I've been collecting the 3.75 GI Joe since 1984. I've gotten really good at fixing them and swapping out parts and dismantling them and putting them back together and cleaning them

I saw your other recent video on your gijoe collection and I kept wondering how they were all still standing. Thank you for the video! Now I know…

Great tips there Micheal, I used to use a small rubber band, elastic band, double it over couple times,for a tight fit if i broken the o ring, have great weekend 😊

Nice touch with the hairdryer on the gold plastic, never used that myself :) I did an o-ring change video for my own channel but it was just a simple replacement and not including T-hook which is a bit more stressful with those leg screws and knee-posts.

That C clip in the vehicle seems Unnecessary. Glad you were able to fix the figure
@MichaelMercy6 ай бұрын
The vehicle has an elevated mode so it's probably to hold the figure in place when it rises up.

Admittedly I haven't seen the o-ring replacement vid. Michael what are your views of the #8, #9 vs #41 o-ring?

The great thing about old joes is that even though they break, they are easily fixable.

And usually fun to do as well.

sure anyone can swap in a fresh o-ring but it takes 40 years to develop a loose joe
