Posted by Bianca on June 20, 2006 at 19:17:28:

Some of you will know me from events, I was the colourist at Collectible World and wanted to say how terrible everyone has felt about what has happened eapecially with the event not going ahead.We have all lost our jobs and are simply gutted.
I was wondering if anybody would be interested in a repair service, I spent seventeen years at Collectible World, twelve of which were spent as colourist working closely with Real and Muff and I'm sure they would recommend me to anyone wanting their dragons repaired, please contact me if anyone is interested. Again my sincere appologies on behalf of everybody it's been fantastic knowing some of you, I shall miss it.

When my countersign arrives she is going to repair it for me,she has already gave me her address to send it to.When I send it off I am going to send her a nice little letter to see if we can get our very own pocket dragon nurse.

Hi, Mouldart are repairing a few of mine at the moment including Toybox that hasn't got a limited edition number on it (don't know why, it just hasn't!!). I am really missing it..... but it will look ace when I get it back.

Just curious Tam, have you had your Countersign back yet, or is he still poorly.

And could any one tell me what sort of prices we are looking at for getting them repaired? Just roughly, for things like replacing a missing toe, or an ear needing to be glued back on?

Thanks xx

'Our Hero' fought bravely, however his sword was lost in the melee.

Can anyone advise me if this is repairable and if it's expensive?

It may work out expensive it may be cheaper to obtain another one

Repairs range from £7 plus. You have to judge if it is cheaper to buy from Ebay or not

No, it would be interesting to find out though if anybody has. They are advertizing on collectors net, but I am yet to hear of any Pocket Dragons being repaired for anybody we know.

It will probably only be good for the more expensive ones, the prices start at £15 which could be a bit dear if you are looking to get one of your little ones repaired.

It would be nice to know if anyone has used them as I have quite a few that need some TLC.

I've just got "waiting for a light" from Crystal-Reef - arrived in 3 bits because they did not take care packing. Anyway, the piece is WAY worth repairing and so I'm sending to Glenfirra. Will let you know the outcome...

Hi Angela

Waiting for a light? Is that an Under The Hedge piece or something? I have not heard of that one, although I dont know anything about that collection.

I am sorry that it arrived in bits, it must have been upsetting for you, but at least you seem ok with repairing it, it would be great to know if Glenfirra make a good and resonable priced job.

Yes, please let us know how you get on. xx

Hello, soz, waiting for a light is Under the Hedge (by Real and Hap Henriksen in 1990) .... and I've decided to super glue the piece today. I guess it is probably cheaper to keep this piece and then wait to buy a perfect one (if I ever see one again) and really I haven't got the confidence to send it off any more.....
So, I have glued him back together and... he looks fine! I did write to Crytstal-Reef about their **** packaging so hopefully they will take note for others.
I am now only waiting for 2 Hedge pieces - Stemm & Bowles and Sundae Afternoon. Graham is also looking for these pieces so... may the best man win!! (hehe).

Talking about getting dragons repaired Mad

Andy still has my dragons that i have paid to have repaired before Mouldart went under. We are talking of nearly 2 years he has had my dragons and I have not heard a word from him. I paid over £125 to get these dragons repaired as well.
