This method spreads the open end of rivet without maring the plastic thanks again for your vids its good to see others doin these repairs
Thanks. It’s a trial and error system for sure. I’m glad more people are making how-to videos. Hopefully it helps! Imo one I’ve learned a thing or two!
There's nothing wrong with using repair parts, as long as you are up front about it.
Your repair job speaks for itself, and you did great!
Semper Fi!
Thanks again, I learn something every time.
Nice one skunk, karate Tim 🥋🙏🇬🇧
Very nice tribute. Semper Fi!
You restored him for you and brought him back from the bitz box to a level where he represents what he should be and you are happy with. No man left behind. Hoorah.👍
🙏🤜🤛🍺
Brilliant video. I'm actually trying to restore an Action Man Talking Commander - just like the beloved one I had in the mid seventies when I was a kid. Great job.
Great video Jeff. What I do for talkers while trying to stretch out the bungee cord for the lower torso. I use a acid brush. I slip the bungee cord over the acid brush and take that acid brush and slip it over the pin and then just roll the bungee cord over it. It makes it really easy to do.
Thanks for the tip, I’ll give that a try!!! 🤜🤛🍺
Good idea
@@skunkworksstudios 🤜🤛🍻
16 penny nail for rivet flanging lightly tap with malot i have found this works well with patients i like your vids i have been repairing these typ of joes since 74 yes im that old
Awsome job Jeffstet
Here is my take. These were designed to be played with, not designed to sit in a glass case, while some fat snob-slob collects 17 copies of the same Joe so he can deprive the rest of us, and make a mint every time he sells one.
I have lot's of MSV's, the AM version of the Big Trapper, Tower, Jeeps etc. Many were sun damaged, so I customized them. If you're customizing or replacing original parts with Cotswold, all the power to you!!! You're keeping the Joe's alive.
Take it from me, I have a prosthetic right leg....it wasn't made by Cotswold, and it certainly wasn't made in Pawtucket!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🤜🤛🍺
I think it’s fun. Glad you mentioned the service people that won’t come home. Enjoy the toy. It’s wonderful to have hobbies
Congrats, you hit 500 subscribers buddy!!!!!!
Love this video, great job!
Great restoration video Jeff. Cotswold Collectables is a God send!! Great products @ a reasonable price!! I buy from them all the time.
No doubt. They’re probably the only site I buy from on the reg.
@@skunkworksstudios I have no problem with mixing vintage & repro parts. It's getting to that point in time where you have to unless you want to spend a King's fortune
Model cement meant for model kits works with joes, don’t use too much as the cement works by melting the plastic together
Dude…I don’t know what to say. I am so glad you dedicated this video as you did. Believe me, those that care will never forget and we’ll make sure those that don’t care feel like sh!t every day.
Now, in my opinion the further we get away from 1964 the further away we are from doing what you do. I don’t mind replacement parts, it only shows the figure is important. Thanks again!
🙌⚡️🤜🤛
What does he actually say when his fog tag is pulled??
Maybe one day you can line your Work Table with Rubber
Lol
Awesome
Very nice tribute to the Marines, that was a fun project to follow, nice job getting him back in action buddy.
Love the dedication to those brave Marines! Nice job on the restoration.
🙌🙌🙌
Great video! And you can’t always get vintage stuff. IMHO there’s nothing wrong with reproduction parts.
Forgive me if i'm wrong, but the phrase "Enemy Plane! Hit The Dirt!" Is for the talking soldier. So I think he might be taking action soldier figure
I think you’re right! Good catch!
Nice job Jeff. Cotswolds has helped me a ton of times. What would we do without them.Stay cool
Absolutely
I think it's awesome that what you do I'm the same way I buy parts off Cotswold to get the figure back up into action I think it's wonderful the other people that have to have perfection adjust a 60-year-old figure that's it I don't know why prices have just gone totally out of whack because these people think they're worth gold and they're not.
Yeah it’s starting to get pricey. There’s a certain beauty in the imperfection of a figure brought back to life with aftermarket parts!
bummer is you didnt buy the classic hands and used kfg, but hey nice restoration
Where’s the part where you attach the speaker disk?
kinda wish youd greased the flywheel, corrects the voicrvdpeed just dont over lubbe
I’m gonna revisit that at some point this year.
@@skunkworksstudios I understand that, I tinkered with the talkers I repaired for maybe 3 years off and on until they talkedctgecright speed
I think it's cool when you get a gast talker. I think the original Talking Sailor ('67) talked fast. It gives them their own personality. I have an original Talking Soldier a friend gave me that has been talking slower with age. We call him Mumbles. Take the jeep and get sommmmme ammmm moeeee.
FAAAaaasssssst!
I had to stop collecting GI joes because the market is just gotten out of whack people saying that they're made out of gold or platinum also wondering with the Joe's repair have you ever done the muscle body
I have done several. They’re fun to do.
@@skunkworksstudios I have a Frankenstein muscle body the chest is action Man space ranger the bottom half is GI Joe I have the head the only thing I'm trying to figure out is how to attach the two arms that I have could you help the arms are for a non talker
That's dumb, eventually everything gets into replacement parts and the only thing you "prove" with all original staunchness is how deep your pockets are. :\ Objectively you are lucky if parts are being made for your hobby at all, however if the replacement part sucks balls then yeah don't buy them.
Just started getting into vintage restoration a few months ago and there are way too many people dogging repairs period, we all can't afford MIB examples Ie. trapped toys lol, plus all those loose parts shouldn't go to waste. Yeesh, come one? X(
Hat does he actually say...
I think he may not be a marine. I need to do a detailed check
What words d ou es he say when you oull his dog tag....over.
Tired of not getting noticed for your videos! F UA-cam!
Damn! What's up with that! Well I release a video every wed @ 6:30 am so mark it down! Not sure why you can't get the notifications! F youTube is right!
@@skunkworksstudios It might be because they are set as premieres?
@@sonicimperium that’s right…I think….?
