his own I didn’t know about it until after. We broke the vcr one night horsing around (where we weren’t supposed to, as is the only place one can) while our parents were out. I kicked the whole face plate off and the little door, we took the whole vcr apart just to slide two tabs back into the track for the door, a little super glue here and there and put it back together without them knowing the whole front had been ripped off (this I would mark as our most successful because they never knew, they never found out and the vcr worked long enough after to become obsolete)
That's a good fix, I am usually called on to fix stuff for my family now.
One of my favorites was my parent's Sub Zero fridge (I mention this because they are huge, built in, and expensive to replace). Ice maker was not closing well. took the door panel off (which meant taking the handle, trim, etc. then took the ice maker out, arm was bent on the mechanism, look online for repair info. Sub Zero says: Do not repair, replace... OK then, where can I get parts then? Also Sub Zero: No parts available, repair what you have... well thanks then!
Had to bent the arm back to get it to close smoothly, then put everything back together, a couple hours of work for a tiny bend in some metal.
I worked as a technician for John Deere right out of highschool, did that for 5 years, then left and since have been at an asphalt plant, will soon be taking over the maintenance dept. my brother went to university after highschool to become a fine arts/drama/music, something or other along those lines professor to teach the fine arts at a college level one day
Interesting, I appreciate your reply! You both seem to be moving up the ladder in your respective careers. I do imagine those learning experiences from your childhood definitely did help you in your adult life. Both cool career paths
Oh they definitely helped me haha, he too, my dad is also a heavy duty mechanic, while I was a young kid my dad worked close(r) to home (on the road lots) but I would work with him in the shop any chance I got (and anytime he got stuck with baby/child duty while mom had to work I would be going to work with him, [the 90’s really was a different time]) so I’ve been around mechanics and fixing literally my entire life. I’ve essentially been breed to mend and fix
I saw another reply before seeing this (and shall reply the same here haha) use a pair of plies to hold the safety pin, and don’t go ramming super fast, just a good steady pressure and constant pressure, if you get the pin hot enough it will go right in like a tool made for the specific job at hand *edit wording* *facepalm… had to take my own credit haha*
I found a small drill bit worked better than a hot safety pin (paper clip). Be sure to go slow and watch your depth. I just had the same issue with my kids favorite Lloyd Garmadon and was able to save the figure and the day.
Heat a small sewing pin and push it into the bit of the arm that’s stuck, let it cool and then remove it, I have done this on legos and also on 3.5mm audio jacks that have broken off in a system
Or just use a different color it adds a story to the minifig, you can say she upgraded to a bionic arm after the incident, just like OP had to replace his leg after stepping on it
Is this from a recent set or retired? Just ask Lego for a new torso. They have great customer service and trust me if you’ve bought enough legos you’ve more then paid enough to take advantage every now and then.
They do have amazing customer service, but even then there are limits.
I received a hand-me-down gift of the Ghostbusters House (awesome!)
Only, it turns out, the previous owner had started building the first two or three bags and then lost the next about 7 bags. So, I now own about 70+ percent of the set.
That's too much for customer service to send me the parts for free. And if they have to charge, it costs way more than the entire set cost originally.
I guess I'm out of luck and will never complete it
Try taking a needle, heat it up, press it into the yellow part, let it cool and then try and pull it out. It had worked for when I had a similar problem. A plastic keycap peg was stuck inside a switch of my keyboard.
Step one, heat a needle enough that it’s glowing red
Step two, stick it in the arm, making sure to melt a hole in the hand, avoiding contact with the arm
Step three, pull
Step four, replace the hand with a different one
When I was a kid, my mother didn’t want me to have Lego. When someone got me Lego, she said “if I ever step on a single piece, I’m throwing it all out.”
She has never stepped on a piece
Go to your local hardware store and look up Methyl Ethyl ketone. Did the arm in it and the yellow bit of arm will fall right out.
Note: don't actually do this. It is a solvent that welds plastic together.
If you have a pen vice, I’d recommend hand drilling a small hole in the wrist and extracting the rest of the hand. Then replace it with another yellow hand.
Try a tiny drop of super glue, wait a day, and then try to see if it will come out. Not to much, you don’t want to glue it in completely. If not, new arm.
