Exclamation Landing Gear Problem

Recently, the front landing gear of my Singapore A380 and Thai A340 broke (both fell off a shelf - luckily there's no other damage). I've e-mailed herpa, and they say that they can get me the landing gear. However, on removal of the landing gears, I discovered that they are stuck to the little landing gear box (to the left of the broken landing gear in the picture). I've tried superglue remover and just brute force with tweezers, but they aren't coming apart. Does anyone know where to get a replacement for these?

Re: Landing Gear Problem

you probably didn't email the right person because I have got over 25 sets of replacement gear from herpa ( I retrofitted my whole collection). You might also need a flat head screw driver to get it out.

Re: Landing Gear Problem

i've been offered the landing gear, in fact they've already sent me a set. However, it's the landing gear doors and that whole piece of plastic that I need, and they've said that they don't have that.

has anyone recieved one of these landing gear door sets?
