    Thanks for this in-depth look into the restoration!

    The application of the flocking had me worried it would come out flat and possibly piled on. I'm impressed that it came out like an actual buzz cut and like the original Joe's. Nice job!

    Very enjoyable video. I've done a number of Action Man adventurers in shades of grey/white/silver. To guys I've sold them to, the feedback has been great. Mostly I think because us mature guys (50+) who owned the originals like the figures to have "aged" like ourselves. We've all aged....so why not our action figures too? Some of my projects even get glasses too. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

      Thanks Chris, yeah its fun getting them back in action, I usually just restore them original, but felt the need to go custom this time.

    Thanks for the video. How does this method compare to electrostatic method?

    • @TheSkullReviews
      @TheSkullReviews  5 лет назад +1

      I prefer the results from the electrostatic machine, it looks much more professional.

    I’ve never actually held a 1970’s or 1960’s Joes but watching all these restoration-videos should help me repair one of necessary when I get one also, out of how many in box gi Joes I bought none have dog tags so how do I find some without paying a fortune on eBay?

    How durable is the flocking? Does it rub off?

    • @TheSkullReviews
      @TheSkullReviews  Год назад

      Very durable, holds up well, it has to be dunked in rubbing alcohol for a few hours to remove it.

    I got one just like this except the fingers are sort of mostly gone when Cotswold gets the correct hands then I can get his hands refurbished.

    • @reepacheirpfirewalker8629
      @reepacheirpfirewalker8629 6 лет назад +1

      I saw that. Was counting the ones I need hopefully won't run out of money., I've got like ten or more classic bodies that those hard hands just can't hold things right.

    • @TheSkullReviews

    Great job. I had one of my Joe's customized with the same flock some girl in Florida does it for about 12 bucks lol. Have you ever tried restoring The Mobile Support Vehicle adventure team set rotating radar and light purchased a boxed one on eBay and just searching for any tips. Thanks
