Very cool toy haul. Never saw that boat before either. Doesn't look like it's an actual GIJOE. Looks like maybe an adventure man item. The Bat Mobile is super cool too. I actually have the one from my childhood. It has the same problem as this one. As most do. I love your modesty about the repair though. However it does make me curious. Has there ever been a toy that you've legitimately tried to fix, but couldn't. I don't think I've ever heard you talk about it if there has been. I would be curious to know. Might even be a cool video. I'm sure others would like to hear about it as well. Hope you have a great Day sir, and as always thank you for everything.
The Batmobile is really cool, and I have managed to get it fixed, phew. I think I have mentioned in some Q&A's about toys that have me stumped for fixes. But it could be a good topic. Cheers
Hi Dave, I had that very Batmobile! It came from Normans, an independent supermarket similar to a smaller Trago Mills, in Tiverton, Devon. I had all sorts of toys from there in the 80s, including a bunch of the Kenner Super Powers figures, that just weren't in any other shops. Their product buyer must have had some contacts, because not only did they regularly get stuff you didn't see anywhere else here in Devon in the 80s, it was always cheap as well!
That sounds like a cool shop. This is the first one I have seen in the UK. Don't think it got to my part of the country when I was growing up as I'm sure I would have remembered it.
Thank you for the plug! And thank you to those who just subscribed. I hope I am worthy of your support. I hope you enjoy everything! Looking forward to the repairs. And those 3D parts! Wow! I think I need to find an AT-AT shell!
My pleasure. Thanks again for the Batmobile. It was a really interesting project to work on. Always nice to fix something I have never seen before. The way they are constructed is always fascinating.
Great haul, love your channel. The pygmy gorilla came with the pontoon boat it also came with a movie camera . As I recall it also came with a net. The one I had came with a Gijoe figure with camouflage fatigues.
Thanks Dave, those 3D printed parts look fantastic. I'm guessing he used a resin printer? I recently bought an Ender 3 filament printer to print some missing parts for my Y-Wing etc as it's impossible to find affordable parts these days. The two hobbies should complement themselves nicely.
Oh boy, the Super Powers figures from McFarlane have caused Michael the Moron over on Retrobastard, sorry I mean Retroblasting to have an aneurysm....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey Dave
Some great stuff for upcoming videos... especially looking forward, to watch you fix the Batmobile 🦇
Take care

Great content as usual.
I didn’t think I could respect you more, then I saw the colour of your brew, good lad.
Keep up the great work, Dave!
🤣☕🖖
Nice collection of 3D printed parts for a AT AT I don't have yet worth visiting there ebay site and having it saved to come back to
Looking forward to the future Batmobile restoration video, Dave.
That will be along very soon on TP.

Really nice items for future projects!
Hey Dave. That Batmobile looks pretty fantastic. I like the design a lot. Great video. Thanks.
It took me 3 Batmobiles to make one complete one. I’m planning to model the ram in Tinkercad at some point. It’s not going to be easy. 😂

TP always delivers!
Looking forward to the fixes
Wow those xwing canopy's look amazing!
They are the best I have seen. The price is very affordable as well.
Lovin that RX78-2 mug.
It's a classic!
The Action man version of that boat is the Jungle Explorer river craft
i guess that vader is thinking as he looks at his missing parts - not this again....hahaha
Oooo. I like your Gundam mug!
Thanks. It's really old now, but a favorite of mine.

Crocodile has a long nose alligator has a rounded off nose. Nice Gundam cup 😁
Thanks 👍
That little thing is just a figment of your imagination.
fun story that batmobile it inspired k.i.t.t's super hot pursute mode with its extendible bits
I could believe that. They do look the same.
Another great video mate ❤
John Wild shows a repair if you're interested.
I'll give it a watch. This one is all fixed up now and you will see it over on TP in a few weeks. Cheers

Oh Lordy, certain FB groups will be losing their minds 😂
