My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.
HUGE thanks to The Crafsman for suggesting this collaboration with me!
I want all his fans to know that he is as chill and cool and awesome in real life as he is in his videos.
You may have given life to an old line. Thank you for showing the way!
It was an honor and a pleasure working with you, sir! I sincerely appreciate your kindness.
I’ve been waiting some time for y’all to team up! Very talented, positive and knowledgeable folks. Thank you.
We knew that, but ALWAYS Great to hear! Thanks for your work, turned out very well; What a Team!
Dude, just started watching your channel because of this. You are a wealth of knowledge!!
Meaning to thank you for introducing me to Roberts channel... Thank you mate
You're so welcome, buddy! His vids pack a punch in the amount-of-info-given-in-a-short-time department.
Crafsman this is insane. I have the biggest Stikfas Collection in the country and I thought I was the only one that remembered them. Thank you for this video. They are from 2006 so the plastic on the non Hasbro ones are brittle now. Hasbros still work great. My favorite creator and my favorite toy all in one video. Melting.
How about Xevoz?
I loooooooved Stikfas! When they were a thing I was only able to get my hand on a few, none of which I have anymore. About once every 2-3 years I scour the internet hoping they are still a thing, but alas, it ends in heartbreak every time.
I was lucky enough to find a comic shop that was closing out some old stuff, and got a whole box full of various STIKFA boxes for dirt cheap! I even got a few of the dragons which I haven’t seen anywhere else.
:)
@@Ponce2170 Never liked Xevos, personally I think Bionicles were the king of that category. I mostly Just have Cuboyds, Every Stikfa and then some, some Shockinis too.
So excited to see this cross over! Robert is fantastic.
Absolutely my thoughts exactly!
Miscast is a crafsfan confirmed, love it
Did I just see STIKFAS in the title of a video!?!?! One of the absolute best action figures EVER!!!
I got into these years ago when the dragons and ninjas came out. They are a dream to customize
I have been hunting Stikfas for months. I think that this is absolutely awesome !! I have the Master Assassin Stikfa that I punched out but then I have the Samurai that I haven't punched out. If you look at prices right now it's crazy.
The most underrated posable action figure that ever entered the toy market.
I would make a mold so I could have an infinite supply of them, but I don't really do that
"According to this mess right here... it's cured." I adore the wit in your speaking
Here's a tip when using a popsicle stick for your stirring device: The curved end prevents you from getting into sharp corners of a mixing cup. Use a pair of side cutters to square off the end so you can get into the corners.
The problem with Stickfas was the inconsistencies in the plastic at the time and imperfections in some of the designs in later sets.
As someone that owned Stickfas and watches both channels from this collaboration, this put a smile on my face. ^_^
I’ve never heard of a squish mold… now this looks like it could be really dang cool to try
I love love LOVE your content. HOWEVER, I about lost my mind when you took off your messy gloves and you had a second pair of gloves on under them... That was hilarious!
I thought for a second I was going to going to see the real you... but BAM NO! "Back up gloves!" HILARIOUS!
Thank you for creating great content, you are amazing!!!
I'm currently working on a very high stress senior graphic design project. Your videos are keeping me going. Every time you upload I'm reminded that I'm supposed to be having fun when I create and its put me back into the right headspace. Thank you.
It's not nice to stress out your seniors like that bud.
Every time this man shows up I feel so comforted and welcomed and
encouraged to do something. He definitely has a Bob Ross style.
CrafsMan thank you so much for these great vidos. They are so cool and
I love each and every one I can watch.
I gotta go digging through my storage boxes to see if I can find my Stikfas from way back in 2001/2002
make a video and 3d print it.
Yyyyes release stls
Seeing the brittle version break made me so sad to think of some poor kid out there getting a broken toy. I'm glad you and Robert could fix it up better than brand new!
Mr. SteadyCraftin, this was a beautiful video.
