Found An Action Figure Driver For The ROCHobby 1/6-Scale MB Scaler RC Truck! - Holmes Hobbies

Recently John gave you an overview of the ROCHobby MB Scaler, this is one of those rigs that just grabbed his attention and lured him into buying two of them. One for the shelf and one to run. It was a bit clunky on the course, but the fun factor was there. To bump up the fun factor some more, John roamed the interwebs looking for the right driver to place in his MB rig. After scouring the webs, he found a GI Joe service man figure. The suggested age range for the figure is ages 5 and up so John physically qualifies to have it. This video is about just having fun, chatting and eventually stuffing the action figure into his MB. This is RC entertainment at its finest folks!

[@BOBH1953]

Hi John, I've been in and out of the rc hobby for at least 20 yrs. and I'm 67 still going strong.

[@beyond1957]

So entertaining in these dark times. I shall keep watching, thank you

[@PhoenixRCCrawler]

I was a dirty poor kid. I couldn’t go to Toys r Us. But I could sneak into K Bee toys. Lol. 👍🏽🐒🇺🇸

[@haroldhargrave6503]

I am 65 and watch you all the time. I remember when GI Joe first came out.

[@adamb7426]

[@slysplasteringsly1012]

[@minnoweyesrc30]

Edits on point!!!

[@LRCR]

Enjoyed this Video with so many laughs as you test fit "US" ✌🤠👍Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 👍😎👍 AOAH =Association of Addicted Hobbiest

[@bucksrcworld8119]

another classic for the ages John, and i def would use one of these in my scale rc, now if its a 1960's gi joe that is a different story....

[@walttrowbridge7687]

John, you're living the childhood I never had when I grew up in the 90s 😅 Love it!!

[@sootsscalepainting4429]

OMG. Great video

[@vipxj1]

Hey I'm 53, love your vids and humour

[@daviddillon6794]

I did the same. A GI Joe in 1/6 jeep rock crawler. Servo driven steering wheel. Fastened "driver" into the seat in such a way that he could rock slightly side to side while driving down the trail. One hand on shifter. Good stuff.

[@glennjthompson332]

Nice unboxing of GI -Joe, I would have Steve McQueen or George c. Scott has general Patton's motorcade adventure, some are classic stuff, or RAMBO comic Sargent ROCK.😲👍😏🤔 or make a short film movie.🧙

[@charlespruitt6645]

I took the driver seat off of mine and my 12 inch figure fit much better 👍🏼

[@SwampersRC]

I'm not a collector so I would totally open it! You'll have to undress him to find out what's up with the lump in his but! I have some cheap 1/6 scale figures (less than $20) but the heads are more than the figures! I think my Clint Eastwood head was $40 and the clothes were around $40(including shoes,socks and underwear!

[@tomandrews5392]

Life is short ....enjoy it as long as your breathing...

[@jhawk1985]

This was funny af 🤣

[@LowGainElectronics]

The after effects are amazing

[@ryancampbell6657]

[@_carefulcole_4517]

We had m4's in the navy.

[@robh9577]

"Collectable Action Figures"

[@michaelwarner5721]

Too funny dude..

[@JoelTGM]

Imaging holding onto that action figure in it's original packaging for over twenty years just to sell for 35 dollars on Amazon.

[@seth8005]

You should get one for displaying, one nib, one for spare, that's the correct amount a true collector must do !!!

[@LowGainElectronics]

I remember KB Toys hahaha

[@Cannabis_Connoisseur]

What an awesome video. Lol.

[@rileykairc]

I grew up in the 70s and 80s I had action man wish I kept them for my roc hobby willes jeep they are expensive

[@andyrichey1192]

Super funny John, but I really love the flames shooting out of the barrel, that was super cool .

[@notice_fpv]

Hey, John... How ya set up in the Best Friend department? I think you'd be a blast to hang out with! LOL!

[@hemistormrc]

Laughing so hard here! The gun firing 😂🤣🤣

[@paulschryer9571]

I remember both John...Kaybee Toys & of course, Toys 'R' Us !! -Thankyou for reminding me of my early-years ! 🙂 Please, when you can, make more videos ! 📽️ 👍 🤣 👋 - You are so entertaining !! So I just picked-up my first driver figure ! Looks a little bit like he's from da movie "The Hills Have Eyes" He is a little on the short or small side, at [ 5 1/2" ] (or) a.k.a. 5'6" (in my scale terms). He is wearing a black & silver outfit, "clothing"...and has a mullet !! ....LoL !!! -But, do not under-estimate this driver, he has a compact UZI Machine Gun & an AR-15 semi-auto rifle with a grenade-launcher underneath !! Also looks like he is having a bad day ! - (He's permanently frowning) !! 🏴‍☠️ MR. MULLET SAYS... ....." ARRR....MATEY, GET OFF THE ROAD !! " 🏴‍☠️ 😂 - He's ready to Rock 'n' Roll !! 🇺🇸 -what's in your arsenal ??...!! LoL ! -Thanx again John ! 👍 -Have a great day. 😀

[@jdsrcs8061]

Hahahahahahaha that was AWESOME!!!!

[@RCPropaganda]

I love figs. I collect a lot of figs and always switch them out for drivers. The hasbro gi joe classified series is great. 6 inch figs are perfect.

[@mikej8832]

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ poor action figure... Was so happier in the package 😂

[@notice_fpv]

Turns out, his entire BODY is opposable! Either that, or it's like the scene from iron Man where the test pilot of the Hammer suit is broken in half at the waist while being filmed.

[@italianstln43]

Like smelling a bad fart and going in for seconds just to make sure lol

[@indyjones3287]

ALOL, the fire was awesome!