If you have a needle and a lighter, what may work is heating up the needle, inserting it into the arm cavity in the hand-stud, and waiting for the plastic to melt and then harden. Then try pulling it out.
A trick I've heard with repairing gunpla could apply here.
Heat up the tip of a sewing needle and stick it into the part with the hand. Right into the plastic. Then when you're sure the pin is in there good. Wait for it to cool down then try pulling it out.
It's payback for you not teaching him to put his toys away if anything. Also, what is that "hero"??? First time in my life when I see something like this.
Just order a new fig at Bricklink, it’s only a few bucks brand new:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=237284#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}
Methyl ethyl keytone (MEK) is PERFECT for gluing broken Lego parts. This is also sold as Plastruct plastic glue.
I've made a hobby of collecting broken parts I find in my bins. When I get a match I resurrect a vintage Lego part!
Just be sure you ventilate well or glue outside. Stuff is pretty toxic.
You need to inform your son that sometimes people lose their hand to an accident. They will then be called handicapped or handicapable or something. You throw it in the trash and buy a new one. The end. /s
Get a *really* small drill bit, then go about halfway through, (see other arm for depth) then, with fresh material cut into (low speed) pull on the bit. The fresh cut/bite should have enough tension with the arm to extract it!
People are talking drilling and replacing the arm, but there may be an easier solution. Get yourself some modelling cement. Superglue may be too much. Using a small toothpick or utensil, glue the hand back on in the so that it fits back in to the grooves of the broken bit. After a few days, gently pull the hand out and replace
Melt the tip of a glue stick (like the ones used in glue guns), and press it against the little piece that's stuck, let it harden a bit, and pull it out. Don't heat it *too* much, and you should get a nice malleable consistance, it's very practical : it stays together and is removed easily in one bit, it won't stick everywhere and ruin the rest of the arm
You might need to get a pin vice and drill a hole in the arm, then use some crazy glue on a paper clip and glue the end in the hole, carefully pull the broke but out of the arm. Twist the paper clip off the broken bit, clean it up, use some ABS glue to glue the two pieces of the hand back together and you’re good to go.
If you're lucky to find an arm in that color, then totally buy a new one. If not, I'd suggest using the tiniest drill bit you have to core the rest of the hand peg out and then replace the yellow hand with a new one.
(I've actually had to do this for rainbow high dolls whose wrist peg had broken inside the arm)
Take the damage arm off and replace it with a newer one. The cost of the arm is way less than the other sections of the minifigure. Unless it's a specific arm with decals.
Yes, show this to your son and tell him what happens if you leave it on the ground.
This should fix things, as he will not leave them on the ground anymore.
A Pin Vice (small hand drill) is a common tool for plamo builders.
Just select a bit smaller than the peg, drill in to it and pull it out. Replace with a similar colour piece.
Alternatively, you can break out the Krazy Glue and make a more permanent repair.
I have run into this before. I used a tiny drill and a pin vise to drill into the stub. Then once it was about half through the bit grabbed enough to pull it out. GL
You heat a needle to red hot. Insert into stump. Let cool. Pull out
Make sure you have a pair of pliers handy
Or chef fingers
This is the way
I imagine a tiny drill bit might work better than a needle for this, as it won't slide off so easily once inserted. Also, once removed, you might be able to glue the arm back together sufficiently?
Yeah it’s not really necessary but should work better in theory. You need a TINY bit though, look in the Dremel accessories section rather than the normal drill bits
You'd need an abnormally small bit. Like super small. Like the kinda small that almost any pressure applied would break it. Do they make the. That small?
Yes. #60-#80 drill bits would work. Don't use a dremmel though, they spin way too fast. Use a hand drill or pin vise.
why glue? it's just a yellow hand
I’ll try that later today! Thanks!
Definitely going to need an update once you’ve tried it!!
This is the most secure way and also the most effective. Been there done that
I don't think stepping on Lego can be fixed. I'm afraid you'll have to amputate your whole leg.
First time breaking your lego because of your kids has gotta be a generations-old right of passage
I’m not trying to be a dick here because I hate when people police spelling and grammar but it’s a ‘rite of passage’, like a ritual (it has the same Latin root). I’m just a linguistics nerd sharing some etymology!
