    The amount of detail in your stickers alone would make for fascinating videos themselves. Brilliant.

    Hmm... The two tabs in the back, so close to the wall, makes you wonder if the plan originally was to have some sort of cardboard backdrop there. I guess we will never know. But I really love your upgrade on this! Absolutely brilliant!

    • @toypolloi
      @toypolloi  7 років тому

      Is that why people like my voice? ASMR

    • @LMUstacker
      @LMUstacker 7 років тому

      you're a pretty good combination: the topic itself is relaxing, and I found a video ASMR of a guy just washing star wars figures with "hot, soapy water"; your attitude and voice are both calm and relaxing too. Also, there's something else, it's not ASMR, but it's known to be addicting especially to men: fixing, repairing and restoring. Just make a tv show about people de-rusting iron using vinegar, recycle plastic to get plastic dust, melt computer parts to get gold, clean old coins, restoring old objects, buying/selling old stuff to make a profit, and you'll have millions of males mesmerized in front of the screen, just like girls in front of a shoe shop. I suspect that dirty, ugly, yellow, ruined star wars toys could end up selling at the same price as the ones in good conditions, because people see your videos and they want to try themselves with the restoration, and they are so addicted to the idea, that ironically they would pay any price to restore rubbish items :D

      Thanks. I wanted to show the process that goes into making something like this, and without the music it would be a very long silent video.

So I may do a special video in future of real time photoshop work for the hardcore people who like that sort of thing.

The way it is supposed to move was the 2 treads would roll forward to drive forward, and to turn, one would move forward, one would move back. Instead, Only the tread that moved forward would move whatsoever. So no matter how you move him, he would always spin in a circle. Figured it's a slipping gear or something that isn't catching right?
