How you get that screw back in after putting on the sticker.
That's a good question! lol It was so long ago... I think I just messed up on the video and lifted the sticker back up and put the screw in off camera. :)
Does this work with modern figures? I stupidly coz I'm an idiot pulled too hard on a piece of Studio Series 86 Optimus Prime and got a crack on it
Plastruct Plastic Weld works on ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Polystyrene (PS), Acrylic, Nylon, Polypropylene (PP), & Polyethylene (PE). So if it's made from one of those... you're good.
You forgot to add the rubsticker to the wing.
My wrong way has the head switch on the back missing
I'm sure there's a way to attach something to it that will lift the head...
@@MisterBobot ok
how can i remove the old color without damaging the plastic? Alcohol?
I used LA's Totally Awesome All-Purpose Concentrated Cleaner. amzn.to/4gB67pg
No sticker for the front windows ?
Nope... I'm broke. :)
I’m a big fan of robots in général, and gobots are on of my first transforming bots! Cause they’re cheaper than transformers. I had 5 for a christmas and somme months after, my mother bought me Ultra Magnus but in the fantastic Diaclone version in a discount shop in Paris. I was so happy! In 1985, at the same time, I began to draw a transformer like comic 😂 and now I have too much gobots, robomachines, and so on! My préfères version for gobots is the Japanese version, more simple et effective, less show, and specially in faces. And I noticed a change in the artificial 😅
get yourself a microphone, this content is worth it
It turned out great, your videos are always useful when I'm fixing my broken toys! By the way I realized you managed to remove the grill/bumper from the main body, how you did it? I have one where the ratchets in the legs are broken but not sure if I can take the hips apart without damaging it, got any tips?
Thanks! Glad my videos are useful to you. :) I'm trying to remember how I removed the front bumper, it's been a while. :) I think if you remove all the screws from the main body, it should split just enough to slip it out. I don't recommend this b/c of potentially damaging the toy. To take the legs off at the hips you need to remove the pin that is going through the wheels. I have not been able to do that but I do know of a video from a friend of mine @decepticonzerora that shows how to did it here: ua-cam.com/video/7A8LHkPaTtU/v-deo.htmlsi=Xd_8EdPd7NalL1OC
Your videos are so amazing you deserve a lot more subs!
Anyone know how to make replacement tires for Crasher or where to get them??????
You could try finding a junker Gobot w/ intact tires and swap them out...
Your videos are awesome! Thanks to you I can restore my Gobots collection. Subscribed!
Thank you for the sub! Have fun restoring your Gobots! :)
would the de-yellowing hydrogen peroxide work on non white pieces? lets say for a pink piece thats turned maroon?
Yes, I believe so. I have used this technique on blue plastic that was off colored and it worked. Always do a test area first just to be sure...
@@MisterBobot awesome, tysm!
Amazing video once again! I have the exact same problem. Is it always the gears that are broken?
yes, most of the time it's the gears... the teeth wear down. :)
Armor All is bad. It coats breathable materials like rubber with a chemical barrier. So not only did the jelly most likely not penetrate, but now the aged rubber will age and crack must faster because it cant breathe or absorb moisture. Better to use coconut oil, just the jelly soak, or quality furniture polish in a pinch. Coconut oil will even tell you when its fully absorbed by going from shiny to white. At that point just remove excess by wiping. AA should have been branded snake oil decades ago. Black Magic tire dressing is the only thing more damaging. It's mostly not sold anymore though. Love your videos. <3 Currently restoring my childhood Optimus that got split in half 30 years ago.
I heard from someone else who did a similar project on this toy say that applying a clear coat on unpainted plastic, especially white plastic, can cause the plastic to yellow again. To counter this, it’s recommended that you apply the clear coat before removing the masking tape, applying it to only the painted parts and not the bare plastic.
As a long time Transformers fan, I'd always just assumed the Gobots were a bit rubbish. But that Porsche 928 toy is absolutely lovely! As a Porsche fan, I'm going to have to pick one up. Great restoration video as well, I'm sure I'll wind up copying some of it!
Thanks for watching the video! There are a lot of well built and very cool Gobots out there. Enjoy the Porsche 928 bot! :)
Fantastic!
Many thanks!
Turned out great Mike. I've tried making a replacement part before using "Blue Stuff" as a mould and Milliput as the material and it just didn't really work. This looks like a much better method. Might have another crack at it this way.
Hallo, nice bideo of repairing jetfire. Nog i have to do mine. Greeting roy
Thank you for watching! And I hope your Jetfire restoration goes well! :)
Excellent final result on this Mike! Those wings and new antenna look great.
Thank you! :)
What did you use to remove the yellowing?

Great work! I got one today. Do you have/make more copies of the weapon?
Thanks! Yes, I can make more. Please send me an email to discuss. Mr.Bobot01@gmail.com

Thank you George! I really appreciate your support... :)
What about the trailer? Are you going to do a video on that?
Yes! I would really like too, but I don't have one as of yet to work on... :) :)
Mr Bobot does a great job every time! 👍
Thanks! We try to please... 😁
Love your work! These videos are amazing! One question: I am restoring some G1 weapons with these chrome pens, do I need to wait for a month before I touch them and is the clear coat necessary? I don’t have an airbrush
Thank you! In my experience and testing of the Molotow chrome paint pens, I noticed that even after letting it dry for weeks you could still rub off the paint or at least dull the mirror reflectiveness. What you might want to do is test the chrome paint on some plastic spoons... do three. Spoon one, test the paint with your thumb by rubbing on the painted surface to see the result after 1 week of drying. Then do the same thing weeks later w/ spoon 2 and 3 respectively. If it seems like it's working and your okay with it, go for it. If you want to try the clearcoat, try that on a spoon as well. Basically, for my restorations I believe the clear coat is necessary but I think it's best for you to do a little testing to find out what suits you. :)
@@MisterBobotthank you so much! And the clearcoat is just a spray I can buy and directly spray it on after one week of drying?
@@Scoopy1979 Yes, the clearcoat I use w/ the Molotow is called Alclad Gloss Klear Kote, here: amzn.to/4cB9mLJ Its for airbrush or regular brush. For a complete guide to how I use it you can watch this video: ua-cam.com/video/8vsK2f-00sg/v-deo.htmlsi=6HzTRNlx9bY7Pv-N
@@MisterBobotthank you so much I really appreciate it!
Another great restoration Mike, one of my favourite Gobots
Thank you! Appreciate it. :)
Great work Mike love it
Another great video
Thank you! :)
Nice one Mike! You always have better chrome results than me :) I think I need to invest in another airbrush! End result looks great 👍
Thanks! I highly recommend the one I use... a bit of a learning curve but I'd be more than happy to help if you get one. Thanks for the comment and support... appreciate it. 👍
GoBots deserve love.
I completely agree! :)
I'll keep coming back and throwing you likes. The algorithm doesn't give you the attention you deserve.
Thank you very much! I appreciate the support! :)
Nice Job Mike great finish!
Thank you! :)
Awesome!
How did you remove the chrome what did you use?
I used LA's Totally Awesome Cleaner, which you can find here: amzn.to/4cKoDcT
