This is like the scene in toy story 2 where the old guy fixes woody. This is really satisfying for me
Dude sometimes you don't need to freeze a ball joint (or any joint) if they don't fit properly, in some cases, putting a thin piece of paper between the joint and its socket can reduce the extra space between them to keep them together and still allows them to move as they should
@@dstar01 have you tried using epoxy clay to make them fit/compatible? to prevent them from sticking together you can cover the joint in kitchen oil, that way you can make the joint and socket compatible and still keep them articulated
@@dstar01 I see, looking forward to it, love this kind of videos man, keep it up
6:18 looks likes his finger is broken
Your thumbs don’t bend like that?
Thumbs can bend but he has some like extra joints in there
Lol I can do it too, I thought it was normal.
you can sand the ball joint down to fit the socket if it doesn't go in. or if it is way loose you can dab superglue on it and then glue tissue paper on the joint and then pull off the tissue. it'll leave a good heavy layer of thickness of lint on that joint so that it is tight and it won't damage anything. way easier than superglue + water btw and safer.
So let dry with tissue pull off tissue and then put into joint? Right
@@danielmilliken8903 yes.
I bought some rejuvenate after watching your comparison video and I got so much done, also just ordered the KO of the 1000toys Hellboy and got the rejuvenate ready to go LOL...thanks for your help!
Literally watching this video for the same figure 4 years later. How was it?
I heard that you can also use transparent nail polish for joint tightening.
With that ankle, you could've added a small amount of olive oil on the ball joint, then fill the hole with hot glue, immediately put the ball joint in the hole, let the glue dry, and then begin gently moving the ball joint until it moves. You are essentially making a much tighter fit so the joint dosent pop out
Yhe olive oil makes it so the hot glue won't stick to the joint while drying
How flexible are your thumbs?!
Yo being honest this guy and a 2 UA-camrs have pretty much gave me inspiration to make toy reviews/ gaming videos and not to cuss😂/ I will be uploading soon

ShartimusPrime and Dstar01 are awesome!
Ey some Cory love, it's always good to see that
@Plankton_of_ cheese What are you talking about?
Awesome as always.. I've got a KO first apperence Vegeta with the same shoulder/chest problem. I've gotta give that fix a try.
thats the exact reason why i get boot legs for my collection cool too own the original but for the original i tend too leave in my box and for the botleg there fillers for my shelfs or sometimes not fillers there permant spots .
Yo. Instead of superglue. Get some resin, and move the ball periodically until it cures so it doesnt get stuck. Then youll have an airtight socket that freely moves.
Can you do a video on fixing bootleg Figma figures please? Theyre a lot different than shf
Bro you're awesome
You and shartimusprime are my 2 favorite figure reviewers love you bro
Well then you could’ve put some milliput in the socket to make it smaller. Milliput is a two part apoxy the drys in six hours. Or you could’ve put some nail polish on the peg to make it bigger. There was other options than freezing it
How much do you usually charge for one of these? They look great.
Venom came in the mail and boy is he loose as hell
Hey Dstar01 can you fix the sh figuarts kakashi bootleg please? I need a tutorial for how to fix mine.
Job well done.
I HAVE THIS EXACT GOKU BLACK KO FIGMA WITH THE SAME JOINT PROBLEM BUT I ACCIDENTALLY BROKE HIS NECK
I'M LOOKING FOR WAYS TO FIX HIM AND HERE I AM IN YOUR VID
Take a shot Everytime he says rejouvonate
Love KOs, but it's not cool cause you "can't" afford it. You can, you just don't want to pay that much. Which look I get it, you do you. KOs are 100% fine when the item is no longer available or the company is stupidly allowing reseller or scalpers to profit 100x over. (Side eyeing my KO Neca turtles)
Hey dude, love you videos! If you get a chance could you tell us if quick shine floor finish in the green bottle, is better or worse than the others you reviewed? I can’t find the quick shine hardwood luster in my area!
Hey I have a storm collectible noob saibot and the problem with it is on arm the peg is so loose but it’s not the peg it’s the inside of the whole where the peg goes and I’m wondering how you’d fix it
Great vid dude. I learned some things
your thumbs are scaring me
He is as good as toy repair from toy story
360p quality.
Pls fix
maybe you can try clear nail polish to get the let ball joint on
Can you send me the sellers name... I wouldn’t mind doing that once I buy a new knockoff
Next K.O ROF goku SHF?
Hey man I have a dragon stars vegito figure that needs a new leg because the peg snapped inside the leg so had to throw out the leg
Why would you throw away the leg instead of saving it to reattach? Dumbass
Was the double ball joint to big or small?
If a ball joint is too big you can shave it down with an knife. Then sand it smooth.
That is how I got my unmasked Wolverine head on my Oldman Logan body.
I just sanded down the ball joint so it fit into the socket.
You and your rejuvenate
Do you ever check bootlegs for lead paint? It's not as common as people think it is but the chance of it makes me worry.
Another great video bro! Very interesting, you really saved the figure. Would any floor polish work? I don't think I have Rejuvenate where I am.
@@dstar01 Oh I haven't really looked into it, but is there a specific type you think I should use, eg. a certain varnish colour, or would any floor polish work?
