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
I would like a quote for my G1 Jetfire restoration. How do I request?
Please send me an email at, mr.bobot01@gmail.com
Still in awe of your work! Thanks so much for doing it! @everyone Mr. Bobot is as honest and professional as them come… a true gem! 💯
Thank you very much and for the opportunity to restore your G1 Jetfire! Please enjoy it! :) :)
That's G1 jetfire?
Yes, it's a 1985 G1 Transformers Jetfire toy...
🤘
Very nice final result on this good Sir, some ingenious fixes too.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice job on this mate! That resin smoke stack looks ace. I'd never heard of liquid mask before so that was interesting to see how that worked. You deserve a lot more subscribers my dude, I hope the algorithm smiles kindly on your channel ;)
Thank you very much! I hope the algorithm smiles kindly on me too... :)
Nice.
Thank you for watching & the comment... much appreciated! :)
Nice indeed!

Awesome Restoration Mike! Good to see you back at it!!
Thanks, I appreciate that! But who is this Robert person you speak of? 🙃
@@MisterBobot My Bad! I thought that was your name?! Sorry Man!
@@decepticonzerora No problem my friend... :) It's Mike. 😁
@@MisterBobot My bad Mike, I think mr. Bobot and then Bob so naturally Robert came to mind! Sorry for my mistake! Anyways, GREAT VIDEO MAN PLEASE MAKE MORE! I WILL START SOON TOO!
@@decepticonzerora NP! :) Looking forward to your videos too!
You could've used PTFE tape, aka plumber's thread tape in the joints to thicken them. Also, why not mix the paint or pigment into the mold? That way it'll have the same color throughout the resin, saving you a painting step?
There's a lot of different ways to tighten a joint and sometimes I utilize the materials I have on hand. Plumber's tape would probably work just fine although it may be a bit too bulky wrapped around the circumference of that joint. The resin I use w/ the talc would most likely muddy the color however black may be possible. And I usually have to do multiple resin pours b/c when duplicating an item with lots of details, it can go wrong from air bubbles to not filling all the details of the mold itself.
Fantastic restoration! It always feels good to fix something for someone else 👍The reproduction of the weapon came out really well! Good to see another video from you 🤘
Thanks Dave! I'll have one more restoration coming up for the same person. And you're right, it's nice to do your best and fix something for someone else.
Oddly enough the Rock Lord's coloring book is a major source of information about the character details because they based it's text on info from the Rock Lords concept text. It describes Sticks 'N Stones as being the largest and strongest Rock Lord, despite his toy being the same size as the rest.
Very cool! I think that he was supposed to have 2 different weapons, the mace and a cactus club. :)
I always enjoyed Doublerock in the Revenge of Cronos anime. Although his first real appearance doing anything was in episode 21, if you watch carefully he is standing in the background among the bad guys in episode 20.
Nice! I've never watched the anime... I get a lot of my retro toy "knowledge" from this cool site: www.the-liberator.net
Did you know that the Japanese release of this figure was colored slightly different? The rock is almost black and then the faces and toes are painted differently.
Hi, thanks for the comment! Yes, I did know there was a different version w/ different colors...I think the toes were orange and green. I think there is also a brown version of the weapon as well! :) Very cool!
@@MisterBobotin the original toy development he was supposed to come with two... Fact the whole first wave was supposed to have two weapons each. Due to cutbacks he only got one. That's why his bio card claims he has a "Cactus Club and Double Duty Mace". The weapon that was his Cactus Club was instead given to the Magmar toy.
Happy to see more content . I enjoy your videos . Keep up the good work .
Thank you! :)
Hi everybody! Hope you enjoy this ROCK LORDS restoration! I always found this toy line to be very unusual and unique. What do you think about the Rock Lords? And don't forget the Jewel Lords! :)
Nice, rock lords are awesome
I agree! They are very unusual and unique...
I have a question, I have the figure, have you noticed that on the back it seems to have a fingerprint? , it stands out very much in the entire mold
It might be from Superglue
@@supahcomix I have the figure 3 times, and they all have it, yours too, mystery
That "fingerprint" looking mark is actually part of the original toy. 😁
@omegasupreme62 that is so strange, maybe when making the mold some toy maker just accidentally immortalized themselves in toy form?
@@supahcomix That's a very good possibility...
great work as usual.If someone wanted to send you something, where would one do that?
Please send me an email to discuss... thanks! mr.bobot01@gmail.com
Nice job on this mate! I'm amazed at how nicely the windscreen and windows came out with the toothpaste and polish.
Thanks! 👍
What brand of glue are you using ? Would Krazy glue to rough for the plastic ? Also do you have an alternative to LA’s Totally Awesome degreaser spot remover as we don't have that in Canada. Tried CLR bathroom cleaner. Seems to work but it's gonna take a week, not enough powerful.