Crafsman, you really bring a lot of light into the world.
Ah, that's exactly what I needed.
I felt a little down today, thank you for uploading a video Crafsman.
Same :,)
LOL!!!!! 9:46 After watching crafsman for years that was *HILARIOUS!!!!!!* LOL!!!!!! The way how he said it was hilarious. I wasn't expecting it! I was crying in laughter! Oh man such a fun, educational, and inspirational crafsman is.
Haha. Wow. Blast from the past. I remember the old Stikfas forums and all the cool creations we came up with. Still have my parts box with old projects.
This is awesome for many reasons!
1. I’m loving the collab with my other favorite crafter Robert Tolone.
2. I LOVED stikfas as a kid and they got me into action figure customization.
3. I’m working on recreating a 1/12 scale action figure right now and this is super helpful!
You have awakened my creativity, CrafsMan, I can't wait to get to creating and making again. Thank you so much!
This was great!! When you said the Kool-Aid man was going to come busting through your wall, I really did laugh out loud🐝🤗❤️
I love Roberts channel. Such great work. Thanks for collaborating.
How can a video be so funny, compelling, elegant, silly, precise, and heartfelt at the same time?
When it’s a Crafsman video, that’s how!
When my two favorite RUclipsrs team up, it's gonna be a great day!
It's so difficult for me to be genuinely happy these days but your videos never fail to make me smile, Crafsman. You're truly a treasure.
Crafsman, you are hilarious, and so inventive and interesting. I have never come across any other RUclipsr who I enjoy watching as much as you. Thank you for the videos. You're the best Crafsman!
Yes I'm happy to see you collaborating with Mr Tolone 🔥❤️
Yessssss the team up we all wanted!!!! Crafsman and Robert together is potential asmr / education overload.
Ps I loved stikfas and I’m laughing out loud literally at the “happy birthday that’s for you right there” lol
An excellent collaboration, CrafsMan! We all know that you’re not lazy; you’re clever to send this dilemma to a molding & casting expert, like Robert Tolone. And now, we all learned some 100% awesome stuff from both you and Robert.👏🤩
Crafsman, I love the rapid cut effect you did for snipping the sprue, like Gio San Pedro. I know that's a ton of work, but I want you to know I see and appreciate it.
I love just hearin' Mrs. CrafsMan in the back being concerned about all that bubble wrap, lmao. You married a keeper.
Great collab between two great teachers!
Robert has been one of the best channels I've ever binged since you recommend him. I can only wish I could be as wise as him in something so specific since I like too many things to be a master in anything :P
The farting glove is back!!! I had no idea how much I missed the farting glove until its triumphant retun in this episode. Thank you farting glove we all appreciate your comedy stylings and your important contribution to The CrafsMan show. I realy enjoyed your latest video CrafsMan. As a fellow crafter I know how important it is to constantly learn new and usful things as I continue on my creative path. Thank you for teaching me and all your fans and supporters so much about life, crafting, and sharing what you love.
So rad!! You and Robert will become the Hall and Oats of the craft world!
I recently looked into buying these again after all these years and finding this video made me happy
That bit of packing up the Stikfas gave me a chuckle. I love your videos! I want to try some of your projects; namely these with injection molds.
Props to Christopher, man ole man, and to Robert, for working with this fine mind.
I know nothing about resin, molds, etc. I just listen to your voice, it's very soothing.Thank you for you video.
Great job on the collab guys. I think you crafters can work out a crafting network for your shows. Spread the love.
I found my Stikfas figure just the other day while cleaning. I used it for a stop-motion video when I was taking video production classes. Literally holding it, well playing with it, while watching this episode. BTW loved the packaging sequence!
I found Stikfas the same way at a Toys R' Us back in 2004. I made some customs out of them and made a stop-motion movie as my first film project. Also, working on these is why I wear a face shield when using my Dremel. Got half a cutoff wheel stuck in my forehead.
