I never realized Aoshima Shin Getter's open fist used to hold the scythe/axe was 2 pieces and mine came apart. I tried using some rubber cement and some plastic model glue and that wasn't strong enough to hold up the scythe w/o falling apart. I would like to avoid using the stronger glues if possible to retain a little bit more flexibility... has this happened to anyone else?

Same happened to me. Problem is if you put glue on it, you may not be able to take the scythe out later.
All I did is, I tried a few times what is the angle needed for the fist to hold the scythe so that the 2 parts will still stay together. It took a while but they are fine right now as long as I don't touch the figure too much.
Note that you must have the bottom of the scythe touching your display cabinet so that it gives support to the weight. You need to make sure the scythe is leaning on the palm and not the connection point between the 2 part, otherwise, even glue cannot help supporting the weight of the large weapon.
