Absolutely stunning, to say the least! Also Big Bear playing Tetris took me off "guard"! Definitely had a good laugh! XD You're an inspiration, man! Thanks for sharing your time and these videos! Yo Joski!
And it's Tetris, the only video game approved by the Soviet Union for the Oktober Guard :) This version is a keychain my wife had but it's really close to perfect scale and it's fully functional just like the real game.
Woaaah! Awesome! I didn’t know about these October Guard figures… Nice! Looks really good. Really well made, up to the colors. One little trick on hinges, you can also use a 1mm styrene rod. It works just as good with the added benefit of snapping off rather than distorting the hinges if you drop the vehicle upside down. Styrene pin is easy to adjust and replace.
I never knew there were that many octobre guard figures.. I only have red starr and big bear.. that was an awesome customization man.. hat's off to you.. big bear playing the tetris!🤣
Excellent video... That's a project I'd really like to do myself to upgrade my OG figures with more vehicular firepower. Fun story, from when I was a regular guest at a lot of comic cons, and back when I was creating artwork and helping develop (unofficial game expansion) cards for the GI Joe TCG several years ago, I had spoken with Michael Golden at Heroes Con in Charlotte, and let him look at my work. We chatted for quite awhile about several pieces that struck him, as I had illustrated MOST of the Oktober Guard characters for the sets... And THEN he found the vehicle artwork for the same ones featured in that Joe yearbook that you referenced here, and I told him that since they didn't appear to have designated codenames, like the Vamp or MOBAT, we had decided to name the bigger vehicle (which you've re-created here) as the VANGUARD and the smaller 6-wheeler as the Dynamo... He loved those codenames and talked about revisiting that story and having Hama include those names in the dialogue. Also, a few years ago, I found an actual 6-wheeler with some accessories, in the Joe scale, to use as my Dynamo... Real world something or other toy line(?), which I've found the watchtower playset and some others on Amazon, so shouldn't be difficult for you to find, if you're interested, of course. Aside from that, I've painted a version of the APC to make a troop transport, and recreated the convention exclusive motorcycle from a Movie line bike that was almost all gray, but the name escapes me at the moment, starts with an 'S' I believe though...🤔 I've got a couple of other things in mind to do also, using a couple of Captain America & Jurassic something toys, so I'm looking forward to those, as well.
@@ActionRobotPunch And thanks for inspiring me and others! I'm actually working on adding weapons and paint-apps to a MOTU Origins Wind Raider... I've also got some upcoming projects inspired by "King Arthur And The Knights Of Justice."
Probably not. It's a lot of manual work to cut and fit everything and then paint and stickers. I'd have to charge a crazy amount. But I do sell the 3D files on my etsy shop so anyone can do this project themselves.
What a fantastic job! Thanks for putting me on to this; found a seller in Belarus doing a good deal. Really love the toyetic (& somewhat crappy) aspects of this toy. Can't wait to give mine a gaudy camo repaint & slap some Cobra logos on it 😁
Exactly. The sort of low quality detail and soft plastic make this a real toys’ toy. When working on these I always try to be mindful that I’m not making a Tamiya model diorama but a child’s toy. Good luck on the project and thanks for watching.
That is awesome! I just saw the pics you sent me on Etsy. Just brilliant. You've inspired me to get moving on more projects. Is ok it I showed you pics in future videos? Thanks for sharing.
ha, ha! from Russia, no less! I wonder if it was not possible to scan all pieces, then scale up with the computer. then, 3d print all to get the proper scale to fit. you re quite lucky to have all members of the guard, I never achieved it myself. I find that to have all 4 factions is the best thing to have for scenarios. again, with what you had, it s a pretty good result. I enjoyed watching the process. good work!
Aweeeeeeesoòooome!!!! Great, great job. Amazing...!!! Can you do a tutorial on how to 3D print? I know there's a tsunami of RUclips videos about it but all of the ones I've seen are confusing as hell...🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🤝🏼🤝🏼🤝🏼 Again, Jaw dropping job on that APC...🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
👏 bravo! That looks great and I would have absolutely loved this. Would you have been able to scan the toy and printed an upscaled version? One that could fit them sitting and not be exposed?
I just got this myself I think I watched this week's ago and probably reason I bought it. I guess I'll have to modify mine too. Sadly, I don't have a 3d printer and will have to use styrene.
Thanks. No I haven't but would love to. The Elite Force Hind is way too expensive now so probably won't ever work on that toy. But someday I will create a proper chopper for the Oktober Guard :)
Thanks, glad you dig it. I have the STL files up for sale in my etsy store. You can print them or find someone to print them for you. And the base tank is on amazon. www.etsy.com/shop/SuperRobotPunch?ref=seller-platform-mcnav
Like Star Wars? Not that I can think of. I do have a few of the Super 7 figures pre-ordered but I don't think I'd make something just for them. I bet they'll fit in most Joe vehicles that don't require a knee bend. Thanks for watching!
These are awesome vehicle from Russia, I bought one too. Have you seen their S300 veh and it radar truck? They work well with GI Joe. I just bought a 3d printer, haven't hooked it up yet, just wondering what kind of software you have to make these parts. Plus what did you use to scan your APC?
Putin would be proud to b Putin some more troops in there.Nice ending I can give you a small tip use a paddle bit in your corners of your cuts and it will simplify the corners of your cuts.. 😊🤓😏
I couldn’t believe the vehicle you used, I bought this vehicle well over a year ago for my October guard but just felt I couldn’t do anything with it because no hatches opened or anything, I would love to create the vehicle you have made, have you ever thought of selling the 3-D parts if so please let me know so I can start this project .. thank you for all the great videos
@@ActionRobotPunch now all you need to do is draw up more "add-ons" for this and other joe vehicles. maybe a different weapon system for the vamps, or a ski attachment for a winterized vamp, different missile system for the wolverine, or even just extra equipment or greebles for joe vehicles
@@ActionRobotPunch get busy designing and you might be able to. If I bought this btr, I'd buy your stuff to put on it. I have a longer 30, but i'd rather buy the printed product thats printed great, than print myself and it not be that good.
We need to be friends, I'm working on doing everything you did in this video. Everything. I would appreciate bouncing ideas back and forth with you. I have a scanner and 4 printers, cnc, and laser. Also have you thought about selling those STLs or the parts? I'd pay.
Nice. Sounds like you have your own toy factory ready to roll :) I have a few of my STLs up on thingiverse for free for folks to print and play around with and some prints and stls for sale on Etsy. Here are links : www.etsy.com/shop/SuperRobotPunch and www.thingiverse.com/superrobotpunch/designs
Great video my man but I don't really wanna be that guy but actually the BTR-80 is not a tank it's part of the BTR family of amphibious APCs but other than that really great custom I plan on doing the same thing but I won't do the big back hatch because I want the engine and things like that probably just gonna stuff the other figures in the large hollow space and also if your interested I'm working on my own 1:18 scale toy line but in the original three and three quarter inch scale and what I plan on doing is essentially make real world vehicles both old and new probably more old ones at first because I just love vintage military and stuff like that but with similar details to vintage g.i joe and then some plus plenty of my own unique creations and what I want to do send some stuff to some g.i Joe RUclipsrs to spread the word and if your interested I would like to send you some things when my line is ready to roll out but it probably won't start until a few years from now but anyways great video my man and really great custom inspiration.
@@ActionRobotPunch I am TOTALLY serious. I love the Oktober Guard and I LOVE your vehicle. So if you want to make one and sell it for a good price, reply back. Think of it this way...a way to make investment capital for your next masterpiece!
You're right, the BTR is an APC, though you shouldn't judge a vehicle based on tracks vs wheels. There are APCs and IFVs that also use tracks, like the good old M113. I wonder if Hasbro ever thought about making one of those for Gi Joe instead of the "APC" we got?