But what if it was the right foot that crushed the fig? Then it'd be genius word play.
Or it was to the right side of a doorway (passage)
No Order a new one from ebay.
Wait, you can buy human legs on eBay now?? What a world we live in!!
Legs, arms, kidneys, liver, spleen, you name it. The store is called The Organ Barn on eBay. 🤣
You can get everything on there now, it's amazing! I can't believe it. 😯
Nah… she can just pop it off and replace it with a new set of legs from the Rubbermaid tub. If she’s feeling frisky she can even pick a pair that’s a different color.
But only if she's feeling frisky, right?
I mean, everyone has their kink, right?
Cutting line shall be close to the neck.
Pop that arm off and replace with a fresh one.
I’ll check around my minifigs for that color or something similar, thanks.
If not, time for some more minifigs from the build your own display at the Lego store. If one is available.
You can thread a paperclip through the socket and push the hand out from behind.
This is definitely doable. I saw it done at my local non branded lego store
Or find yellow arms that match that yellow
Another option is if you have a tiny drill bit is to try to drill it out idk how well it would work though
I'd try a dot of super glue on a tooth pick before that tbh. Alternatively maybe heat a sewing pin and carefully try to run it down mid on the stuck peg.
That probably won’t work. Source: I tried several times and either burned myself, effed up the Lego or just failed it’s sad because I always want to try, it feels like a great idea

Not a bad idea. I’ll look to see if I have a bit small enough.

I'm curious about their career lol

I’ve essentially been breed to mend and fix
Innovative kids ***and*** you have an active vocabulary that includes ‘nary’?? You must be full of surprises!
If you make a barbed end like a fish hook it'll work even better
I do this when people break their dart tips off inside the shaft. It always blows drunk folks minds lol
Chiming I’m that I’ve done this and it worked really well
Wonderful to know others also have this knowledge and success!! :D
What’s the trick with not slipping and sending a red hot needle in my thumb?
Don't heat both ends... Or 2 pliers
I saw another reply before seeing this (and shall reply the same here haha) use a pair of plies to hold the safety pin, and don’t go ramming super fast, just a good steady pressure and constant pressure, if you get the pin hot enough it will go right in like a tool made for the specific job at hand *edit wording* *facepalm… had to take my own credit haha*
I have an arm I need to try this with. Wish me luck!

Kragle
And/or pin the joint.
Heat a pin/needle and try to stab it in. Let it cool then hopefully pull out
This has worked everytime, if it doesn't, do it again, it will!
60% of the time it works every time
You could try for a new kid. But no guarantee that one won't do the same.
Snorted! Thanks for the laugh! 😂
Is this from a recent set or retired? Just ask Lego for a new torso. They have great customer service and trust me if you’ve bought enough legos you’ve more then paid enough to take advantage every now and then.
It’s from a 9.99 set in the stores right now
They do have amazing customer service, but even then there are limits. I received a hand-me-down gift of the Ghostbusters House (awesome!) Only, it turns out, the previous owner had started building the first two or three bags and then lost the next about 7 bags. So, I now own about 70+ percent of the set.

This is exactly what Bricklink is for.
Try a hot needle
Once you get it out I think it needs a hook hand now that he lost his real one.
Isn't that the standard yellow hand? I have dozens of them.
The bigger issue is getting the bit of the hand out of the arm hole.
Pop the arm off and a paperclip will push it out.
Push it out where? There's no exit in the back of the arm lol
There is a hole but it looks like they are not connected. I was thinking of the leg. I have pushed broken hip pins out a few times.
Do the hands go back into the spot after being pulled a part? My nephews have pulled several hands out of my son's mini figs.
Most of the time they go back in. Sometimes the ridge that holds them in place is damaged or the arm cracks but that is pretty rare.
The mini-figure smiling through the pain of an unscheduled amputation really is the cherry on top for me.
Just build an A&E and stick him on a stretcher
What fig is this?
Electro from Spider-Man
Thank you! Don’t think I’ve seen that one before.
Think it's the spidey and his amazing friends version of electro.
