I would like to fix that hole with some epoxy resin and fiberglass stuff that I work with very often. But the problem is that I am in Hungary and I can't travel because of the massive virus problems.

[@andrasszabo7386]

And inside the motor I don't spray WD40. Instead, I spray Weldtite TF2 teflon spray that I buy at our bicycle shop.

I'm impressed with how well Dougal turned out given the state he was in at the beginning!

[@Mymatevince]

Thanks, and I'm impressed with Jabba the Muppet, it looks great. Looking forward to going through your previous vids 👍👍👍

[@LegitMan335]

Dougal!! *my mom hated that movie when I was a kid*

[@saturnuria1217]

Late night Vince. Between Dougal’s flashing yellow eyes, the creepy jukepet music and your outro, I’m terrified to go to sleep. Definitely putting both feet inside the covers tonight.

[@Mymatevince]

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣

Dougal just nombing on Coco Pops while jamming with juke box tunes

[@MrFruitflan]

I'm amazed there is no circuit board given the amount Dougal does, really good!!

[@TardisMarch]

I think the Yellow colour paint you used on Dougal worked so well Vince, I honestly wouldn’t tell, great job buddy 👍🏻

[@TomMannCenturia]

That Dougal turned out great, love you put so much effort into making him presentable again. Fantastic.

[@littleloner1159]

You know, ive been havin a shit day and I found your videos to be super calming Ive watched all the toy repairs bc theyre my favorite. And now i look and youve just uploaded a new one. You couldn't have released this at a better time and thank you so much for making these.

[@Mymatevince]

Thank you, I'm glad they help 👍

[@cass276]

Hi Vince When i was a kid in the 60s i had a toy train ( the American western type) that worked the same way as Dougal. As i understand it when the toy hits something, the two wheels underneath work like a differential on a car, and when resistance is met drive swops over from one wheel to the other, and as the wheels can spin on an axis the toy takes off in a different, random direction including reverse. My train had flashing lights in the front and cab and was probably made by the same company. Ohh the memories!...i still remember me and my dad (long since passed) playing with that train on the rug on Christmas morning. Cheers! Chris

[@Mymatevince]

Thanks Chris 👍

Hi. I`m from Japan. I had Jukepet when I was kid and loved it. 3 Years ago I found it on ebay and now I have 4 of them. I needed to fix them as you did on this video. But I`ve never open motor. That was something new information. Thank you.

[@Timothycan]

I have a 'Laughing Bag' toy, a bag with a clown's face on it, and when you press a button it laughs for a few seconds. In the bag is a little mini record-player, almost identical inside to your Jukebox toy, except there is only one record (of the laughing) which is permanently glued in. The mechanism is SO similar that I'm sure it was made by the same company as your toy.

[@MichaelBritt23]

Vince! Don't sell yourself short! The Dougal fix was brilliant. Using body filler and painting it almost the exact color really looked better than I thought it could be. I say go back and paint a little more around the dog to make it even more realistic.

[@Mymatevince]

Cheers Michael 👍

[@marcdowell6658]

The jukebox song at the end. I think is " Old Suzanna", don't you cry for me. I come from Alabama, with a bango on my knee. I could be wrong. Like the vidy, stay safe and happy !!

[@etiennevanharen3893]

Hahaha great video, those old toys are just such clever mixes of mechanics and simple electronics. Love it.

[@Mymatevince]

Cheers Etienne 👍

[@francispalmer9737]

That was great Vince I love watching these old toy repairs. Thank you.

[@willproctor7301]

Dougal looks great, that's a really good repair Vince. I love his movement too, toys that do this these days have microcontrollers and all the extra gubbins. This shows how simple good engineering can be.

[@Retro_andy_1977]

By heck Vince what a transformation on dougel!zebedee would be bouncing with appreciation!

[@JonPadfield]

The ending made me crack up so much I almost spilled my tea!! Nice one Vince.

[@Mymatevince]

Haha, cheers Jon 👍

[@StezStixFix]

That Jukepet is definitely going to give me nightmares. And the Dougal was all cute and cuddly until you made him satanic at the end. All you need to do now is make the Coco Pop badge play music from The Exorcist, and you're on to a hat-trick! Apart from that, awesome job, as always! 😉

[@Mymatevince]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I think the Coco Pops monkey had a little 666 on his head!!!

[@dr_ned_flanders]

Nice fix Vince. For something that was so battered and damaged you did a great job.

[@xen00x]

I love these old toys and the simplicity of this stuff!

[@Mymatevince]

I agree, it is nice to be able to understand the workings without looking at 10 chips! 👍

[@karlfoley]

Imagine if you were a kid in the 60's and that toy came at you in the dark!