Stikfas is a great line. I remember discovering them through an ad in ToyFare magazine. You could only order them online from Singapore and they only had the basic black soldier.
When Hasbro bought them up or got the license, then came all the wacky characters and colors.
You are the first youtuber that makes me excited when watching your vids. Keep up the fun crafs!
That is 100% satisfying. Thanks Crafsman and Robert.
I have so many fond memories of stikfas and the communities that sprang up around them. Anyone else remember the Asylum or Katoots boards back in the day?
I keep trying to buy out folks lots on eBay but always end up outbid 😂
I love craftsmama going off about the bubble wrap haha. Also thanks for introducing me to Robert!
Ugh! The unintentional snapping physically hurt! Bad childhood memories resurfaced!
Beautiful collaboration of my favorite two RUclips channels!. I love both you guys, thanks for doing what you all do!
This video and some tetrahydrocannabinol just saved my mental health for the afternoon.
I would have been on my way to a panic attack if I hadn't taken a moment to chill and found this notification.
Much love and gratitude, for everything you do for this community. You are gift. 🤗💖🙏
Thanks for the belly laughs Crafsman! 💕
CrafsMan is the reason I have so much respect for toy makers. ^^
I haven't thought about Stikfas in so so long. I had one of these so long ago when I thought I would use it for stop motion animation with Stop Motion Pro. As a kid at the time mostly it just got lost in my room, fell apart, and eventually got thrown out. (I had the boxed one which held up very well). Thanks for this short of nostalgia.
Idk why but every time I hear "Ello an welcom to de CrefMen Sho, mah nam is yo ho, TheCreeeefMeeeen!" I smile. You bring me inner peace, CrafsMan.
Cool! Fun seeing it remade with the sprue and all
If Robert dont know it about molding and casting resin, then its not worth knowing. Such a wealth of knowledge
Like super easy Gunpla. Love it. I like clipping them from the runners, cleaning them and snapping together. Reminds me that I have to finish one tonight.
Stikfas look really cool… good idea! Though abit expensive on eBay… Robert is so great… I don’t like the word expert but he is one in the true sense
"Hapeh birfday, thas for you right thur"
I f**king lost it! lol
It's amazing when two geniuses cooperate!
Steady keeps saying that he might be wrong but Steady is never wrong. NEVER!
Jesus man, i forgot that i really really wanted one of these when i was younger. Thanks for the Nostalgia hit.
Love the vid crafsman! As always the lighting is on point
Crafman...Thank you so much for bringing joy into the world through your magnificent vidows. You are a gift from the Good Lord.
I like to think that RUclips took away the Dislike button because it was no longer a necessary feature for specifically the Crafsman's channel.
(I love Stikfas, but struggled with that same brittleness! This is awesome!)
What's INSANE was, last week I was trying to remember this toyline that a friend was sent by Hasbro as a kid as part of market research, it never did too well and I couldn't remember anything about it- until ay 7:29 in this video a XEVOS package appears, and it turns out it's licensed to use the Stikfa system, kind of like Glyos! Crazy coincidence!
I think there's someone who clicks the Dislike button just to make sure it works...
Amen, also I love your channel too.
@@CharacterDesignForge I had a few Xevos, and didn't know that. They were pretty sturdy compared to what I'm seeing of the stikfas.
:D Super appreciate each one of y'all! Brookes, I was excited for a second thinking RUclips had done away with the dislike button! :D
Xevos are definitely of a better quality plastic. When assembling a set, the plastic felt sturdy and quality, like putting together a LEGO Bionicle or something... where you just KNOW it's not gonna snap apart. :)
That red samurai figure was rare and expensive, even back then!
I've been looking up how to do this specific thing for like 4 months. Thank you for this
"That's too much bubble wrap..." - Says the sweetest sounding lady ever
Absolutely incredible. That worked so well.