[@NCMATT]

K. B was were I got my WILD THING.

[@therealHUSA]

after a few smells it seemed you kinda liked it haha xD you don't want but you have to 😂

[@Paul-wz1tm]

Polluted Chinese air. Lol

[@CollectorsHQ]

John, is the driver a 12 inch action figure? I’m curious what best scale action figure to use on 1/6 scale vehicle or even 1/8 1/10 scale. Thank you.

[@ferp420]

hows the size compair to the nylint heep 1/6

[@vinceguerra1310]

So this keep can be a class 1 from the box? From uk😊

[@user-ed2kt7qj1r]

Absolutely cracked up your videos are informative and funny John you made my day I was out crawling today getting complaints from rc hatin stuck up yuppies that don't know how to have fun, so my rig somehow threw some dirt one their precious shoes opppsss lol

[@eeezymoney]

First I was like man, I didnt realize how cool Timothy Olyphant was, then I was like, where the hell is Scooby?

[@PhilBender612]

Cool. Gonna have to paint the Jeep Grey now, he's in the Navy. Cant have him drive army jeep.

[@nukedathlonman]

No name - you should give him a name - Lt. Dan? Got a promotion I suppose.... And perhaps Lt. Dan is a too well known Hollywood name.... hmmm.... Private Maxwell? :-)

[@keithmclean3627]

Great stuff. Naval boarding party crews have all kinds of weapons, including m4's and shotguns. All correct there. (Apart from the smell?)

[@jaybenson2247]

Hasbro bought Kenner in the early 90’s. Most of the licenses like GI Joe & Star Was kept the Kenner branding. You’ll even see Kenner branding on the Star Wars Vintage Collection today.

[@indyjones3287]

His name: Private Roc

[@NCMOUNTAINSbackyardRC]

💯👍👍

[@bkr_zombie7920]

Oh me Holmes when will the puller pro bearings be back in stock been waiting two months to use my motor

[@indyjones3287]

I'm cringing at the sight of you sliding your finger along that sharp plastic!!! AHHHH!

[@Iammasterkush]

Im looking at getting one of your trailmaster 27t for my trx4 sport

[@eijneB06]

John just a wee question, what size of brushes do i need for the tourqemaster pro 27T

[@channotpoling20]

Hey john, I have a question that has nothing to do with the action figure. When using a bec auxiliary adapter, which channel should I plug it into? I’m having trouble getting things to work (light bar). Thanks for any info.

[@charleslogsdon3835]

I would definitely cringe while opening it, but wouldnt hesitate to use it to beef up a scale build either.

[@sabresswords]

Rotflmfao. Best rc video of all time

[@mikep4156]

How is USA today?

[@MrLunithy]

Eddie Murphy's GiJo Got Stuck........ does that show how old I am.....

[@ucitymetalhead]

He needs more foot room probably that's always been my problem with figures in cars.

[@tomandrews5392]

Don't buy crap to look at..buy , destroy....cut off at the knees ..lol

[@JoelTGM]

The 8 down votes had to mop the deck

[@zonegamma8197]

Ho the smell !!

[@fabianrengelink2662]

Do you smell on new tyres for your rigs? 😉🚗💨💨

[@LargeeeScaleLife]

Kb Was at the mall so it was more accessible. However Toys “R” Us was cooler because they had bad ass RC cars. And yeah I would totally buy two of them if it was the right one. Now if it was an original transformer no way I would open it

[@augustinmartinez8925]

Ah I am 15

[@peterthibault6533]

LMAO 🤣😂😅

[@Jeroen-Engelgeer]

You are a doll dude. Sorry, action figure.

[@xjmojo]

I'm 34 so ha lol

[@sophie28ize]

Shouldn't of smelled that!! Then smelled it 5 more times and counting,

[@nevermore9155]

I am not a Dr. but, I think that lump on Tyrone's, backside may be a really bad case of hemorrhoids. Oh snap he is a sailor Yep its hemorrhoids. For the strangest reasons sailors especially the ones that work or are in submarines for long periods of time get those. How strange so do male inmates. You might want to pay a visit to Dr. Who.

[@ozboy8144]

I have one of the GI Joe Collectibles in the same Jeep😁 but I have a Female helicopter pilot

[@307_Scoot]

lol lol lol

[@hobbyavenue6740]

no one cares about 90s Joes. the 60s army and early 70s Adventure team is where its at. and in 2003 they made reproductions of the originals which are also expensive now but just as great in my opinion :) I've been wanting one of these rochobby ww2 jeeps but i haven't bit then bullet yet. have fun with him haha had a laugh at it. but honestly true Joe collectors don't overly care about 90s Joes

[@italianstln43]

How did u know my age lol I’m 44 and I open all mine so I can play with them

[@aussiefpv6780]

cracks open package "ooh, nice hiss"

[@jefflakso]

Toy R Us was to expensive and KB Tots had less selection. More of a Hobby city kid!

[@Mitchell.Samuels]

I sell toys(action figures ,model cars,etc.) on EBay.It's not price gouging if the buyers are willing to pay $100. And you could have bought a used loose figure instead of a sealed in package one.If you break that windshield by smacking it up and down I can sell you a replacement part 😛

[@slysplasteringsly1012]

He's that old . He has arthritis

[@rockboundrc7228]

Why do they all have guns? Dumbest question ever! They're military toys' duh!!

[@allmightygreat1892]

Dragon figures are more scale.

[@tayroyall]

Why do you have two of them

[@tayroyall]

You calling 5030 because mama and I clicked Gi Joe and I'm 11
