Putting the card board back on a skylander [CLOSED]

I had one of the cardboard backs come off of my skylanders. What is the best way to put them back together? Nothing is wrong with the packaging or anything I thing it was just a bad glue job in the first place.

Like I said; Glue can really help. Just weigh it down with something while the glue dries.

I have some rubber cement type stuff and some other spray stuff. I will try and use those. If it fails. Oh well, not a huge deal. I am almost just tempted to leave it be.

"Aleen's Clear Gel Tacky Glue" at Micheal's crafts store. I put a glob of it on something and used a toothpick to apply it for a nice small bead and any tight spaces you might need to get to. Also, for anyone who wants to know how to get the plastic separated from the cardboard cleanly, almost flawlessly, the answer is put it in the freezer for a few hours. Preferably on a rack as to not get the cardboard wet of course. You really only need to get one side and the top to separate, then it opens kinda like a book and you can gently get the figure out. (Edit: doesn't work with EVERY figure, gotta have a good starting point figure where the plastic is already showing signs of separation. Here are some pictures of my work:

hmmm. I may need to try this. Would be cheaper to buy the special variant loose then just reseal them. I like it!