I use a cheap CVS super glue. Any type of super glue will work, just use a little bit, you don't want to get any of it on the other parts. For LA’s Totally Awesome degreaser spot remover, I think oven cleaner might work, never tied it though, and the only other thing that kind of works is rubbing alcohol, you must let it soak for a while and use some elbow grease.
@@MisterBobot I let the chrome parts soak a few days into CLR routine clean and the came out red without any rubbing!
@@starfrit Very nice! I'm glad you found something that worked well. Please let us know how it goes! :)
Power master prime was my favorite toy growing up. I played with it until it literally fell apart. lol. Could you do a video on how to fix the floppy wings on a vintage gobots leader 1?
Hi, thanks for watching the Power Master Prime video! Yes, I could do a video on Leader 1... I just need one w/ floppy wings... :) I might use a bit of floor polish in the wing joint.
Do you allow folks to send you their personal go-bots for repair for a fee at all? I got some that could use some repairs!
Hi, and yes I do commission restorations. Please send me an email to discuss at: mr.bobot01@gmail.com
What would you do if you could not remove an arm because of a stripped screw ? Waiting for more than an afternoon of sun atm for retro whitening. I have had bad weather for two weeks now
There are a few products on Amazon that can remove stripped screws. I have a paste that works great, & a little WD40 helps. :)
I should send you mine
Thanks! I do commission work... send me an email if interested. :)
@@MisterBobot tried to send you an email to mr.boboto1 but adress is not working
@@starfrit Here is my email: mr.bobot01@gmail.com it's a zero at the end. :)
This is the first vid I've ever seen where the molatov didn't turn grey with a clear coat. Thank you for the this video. Now I know there might be hope to keep that chrome with a mirror finish. Everything I tried made it turn a dull grey.
Hi, and thank you for watching! Yes, the Gloss , Alclad II Klear Kote Lacquer does a good job. You have to apply it a certain way but it will protect the chrome paint w/o loosing the mirror reflectiveness. I made a tutorial on it, here: ua-cam.com/video/8vsK2f-00sg/v-deo.htmlsi=j1dTgxwDe3dTapin
Great work! Do you do restoration commissions? My favorite toy/character is jetfire and I was able to get one in very good condition but would like it polished up a bit so to speak; I’d like to bring it back as close as possible to original condition as possible. Thanks for your time and these videos!
Hi & thank you! Glad you liked the G1 Jetfire restoration... yes, I have done some commissions... it really depends what's involved. Feel free to send me an email. :)
@@MisterBobot Great!! email sent =)
7:13 tighten hinge joint, thanks
Great job!! The legs easy to remove?
Thanks! I didn't mess w/ the legs that much but the design is pretty straight forward and they appear to be easily removeable.
Should note that if you're missing leg pieces, the opposing rear and front legs can be flipped diagonally. So left front pieces can be used on the rear right
Is there anyway you could have inserted a Matrix of Leadership?
Is there anyway you could have inserted a Matrix of Leadership?
Now i'm tempted to send you my "Red Alert" to do the same fixing! poor toy is 40 years old and my first ever Transformer and he is almost in the same state as yours was!
Does the toothpaste cleaning works similar to the baking soda method for fixing scratches in things like glasses?
In hindsight, I wouldn't use the toothpaste method, it worked okay, but not as good as a clear plastic scratch remover like Meguiar's.
Thanks for restoring a great figure! Just found your channel and between this and the Jetfire projects you earned my subscription.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the restorations and thank you for the sub! :)
Last time I removed stickers I used lighter fluid and it worked more quickly than that goo gone. I did hear that lighter fluid is bad for chrome and clear parts. What has your experience been?
I've never used lighter fluid to remove stickers b/c I always have a bottle of Goo Gone around. However, I 've heard it works pretty good but you do have to be careful on certain surfaces like chrome. Goo Gone works well on all surfaces but does take a little longer to work... you have to let it soak for a bit.
Wy not 3d scan for a 3d printer. This way you can upload the total toy . And can be rebeult with a 3d printer.
I would really like to do that... just don't have the funds for it right now.
@@MisterBobot 3d scan you can make with phone and the camera . Thare is a app for Name qlone. You can scan them next time if your repair your hobby toys. You can always later if you have the funds for a 3d printer. Make new videos.
Good idea! Thanks... :) @@dyslectische
For the chrome removal, the LA Awesome! Cleaner is available at most dollar stores very cheap in the USA. I got mine at Dollar Tree. However, I wouldn't recommend removing chrome if you can just touch it up with a Molotow pen or some Mirror chrome paint from StewartSimple
I thought about touching it up, @1:11 but in my experience, using the Molotow pens on those front bumper scratches would have looked very patchy.
