Does anyone know where to get replacement screws ?

[Andy1672]

I have lots of GI Joe parts missing screws at the moment !

Does anyone know where to get replacements ? I could use about 30 !!!!

Im getting to the point where im looking at cheap Joes on ebay just to rob the screws from them !

There must be some available ....... somewhere ..... ?

When I first looked at smalljoes.com they had two sizes of screw. One for the back and one for the leg. I just looked and now they don't seem to sell any at all. And they have run out of accessory hose. Bummer.
I was going to order 500 new O rings from them. What do you think? Anywhere else that does the lot?

[Andy1672]

Im sure somewhere must sell them, I have enough 'O' rings, and the knee screws are not really a problem, its just those bloody torso screws !

I have bought a few ebay joblots, legs usually have screws already in but torso's are always missing !

Im sure if I found some they would only cost pennies !

I think it will just be a matter of finding a similar sized screw that's meant for somet else. I might be in maplins tomorrow, so will take one along as they are quite pc sized?

[Andy1672]

Nice one Steve, let me know if you can find a decent replacement.

I did try a search once myself. No hardware store in the bloody county had screws small enough. I got passed around some model shops for a while with no joy. If anyone can turn up a good supply for both sizes of screw and O rings, then I'm up for it.

Im sure Steve is on the right track, perhaps computer shops are a better place to start !

You can get O rings through ebay, shaunyboy.