[@Lynxyss]

That is probably why it looked like it did.

[@jamiefors5062]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@tqft]

Omg- that coco pops badge! NOSTALGIA right there! I think I still have mine in the loft. Love hearing that music again

[@Floyd1138]

I remember getting a Dougal birthday cake in about 1980ish, havent seen Dougal since then, Thanks for the memories

[@TomMannCenturia]

Hehe, I got a Dougal cake around that era too, wonder if it was in a magazine or TV cooking show or something. I loved it.

[@gorky_vk]

That Dougal bodywork was perfect, I saw cars with more visible repairs before.

[@Mymatevince]

🤣🤣🤣 Hahaha, thank you 👍

[@willcope4542]

Haha great stuff 😂 Dougal is both adorable and menacing at the same time, relentless in his pursuit of your soul!! Tip for the paint, mix a touch of white into the yellow paint to lighten the colour, play around till you got a good colour match 👍

[@Gassit]

3 out of 3 fixed, well done Vince. I can never think of The Magic Roundabout without remembering the Jasper Carrott sketch of it :D

[@execation]

YASSS! This is what I love to see! A LONG VIDEO REPAIRING OLD TOYS! Love it Vince

[@martinda7446]

Ha, ha, ha, ha Dougal...'The toy that keeps on giving'. I was laughing for ages at that for some strange reason. Even if sometimes we shout at you 😸 ... Everything you touch is golden. Always amazed. Just love this channel.

[@Mymatevince]

🤣🤣 Hahahaha, cheers Martin 👍

[@watercreator]

Both the Jukepet and the dog gave me some creepy vibes... The dog kept wanting to leave the house and the jukebox sounds like something from a horror movie.

[@GuitarmanFlanagan]

The doggie moves along the grooves in the floor with his thin wheels...thats why he reverses without hitting an obstacle...good job on the repair ! ...i should have watched to the end...

[@Haverr1]

i enjoyed watching you repairing cursed items from the past

[@instahawk8422]

I like these random fix videos it’s fun seeing all the different kinds of stuff

[@Nopper23]

The coin bank really sounds like it comes directly from a horror movie with crazy puppets or demons 🤣

[@2009numan]

that song the Jukepet was playing in the video was called Oh Susanna Vince

[@TheREALDocRabbit]

I agree, totally is Oh Susanna.. True southerner here, and instantly recognized it.

[@DanBird]

Interesting video, good to see how things from the past work especially the last one.

[@fouroakfarm]

[@NOWThatsRichy]

Love the Dougal fix, he is surprisingly agile for such a simple mechanism! Back in the late 70's (about the same era as this toy) I had a toy car which did similar manoeuvers, I think it was called 'Bump & Go'.

[@BlytheWorld1972]

Dougal Fix was epic!!!!

[@Tig3rj]

OMG I said the same thing on the Juke Box..."Sounds like something that be in a horror film!"...Hahaha!! Should of played the Juke creepiest record with the dogs eyes at the end hehehe

[@lamtatyan]

Congratulations for saving another vintage, Vince!

[@DamdamF]

In the French version, Dougal is called Pollux and has a strong British accent. Has he got a French accent in the British version? 😂

[@retrotechguardian4393]

I love your enthusiasm for what you do, great video. Dougal is my favourite.

[@geoffquickfall8424]

Love your videos, just a note: WD 40 is a protectant (anti rust). The lubricant (volatile) will evaporate leaving a coating behind to prevent rust. It only lubricates temporarily. So using on gears, pivots and contacts will actually cause everything to bind up later or not conduct electricity. Cheers, Geoff

[@Mymatevince]

Cheers Geoff 👍

[@littleloner1159]

I remember stumbling about a 4min clip from my magic roundabout one day and i absolutely love it.

[@fdfmad]

This repair was really astonishing, vince!!

[@kpodbot1]

Ah the music on the juke box at the end was the yellow rose of texas not scary lol

Dougall come out really well. I just about watched magic roundabout as kid as born 1993 i can remember the tune quite well.

[@DEmma1972]

great job on Dougal. Florence will be so happy

[@Mymatevince]

[@Nopper23]

My sister had a puppet with such little records mid 90s. Cant remember if it really worked so. I think she had the wrong puppet. The different brands had different Systems and different record sizes I think.

[@MyklBlue69]

Dougal looks amazing! U could mix a tiny bit of white to lighten that paint or paint the entire thing. It wouldn't be terrible! He looks good as is though too. 👍

[@sparkstron73]

Very good repair on the dougal and the jukebox, subbed. Love these type of vids.

