Love the way you think! For me, I may have changed the launcher connection bits to make it much stronger...but you manage to always keep the repair small, yet SOLID! I have never owned one but watching you bring this back to life is making me think twice about tracking one down! Top Notch.......AGAIN!!
Thanks for the mention, Dave! I’m glad the bits were useful. Also, I must say you’re one of very few who have pronounced my last name correctly on the first go! Eagerly looking forward to part four!
Hey Dave I believe I had said this a few years ago, however here it is again😉 *I am not sure how you come up with most of your fixes, however I do know that I enjoy watching them very much!* Take care of Yourselves.
With liquid cement like Plastic Weld, you might find it easier to hold the piece in place then run the cement along the join with the brush - capillary attraction will carry the cement along the join.
Another way you could have made the missile holder is to make the two big sections that have a slit missing half way up the middle on one side and half way down the middle on the other one. Then they could slide together for a sturdier bond.
So watching and thinking about those lego parts used as clips... Do you think something like that could be used as replacement "feet/claws" for the birds of gi joe? Like spirit's freedom or raptor's falcon. I've been trying to get my birds to perch again for a long time. Haha.
I do not know if the dividers should of been 4 pieces, when 2 pieces would of worked and probably stronger. Make it with 2 solid pieces, notch out the middle some to allow them to slide together.
You could do that, but it's a lot more work to cut a notch and get it to line up. This works just fine and is very strong. No point making extra work for yourself. Keep it as simple as you can. Cheers
You Mr. Polloi are a magician.
Awesome 👍🏾👍🏾 you have become amazing fixer of these old classic toy's and getting them back to good working order 👍🏾😀
Your voice is so soothing!
Sir, you are a genius!
Looking great!
Don't forget the barrel tips...very easy to overlook.
Excellent job
I have this hovercraft.
Perfect condition.
I took care of my toys.
Such passion! Amazing.

Looks good! Can't wait for the next update.
Stroke of genius on creating that hook on the missile. Really enjoyed this whole restoration. Bravo Dave!!

Thanks Dwayne! And glad I got it right. I did do a bit of research on how to say it.
I've really enjoyed watching this Tpy come together. I'm looking forward to seeing more in the series as well as other GI Joe sets.
makes perfect sense to have the desert warfare expert out at sea.
He kept his gun on board, so he must enjoy it :D
@@toypolloi It's better than being in zero G on the space station with the Fatal Fluffies.
By far one of the coolest toys I remember as a kid, great to see you fixing it up!

Wow, thanks

You are welcome.
I have used a lot of your ideas in every day cases, not just toys.
Thank you for sharing it all on your channel Dave.🙂
Looks great, when modelling any war time vehicle there are always panels that are newer/less faded/different shade paints so it is quite realistic!
That's good as the final toy is made up of all sorts of bits. It looks great to me!

Great restoration video. Just tried to go watch part 2 and it's not working or unavailable
Should be there, it works for me. Cheers
@@toypolloi yeah its working now, thanks =)
I want to purchase the plastic nippers to trim off parts of the plastic. What’s the exact name of the clippers so I can purchase them also. ???
Check out the tool shop section of toypolloi.com
I Buy one but It need parts!!!
Check this guy out on Facebook in the G.I. Joe Barracks Group. Custom made pieces
facebook.com/groups/GIJoeBarracks/permalink/654107885375193/
Is there a significant difference between the G.I. Joe Killer W.H.A.L.E and the Action Force Killer W.H.A.L.E. besides the brand and color?
This guy needs a 3d printer!
I like the different colors you could always say those parts were damaged in battle and they were replaced that’s why the colors look slightly off

If it meant stopping Cobra, the Joes would absolutely use Legos to repair their vehicles!
