I've tried so many different ways to put their heads back on and it took me two days to figure this out. (With glue dry time.) The first one, with the thumb tack, it ended up working. So the front end guy, his head can rotate. Symbolically, he's the only one who should have use of his neck, according to the movie.



For the rotating head, wood burn a thin hole into the back, at an angle, fill with E6000 glue, put some glue on the tack itself, then let them sit for a lil bit, then put the pin in the hole, not all the way. Leave overnight and let them adhere to each other. Then the next day, stretch the doll head over the tack head with great difficulty until you've made it work, without ripping the tack out. Success!



Alternate head attaching, just lay lots of E6000 glue where you want the head attached, and then do the same for the underside of the head, around the hole. After almost a minute, place them together and hold them there for a while. You don't want to let it go, because it needs some time to get the initial bond, in your hand. Then, after a minute or two of holding, you can set that one down to rest for a day and move onto the next doll, repeating the process. :)