[@mrbussey]

Loved it! I find these way more interesting!! The JukePet is amazing! I would have loved it as a child! I find it odd they would play "Oh! Susanna" on a British toy! Is that even known there?! What other songs did it have??

[@Mymatevince]

Cheers Jim👍 JukePet, what a name 🤣🤣 The other songs are 'Turkey in the straw', 'Cachito' and 'Wheels'

[@andycooper4230]

Engineering back in them days was brill seems what tech was about I bet the person that designed the money box was a top notch back then three great fixes bud

[@chrisa6120]

Vince try adding baking soda to super glue to make an instant dry cement. Just use superglue like normal then while holding the parts together sprinkle some baking soda over it to have it dry an harden instantly. You can also slowly build up missing parts/ holes. Best part is its sand able after about 1 minute. I have used this on serval plastics an it always works. Even on broken car dash panel clips.

[@Mymatevince]

Cheers Chris 👍

[@michaelthomas3646]

Oh Susanna is the song on the Jukebox toy at the end of the video, not sure what the other could have been maybe ghostbusters or something.

[@SD1fruitbat]

I think the first song might be 'Wheels'.

[@nigelmorgans]

Holy crap vince you are man I love your videos your way of showing your fixing is top class keep the great content coming regards nigel from plymouth uk

You could probably slow the record down a bit. It old Susanna but it sounds pretty good. Great video.

[@TheRDDJ]

Good job on Dougal! Maybe you can give the nose and face a coat of clear varnish to protect the paint from dings?

Love the dog fix! But al this toys wouldn't be missplaced in a horror move! Thank you!

Great job on the Dougal Vince 😊

[@TheSkaldenmettrunk]

Very interesting stuff. At least internally. I like how the doogle turned out. The Coin Machine is to noisy in my opinion. Ooh Coco Pops we have in switzerland as well.

[@Parknest]

The song playing on the Jukepet at 43:17 is "Camptown Races". It does sound a bit creepy though.

[@colin1729]

Nice one Vince. Before transistor logic you would get what was called relay logic. I suppose these and other toys could be using switch logic?? Any way. Nice one Vince.

[@haitchgee8502]

When the jukepet started playing “music” - genuinely terrifying!!😆

[@nickolaswilcox425]

i have a small lcd game that just didnt want to work right until i tore it down entirely and went to town cleaning it, so yeah, those cheap preinstalled button cells can really leave a trace edit: ive got the fisherprice music box turntable that works off the same idea as that bank and its shocking how loud they managed to make them and how loud they continue to be even as the plastic ages and becomes brittle, to clean the cone for the music box it needs to be pulled out of a glued position and it makes its age and fragility known while doing so, but yeah speed control on some of the older toys was just a bit lax/nonexistent so they sounded strange

[@Sharklops]

So is the jukebox basically using a strain gauge as a speed controller?

[@mondodaftasabrush]

Dougal lives to scamper again. tasteful repair well done That Jukepet sounds like the old ice cream van chimes when I was a kid

[@christopherperry8693]

Quick Tip: Next time you fill with body filler, put tape on the outside to cover the hole and fill from the inside. Save you loads of time and gives a better finish.

[@TheEPROM9]

The Jukebox sounds like something out of a horror moive, I love it.

[@frazer26]

I had loads of those badges, had the coco pops, the bee from honey nut loops, the space man from ricicles, think Tony the Tiger. You had to collect vouchers from variety packs

Dougal was a triumph. body work looked fine...cheers.

[@TheSlysterII]

What great toys! Thanks for this video Vince!

[@MrJDNJ]

The main issue with the electric motors is usually dried grease on the shaft/bearing. IPA clean re-apply grease should fix. I recently had to apply lithium grease to a cd tray rails. I cut a few tiny pieces of sponge into cubes and used tweezers to pick up the pieces to swab the grease coating around like a mini-applicator. I thought it worked out well and really coated the surfaces optimally. It's the old "a little goes a long way."

[@Mymatevince]

Thanks for the tips!

We have Coco Pops in the US, but they were renamed Coco Krispies in the early 2000s.

[@DumahBrazorf]

Coco Pops also in Italy but I don't remember the satanic badge.

[@laszlofyre845]

In the UK, back in maybe the 50's to early 60's, we got Coco pops, and they were around for a few years. Then they were re-named Co Krispies about 65 for some reason. They vanished off the market some time later, to re appear (in the 80's IIRC) as Coco Pops again. When the Coco Krispies name appeared here, they had a free giveaway in them of plastic locomotive models, mostly I think of US prototypes- did you get them over there too? Some were really nice models, both steam and diesels.