Nice vid,new sub
How would you deal with hard or stiff plastic parts that get in the way of leg possibility on bootleg figures. Like skirts or robes
You HAVE to review the bootleg Made comic version Spider-Man
Sweet enjoyable and informative Sir thank you.
Umm you could’ve sanded down the ball joint or heated it up to make it fit instead of freezing it.
Yo is he double jointed his thumbes finna break
14:00 Can't you enlarge the socket with a round file or X-acto blade? If you over-file it, you can build it back up with superglue. Then rinse & repeat until everything fits.
Oh, okay. Well then maybe building up the socket & ball joint with superglue? Unless it's a total mis-match of bootleg parts,lol. FYI: You can remove superglue with a debonder : www.amazon.com/Bob-Smith-Industries-BSI-161H-UN-CURE-Super-Glue-Debonder-1-fl-oz/dp/B0166FFC96
Use sparingly because it can start to eat into plastic. Acetone also works.
Dude my old spiderman 3 symbiote spiderman has extreamly loose joints a broken croch and a kinda broken shoulder i really wanna get this figure fixed it was my childhood toy could u maybe be able ti fix something like that and how?thanks love ur channel btw
Do you show anything on how to fix my bootleg inosuke? He came with 2 left feet… literally 2 left feet 👀 I was thinking of just covering his foot with diorama grass but idk
Dude, i have a ZAMASU Fusion bootleg and the big purple arm peg broke, what can I do?
Where do I send it to you and where
Wow your using rejuvenate and not pledge floor care
fig 2026 they stopped making floor care
I have a bootleg goku black do you think you can fix it up for me?
What if you spray these bootlegs with Matt finish coat? What do you think?
i dont have any rejuvenate in my area. What do i use?
Floor Care
Johan Maserati thanks man!
Can you put rejuvenate in the elbow joint or not? I’m wondering because of the metal in it
Are you going to get back to Android 18 at some point? I'd love to see you fix her as she's my only bootleg, and a little shitty.
You sing vary welll
Make a repairing NECA Pacific Rim figures
Does anyone know how to/if it’s possible to add gaps between a figurines fingers
Whered u get the needle?
ik I'm late but I got the bootleg to see how it was like and mines is not that bad the left knee is lose and putting the head on is a pain but its actually pretty good for 20 bucks
but get the real one :>
I mean there is an official cheaper alternative to figuarts from Bandai: Dragon Stars and Anime Heroes.
And they probably cost the same as this KO did.
Hi, do you know where I can find a bootleg revoltech midoryia? I'm trying to find one to fix it up so I don't need to pay 100
Demoniacal fit im a joke to you
D star may we use also use super glue for the loose part?
Your thumbs have 25 points of articulation. 😅👍
Can you restore itach SHF?
How to your thumbs bend alot
thanks i accidentally bought bootleg dio and i’m gonna do these
I’m gonna order bootleg iron spider then fix it
I have a Figuarts Luke and Teen Gohan that have the wrist ball snapped off into the wrist of one of their hands.
Would it be possible to fix that?
you'll need to drill out the broken peg and find the same peg joint from a bootleg to replace that.
You could have just asked the guy who owned Goku Black if they wanted to replace the joint or not.
has anyone tried this? i want to try this on a figure but idk if its legit
Do you have a broken thumb?
Can you please fix my figure it's broken his leg fell off
Link in description to send him it
Where i can buy that rejuvenate????
You can probably get it online, but if you can't find any, floor care will do just fine.
Where do you get the syringes from?
You can buy blunt tip syringes from cvs for like 40 cents each
Hello can u help me restore bootleg android 21
Can you fix mine pls?
I ordered a s h figuarts goku black on a website called bonanza for 23 dollars or so and after watching I feel it's gonna be a bootleg so I'm super worried about it
That is 100% going to be a bootleg.
@@darthkamen6564 Shit! Do you know where I can get a good one I already checked D stars website and a bunch of other ones.
@@jtbloon30140 There's actually a really good goku black "knockoff" called "Chosen Ones" by demonaical fit. He actually reviewed it on this channel, and it's nearly identical to the official one! And it's only $60 as opposed to the 100 or so you'd spend for a real one. It even comes with the sythe from the convention re-release! So I'd go for that one if I were you, you can find it on aliexpress. Demonaical fit also has figures of the ginyu force, and they're making super saiyan 4 goku.
KO Mafex Comic Spidey is out. REVIEW IT.
@@dstar01 exxccceelllleeennnntttt

I have the goku figuerarts
love vids
Fixed and looks offical
1955 - 2024
You can't restore it. True you can paint it with airbrush and gunpla paint that similar to ori. If you are skilled, kws won't that bad. Yet, the proportional and quality of the body can't repaired.... Moreover skin color and gradation is nearly impossible to achieve.... Then you must skilled at draw to make of the weird eye, even ori still better.....
At least the articulation is way better, but you are correct you would have to be very skilled in art to even have a chance to make the figure look more detailed.
Who uses a lamborghini plier
I have dragon stats figure that I had for a long time and it works better than this
The easiest way to fix a bootleg is to not buy one.
But sometimes, either we don't know or don't have a choice...
Noice
Sup
531 viewer yay
Firsttt
Your thumbs make me cringe it's looks like it might break
or you were sold a bootleg thinking it was real because of the price you paid