I watch alot of GI joe custom videos but this one really blew me away, particularly in how you overcame the scale issue. It looks amazing!
Wow, thanks! That's really appreciated.
Absolutely stunning, to say the least! Also Big Bear playing Tetris took me off "guard"! Definitely had a good laugh! XD
You're an inspiration, man! Thanks for sharing your time and these videos! Yo Joski!
Thanks so much. I'm glad to hear that someone spotted the Tetris joke :) It's a little subtle and easy to miss.
3:53 Holy shit, 1:18 standup arcade cabinets with ANIMATION? Freakin' sweet!
And it's Tetris, the only video game approved by the Soviet Union for the Oktober Guard :) This version is a keychain my wife had but it's really close to perfect scale and it's fully functional just like the real game.
When I Grow up I want to make cool G.I. Joe stuff. 👍
Awesome. Thanks for watching.
You are such a genius! I can't stop watching your videos...
Wow, thank you! Glad you're enjoying them.
That is extremely impressive.
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
Awesome Job. October Guard does deserve some love.
Absolutely. They have so much character. Thanks 👍
One of the nicest customs i have seen in quite a while.
Thank you, that's really appreciated.

Thanks man 👍 great tip. I’ll need to get some styrene rod and give it a try.
Looks great! I would have painted the vehicle to match the green of the hatches. Very creative!!!
Thanks 👍Matching it all to the same color is a good idea. Honestly I think I got tired and and just wanted to be done with it. Thanks for watching.
I never knew there were that many octobre guard figures.. I only have red starr and big bear.. that was an awesome customization man.. hat's off to you.. big bear playing the tetris!🤣
I'm so glad someone picked up on the tetris thing. It's my favorite part of the video :) Thanks for watching.
That is a Awesome build!💥😯👏🏿👏🏿😁👍🏿
Thanks so much!
Very creative , incredible detail and extremely informative ...two thumbs up.
Thanks, that's really appreciated.

Haha, thanks man. Glad you're enjoying the customs.
@@ActionRobotPunch yah come to Madison and I'll show you what collection I've got
Very impressive. I'd create the engine in the back and forget about having a spot for 4 more personnel for my APC
That's a fun idea. I could just replace the seats in the back area with a mocked up engine compartment.
@@ActionRobotPunch have either side open up or the back end so one of the troops can be posed like they are doing engine work too
I suggest taking a look at my scratch built vehicles. I believe you all will enjoy
Yeah, your work is great 👍
👏 bravo! That looks great and I would have absolutely loved this. Would you have been able to scan the toy and printed an upscaled version? One that could fit them sitting and not be exposed?
Thanks so much. I could make it bigger for sure. 👍

I just worked on a unimog with no 3d printing. It's really fun. Good luck.
This is awesome! Have you don anything with a G.I. Joe scale Mil 24 released by Elite Force?
Thanks. No I haven't but would love to. The Elite Force Hind is way too expensive now so probably won't ever work on that toy. But someday I will create a proper chopper for the Oktober Guard :)
@@ActionRobotPunch when that day comes i hope you post a clip of the creation process.

Yo that isht is awesome if I had the money I would definitely have u customize something for me for the cobra