Great video man!! I love the Collab, I've been watching Robert since you introduced him to me. Good stuff!!
" Happy Birthday! That's for you right thar!"
I love it when my favorite youtubers work together! :D
Look at all those cool figures!! Oh, and i will say. People with skin allergies, be double double careful with resin! Learned that one the hard way last week, had a real bad reaction haha.
Hey Crafsman, any plans for doing a video on getting fine details when using Super Sculpey for things like TTRPG miniatures? Fingers and finer details elude me.
Thank you , I was so down today and your video brought me back up!!!!
When 2 of your favorite RUclips world’s collide,
you know it’s gonna be
Sumpin special!
hUgz, Lee
I cant believe you also own Stickfas and even Xevoz too! I thought I was the only one who remembered and still collected them :O! I wish someone would revive both lines of toy.
this is absolutely cool....thanks for sharing this!
Nice cross over! I love both you guys. I was thinking i bet we could 3d print a set of these. Would take some creative 3d modeling though to make a custom one.
You embodied the reasons I loved and hated Stikfas in the first 4 minutes.
Easy to assemble, easy to break.
What I learned is that some were produced by two different companies, meaning they have two different qualities.
For a couple of years, Hasbro had the license to produce Stikfas.
They also produced a short-lived action figure series based on them called Xevoz.
Xevoz were called up to a 6-inch scale, and were incompatible for Stikfas.
Stikfas did have future plans for the action figure line, new molds and bigger figures, as well as getting the rights to produce Evangelion-based kits, but alas, the creator got involved in a sex scandal and all of his plans have gone nowhere.
I didn’t expect the time travel. But I did time travel. Back to 2004. Having a tackle box full of stikfas weapons, a mavis digital camera that used 3.1” floppies, and a desire to photograph a stikfas in any small environment you can think of. And don’t forget your clear nail polish so you can “re-bulk” your stikfas ball joints. Good times.
This is a fantastic cross over!!! Thanks for sharing all this great information
I loved these and still have a bunch of them on my shelf. I would have killed for the store display one back when they came out. Such a great get.
Amazed to see Stiks on your channel. I was very into them and an active part of the customization group. I even have my designs and name on the boxes of some of the later releases..
The asylum!
@@machineman6498 Yeah, a nice bunch.
The CrafsMan is triumphant!
Early 2000s I had a bunch of awesome Stickfas especially the giant armed robot. These are great!
GONNA USE THIS TECHNIQUE NOW! I love you guys! I appreciate your work!
This video is an absolute gem 💎
Yes! Two of my favourite things!!!
You CAST a ball and socked Skitfas? Please CrafsMan, try a Xevoz. (Haven’t watched yet)
Edit: ok, that had some painful memories of cracking sockets. But the fact you were able to get a tough enough cast with resin is amazing. If you haven’t sent him on his way, rip open that Razor Claw for a little play time. That one holds up well. Thank you for making this!
Two great tastes that go great together! Love you both!
That is a brilliant video! I appreciate the skill and experience you put into this presentation. It's exciting to see you collaborate with Robert Tolone because I've been a fan of both of you ages. There's so much to learn from this, thankyou!
Thanks Crafsman, I love your videos.
Wow, Crafsman! I loved seeing your and Robert Tolone team up like this. I sure would like to see more of you two doing some more of this teamwork stuff. Also, how difficult would it be to make your own version of these characters using the same ball & socket connectors from STIKFAS?
Thank you for dropping this video exactly on time for my lunch. You're the best, Crafsman!
I died at crafmomma's reaction to the bubble wrap🤣🤣🤣
no matter how bad my day, craftsman always makes it brighter :)
There’s never Too Much bubble wrap!!!! 😂
Awesome video Crafsman!
Love the Kool Aid Man comment! Ohh Yeah!!!
It's a great day when i get to watch two of my favourites back to back!!! I like those figures, perfect for some stop motion action 👍
love this collaboration!!
