Toys Back Zen
Канада
Добавлен 13 янв 2018
This channel is all about vintage toy collecting and getting that feeling that you had when you opened your GI Joes for the first time. I do a lot of restoring and repairs on old toys as a hobby and hope to help people to do the same. Sometimes just buying a modern toy in the image of something from the past is things I like to document and show off to others. I'm starting to get into photography and really enjoy posting on Instagram. Connecting and watching others is fun and I love the community, so join me on my journey.

Grimsword Repair Dungeons & Dragons LJN Figure Restoration
It's just insane to me they would go to all the trouble of this reproduction and leave out the bomb stickers. Why? How many fractions of a cent could it have possibly cost? Also not a fan of the stickers you do get coming pre-applied. I'm glad I waited and got mine for $20 on a cyber monday deal, if I had even paid a full shelf price I'd have been disappointed and upset with the entire purchase, let alone what the reissues were going for like a hundred on amazon.
Cool video dude, love street sharks, Im currently collecting the line. Some corrections, the only repaints are series 2 and 5. Series 4 is all original new figures, as well as series 6 space force, all new.
these pens bother me, they look great, but seem to interact badly with the oils on my hands and will leave permanent gray finger prints on the surface in within seconds despite being left to dry for weeks
I just realized that your logo is a GI Joe T-bar! Stupid me! 🤦🏻
😂 my computer graphic art skills could be the reason but I’m glad you figured it out.
Ive seen Toy Polloi use super glue snd baking soda to repair gears.
My mother HATED these toys. It was the only toy line I was able to get a good number of pieces for, and she basically made me sell them off because she hated how I had to attach them to furniture to get the most playtime out of them. LOL
That sucks, but being a parent I get it.
I had this toy and couldn't remember what it was called. Thanks for bringing back those memories!
You’re welcome. Cheers!
Bit late to the party but man oh man do I love this build! Great job! Downloaded the files, think I'll throw them into Blender and add some more details, very cool Viper. And dang these songs make me miss the '70s.
Yeah, it was fun. Have fun, love to see it when you’re done.
Nice haul! I have that same Imperial green dino at the 7:30 mark. I bought him as a child to go with my Mattel Flash Gordon figures back in 1980. Had lots of great adventures with those toys. I STILL have that dino AND my Flash Gordon figures too.
Some day I’m going to grab the 3 3/4 Flash Gordon figures, I’ve always liked them. I never see them in my area, they are really cool.
@@toysbackzen Loose figures turn up all the time at a fair price.
Nice save! I started using the orange bottle back around the late 90's for plastic model kits. I'm a micronaut collector. I played with the solvent glue to repair them too. Worked great! Micronauts has a 5mm plug and play feature. The sockets can get cracks in them. A drop of solvent glue and hold the socket wall together with a wooden close pin for a few minutes. Good as new.
Very cool!
Nice save! Lots of hard work really paid off. As for the net clips being in the wrong place. You could just leave them, for added detail. Then glue a new set in the correct place.
Good idea!
That thing is screaming to be GI Joe customized
Nice work, looks better than new 👍
Extremely pro customs! Thanks for sharing, it's inspiring!
Glad you like them! I have the rest getting ready to film.
Nice Build T B.Z. I love Building stuff for my 12 In Figurescby Repurposing Trash throw away or Bought items from Dollar Store I shared this with acfew Groups
Thanks George for watching, nice to hear from you again! Thanks for sharing my videos I appreciate it a lot.
I cracked mine open in a vise. No knife, no deep scratches, it craced open along the seams.
I’ve seen other people use a hammer too, I find that risky because I ruined 3 Skelators using that method. The knife I find after a little practice you have more control.
I have about 200 packs unopened, are they worth anything ?
Not to me, they were free but the fact that they were only available for a limited time in Canada they may be worth something to a Marvel, Card collector who needs to have them. Do your research, for me they are worthless but fun to collect.
Awesome work!!
Thank you! Cheers!
The Pennywise Super7reaction figure with the balloon is super fucking awesome and my best favorite even though I do not have that figure in my collection.
Happy Halloween! HahahahahahahaHAHa
@toysbackzen Thanks dawg
WD-40 can sometimes help with screws in that condition. I've had to drill a few out when the heads get stripped like that, its amazing how solid a little screw can be. Where do you get those rubber O-rings, I have an old COPS action figure that needs a replacement.
You can get the Orings at any hardware store. Home Depot, Rona. Thanks for the tip.
He needs a rocket launcher. And DEFINITELY put him with your Joes. Had I kept my collection, and knew of that Rambo fig, he’d be part of the team! And you’re a Luthier by trade?!? Awesome dude! I play Bass and Lead off/on 40+ years now. LOVE the guitar!!! 🤣✌️🤘🇨🇦
Yeah, I had a rocket launcher and tried it but he couldn’t hold it right without swivel arms. 🎸🤘
@ Heat gun on launcher handle?
I would paint the pelvis to match the new legs. It seems the less tedious route for a better color match. Otherwise, great work!
Probably Carolco. A lot of the time, it's the movie company. My 3 3/4" M*A*S*H figures say Tristar on the legs.
I don’t know if it would work, but you could also try running a drill bit in reverse it might just have enough to unscrew it especially since it’s just in plastic
Tried it, didn’t budge.
Pin drill, and a 1/8 counter-bit.
I am not a big fan of the modern figures I grew up in the 1980s when GI Joe was great I always loved the vintage stuff why don't they just re-release the vintage toys?
