    Default Broken stem top, stuck in ship

    Hi,

    I bought a few ships at UKGE at the weekend. Upon trying them out I put the scar model on the base. It was a tight fit but it didn't take much pressure and it "clicked" fully down on the stem. Then I couldn't get it off! So I tried to twist the ship to gently ease it off and the top of the stem twisted off the main part, leaving it in the ship!!

    Has anyone else had an issue with this? I've emailed Ares games and asked for advice. It seems as though the ships fit a lot easier on the hight stems than the main base stem.

    I'm really annoyed that this has happened and I hope I can fix this or get a replacement.

    Paul.

    Welcome to the Aerodrome, Paul, from here near Norwich.

    You can probably drill out the broken top of the stem with a small hand drill. I would not risk using an electric drill.

    Thanks for the idea. I used some very sharp tweezers. I was hoping it would loosen and easily come out but it didn't so resorted to just digging it out bit by bit!