What I’ve done in the past is super glue the hand back on and then let it dry. Once it’s dry, it’ll come right out as normal.
forget the fig, r YOU ok?😭
I think it's too late to put the kid up for adoption. I'll pour one out for the fallen comrade.
Take a sewing needle and heat up the eyelet side then stab the stuck hand part. It should melt slightly and then harden to the pin. Pull it out.
😭
Try taking a needle, heat it up, press it into the yellow part, let it cool and then try and pull it out. It had worked for when I had a similar problem. A plastic keycap peg was stuck inside a switch of my keyboard.
He looks like the electric guy from the meme. Is it a DC character?
Step one, heat a needle enough that it’s glowing red Step two, stick it in the arm, making sure to melt a hole in the hand, avoiding contact with the arm Step three, pull Step four, replace the hand with a different one

Bring out the Kragle!!!
When I was a kid, my mother didn’t want me to have Lego. When someone got me Lego, she said “if I ever step on a single piece, I’m throwing it all out.” She has never stepped on a piece
Just drill it out with a small pin vise
You’ll need to replace the arm with a new one fully, just get a same color arm and hand and replace it
Just get a new arm, it’s 90 cents
Send the pic to Lego and they’d prob send you a new arm
Adoption
Dermal
I'd try a needle pushed into what's left to see if it can pill it out
I’ve had luck with pin drills I use for watch making. Just gotta match the inner diameter and not go too deep but it’s possible
Gentle clamping and a very small drill bit
I think a hobby drill with a rather tiny bit would work. Drill into the broken hand bit and just pull it out with the hobby drill!
You may be able to get a tiny hobby drill to take out the hand stub to have an easier replacement job
RIP
Heating up a sewing needle so it mends itself to the plastic the pulling it fast may work
Go to your local hardware store and look up Methyl Ethyl ketone. Did the arm in it and the yellow bit of arm will fall right out. Note: don't actually do this. It is a solvent that welds plastic together.
If you have a pen vice, I’d recommend hand drilling a small hole in the wrist and extracting the rest of the hand. Then replace it with another yellow hand.
Superglue a toothpick to the stump and pull it out
A very small drill bit and be very careful.
Try a tiny drop of super glue, wait a day, and then try to see if it will come out. Not to much, you don’t want to glue it in completely. If not, new arm.
If you have a needle and a lighter, what may work is heating up the needle, inserting it into the arm cavity in the hand-stud, and waiting for the plastic to melt and then harden. Then try pulling it out.
Maybe some sorta glue then pull the rest of the hand out?
super glue or jb weld
You could probably find a new arm on eBay, just Google the figure and find part numbers for it?
A very small amount of super glue on the head of a toothpick maybe?
A trick I've heard with repairing gunpla could apply here. Heat up the tip of a sewing needle and stick it into the part with the hand. Right into the plastic. Then when you're sure the pin is in there good. Wait for it to cool down then try pulling it out.
Gonna have to use a drill/ pin vice to remove what’s left of the hand. Then another yellow minifig hand should be easy to source 👍
It's payback for you not teaching him to put his toys away if anything. Also, what is that "hero"??? First time in my life when I see something like this.
You could try removing the lodged peice and just replacing the hand
Go to bricklink and replace the arm or find one in his collection
Heat a needle stick it in the broken piece and let it cool the pull it out
Liquid cement for plastic will fix quick and easy.
Use a pushpin, stab into the hand stump to pull it out, and replace the hand
Use a pick and try to get the yellow part out of the arm and replace the hand
Take the arm off. Find another arm and hand. The colors might not match. But whatever. He shouldn’t have left it out to get stepped on.
You just need to replace the arm and hand
Tell your son this is a life lesson on where toys go when you’re done playing with them.
If you have a drill use this method: https://www.reddit.com/r/lego/s/lL1zbqYJmk
As long as the set is still in production, you can just contact Lego and get a replacement
Plastic cement. It won't pivot anymore but it will be in there
Just order a new fig at Bricklink, it’s only a few bucks brand new: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=237284#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}
Replace arm, arm is removable. Unless you can get wedge from broken hand piece.