I agree, Super 7 is doing GI Joe Oring figures now but I think they look terrible.
I would use Cast,n Craft Silicone Mold Putty. And make press Mold You can get resin from Hobby Lobby Or mix 2 Part epoxy and a tiny bit of Durham Water putty
I’ve been interested in trying mold puddys. I’ll try that thanks.
The helmet is the Steel Brigade helmet.
Yes
I keep seeing them. I keep drooling. But I’m in the 1:6 universe and have to stay there… I REALLY appreciate the 6 inch format because of all the 3D printing stuff the independent guys are doing for them to glam them up. However, I DID break out the idiot proof 3D printer the wife bought me, and 1:6 may just change a bit…🤣🤣🤣✌️🤘🇨🇦
Nice, I have a 3D printer too. Got into it heavy but haven’t printed in a while. It’s definitely fun, I recommend it. By the way Classifieds are awesome, it’s the only line I collect 6” and tried to stay away too but I got a couple and now I’m hooked.
@@toysbackzen I get it. I have some ideas for the 1:6 vehicles that will make them more like ARAH. THEN my custom Clutch will have his proper ride! 🤣🤣🤣✌️🤘🇨🇦
That sounds amazing.
@@toysbackzen Be amazed when I ACTUALLY get it done with all my OTHER projects in the pipe!🤣🤣🤣To be fair… since I’m home bound for a bit… Wait and watch… I have two of my favourite characters from that era almost done. That kids play foam that hardens has saved me some hardcore issues; including the Twins shoulder armour that has that weird flow into the chest and upper neckline… Stuff paints real nice with the chrome pens, and seal beautifully with the acrylic clear coating. Just utilized it to build Breaker’s headset… Sorry; been kooked up for 9 days until Halloween for older man issues: kidney stone.🤣🤣🤣
hello, thanks for sharing the video. anyways, do you need a graphic artist to work on your yt logo and banner? update and redesign logo? for a cheap price...
No thanks, not right now. If I do decide I need your services in the future I’ll definitely let you know.
@@toysbackzen Ok I understand. Just want to help you to update your logo and create an updated banner on your channel. It will only cost you 60 bucks. stay safe and God bless.
My grail figure. I always wanted one, but never got either of the two versions.
Are they still any good . Superstore no longer have them
I think they are cool! I’m not really a card collector but I enjoyed getting them when they were available, I have a few more to get. I’ve been trading on Facebook to try to complete the set.
Backlash is a big one! I had Crossbolt (the other one you showed), Thunderwolf and Brimstone. Loved them. Would grab some from Ebay, but I'm too broke.
As far as the molding goes, just pretend it's either wear & tear, or slight battle damage. I do like the mud coloring, that's a nice touch. Every kid that had a GI Joe collection, had at least this Cobra toy in it. I don't know of one kid that didn't have a HISS tank. Nothing beats the GI Joe Classified series HISS tank, that thing is awesome. My only beef with it was the size, which is why I didn't bother with it.
I agree, I hardly have room for the Classifieds figures so the HISS was a no go as well as the price point. I had to buy the Stinger and just got the Tiger Paw. I just can’t hold back on some of the vehicles, they’re just too cool!
@@toysbackzen I have the Baroness with the Cobra COIL, I got it off eBay for a good price. I backed the Cobra Rattler, I missed out getting it as a kid, didn't want to make that mistake a second time. Hoping it isn't too colossal, otherwise, I'll just take a bunch of pictures of it & then put it back in its box. Been looking at the Classified series Cobra Ferret also. Hoping they (Haslabs) make an updated FLAK canon, that's another GI Joe toy I had as a kid.
I love seeing videos about less popular toys 👍
😮😮😮😮🎉
When I was a kid and Terror Claw Skeletor came out we all thought it was awesome.
Why is he wearing a pink sports bra? 😅
😂🤣
I stuffed my rope in there as a kid to make sure I didn't lose it.
I always look for hidden accessories now because of kids like you! 😀
That GoBot is named Tic Tac. Combines to form Puzzler. I've always liked the GoBots, but DAMN did they get some truly awful names. ALL BEWARE TIC TAC.
😂😂😂yes, the names are silly but I’ve always liked GoBots too.
The Action Force is a cosmic cruiser, just missing its canopy.
The firebird car looks like a penny racer. Not the usual Takara one though.
Did anyone tape the safety down so they could just shoot it in the air? None of you, I'm sure. :)
That sword you were showing with the D&D character is from the Rattle Me Bones board game ☠️
Awesome thanks for that, I wasn’t aware of this game until now. Cheers
I believe that gun is part of Rio Blast's backpack from vintage MOTU.
Yes, thanks! I have a whole box of accessories that I can’t identify.
Just discovered your channel and subscribed. And watched this cartoon but never had any of the toys they look like a lot of fun. Thanks for the great review.
You’re welcome, thanks for watching and the sub!
To make it even more confusing there was a LICENSED version in 1982 that had the same shape battery cover as the bootleg version! The original Japanese Astromagnum could have red, clear, or pink translucent parts.
THAT IS NOT GALACTIC MAN / SHACKWAVE!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is Transformable Robot Pistol, which is a bootleg that was sold at Eckerds and KayBee in 1985!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had one, it was a awesome addition to my Star Wars fleet of ships
I think I heard someone say it was an avalanche canon, used for clearing excess snow off a mountain.
I like that idea, I’m sure there is some blurb in a GI Joe history book that explains it.