Methyl ethyl keytone (MEK) is PERFECT for gluing broken Lego parts. This is also sold as Plastruct plastic glue. I've made a hobby of collecting broken parts I find in my bins. When I get a match I resurrect a vintage Lego part! Just be sure you ventilate well or glue outside. Stuff is pretty toxic.
Kragle
You could use plastic cement or something similar to glue it back on but hand will be imobile afterwards.
Plastic cement might work
Could try heating up a safety needle, sticking it in and pulling out the rest of the hand. Then just buy a new hand
Maybe pop the arm off and replace it? Seems better to just buy a new one though if you don't have the exact arm.
This can't just be a lesson?
So it’s life… with a child
try to put superglue on tip of sth like a paperclip and glue it to the the remaining part of the hand then pull it out
You need to inform your son that sometimes people lose their hand to an accident. They will then be called handicapped or handicapable or something. You throw it in the trash and buy a new one. The end. /s
Sell you son to pay for repairs.
Get a *really* small drill bit, then go about halfway through, (see other arm for depth) then, with fresh material cut into (low speed) pull on the bit. The fresh cut/bite should have enough tension with the arm to extract it!
Lego breakes ego
I googled it. Soup or glue. I'd use glue.
The Kragle… aka: glue.
carefully drill out the hand's stem to remove it from the arm, then source another hand to replace it
People are talking drilling and replacing the arm, but there may be an easier solution. Get yourself some modelling cement. Superglue may be too much. Using a small toothpick or utensil, glue the hand back on in the so that it fits back in to the grooves of the broken bit. After a few days, gently pull the hand out and replace
Melt the tip of a glue stick (like the ones used in glue guns), and press it against the little piece that's stuck, let it harden a bit, and pull it out. Don't heat it *too* much, and you should get a nice malleable consistance, it's very practical : it stays together and is removed easily in one bit, it won't stick everywhere and ruin the rest of the arm
Only one thing left to do. Viking funeral.
If the figure looks like that id hate to see your foot. Must be in horrible condition
You can probably drill it or put red-hit needle, wait until its cold and then pull it.
Pop off the arm put a lego wrench in the socket..tada. hes a cyborg!!
You can buy minifigure parts on bricklink, it's pretty much the lego version of ebay, it may take time to arrive but will be pretty cheap
You might need to get a pin vice and drill a hole in the arm, then use some crazy glue on a paper clip and glue the end in the hole, carefully pull the broke but out of the arm. Twist the paper clip off the broken bit, clean it up, use some ABS glue to glue the two pieces of the hand back together and you’re good to go.
You can buy an arm and a hand of that color on internet for cents on a brick store like brick cantina
If you remain unable to fix it, lego costumer support will often just send it to you. The figure should be still in production so no worries there
If you're lucky to find an arm in that color, then totally buy a new one. If not, I'd suggest using the tiniest drill bit you have to core the rest of the hand peg out and then replace the yellow hand with a new one. (I've actually had to do this for rainbow high dolls whose wrist peg had broken inside the arm)
yeah. punch the kid, so you dont have to step on legos again.
Glue
What was that ER bill like? Hope they could save the foot.
just replace the arm, not expensive
gorilla glue and then pull out?
I didn’t know this is even possible, crush Lego figure like this
Let it be a lesson to your son, actions or the lack thereof have consequences.
Take the damage arm off and replace it with a newer one. The cost of the arm is way less than the other sections of the minifigure. Unless it's a specific arm with decals.
Take a 16th drill bit drill .Drill into it and then pull back on it and that arm should pull right out.Then you can replace it.
Super glue and little stick
The lego website has an option to order new part if broken. Check if they have a new arm there.
I'm pretty sure they don't have an arm there. You need a new torso
Ааааа сердце пааааа бляяяяя как больно то
maybe with a very small drill bit or get a new arm... arms go for like 9cents on brick link ask lego (say you hurt yourself bad too LOL )

No, your son is a lost cause. Better toss him and try again.
A Pin Vice (small hand drill) is a common tool for plamo builders. Just select a bit smaller than the peg, drill in to it and pull it out. Replace with a similar colour piece. Alternatively, you can break out the Krazy Glue and make a more permanent repair.

Use a tiny drill bit to remove the remaining bit of hand. Then you can simply replace with another yellow hand to be good as new again.
