How to Give New Life to an Old Star Wars Toy

[@hunterkiller1440]

I love it whenever a creator reuse some old stuff and transform it into something so much more.

[@gojirazillasaurus6341]

I got the hundredth like!

[@jord9261]

I'm so doing this. My dad has this in his computer room since the phantom menace came out but it no longer moves, just makes noises. This looks sick!

[@williepirie5329]

A great way to take my mind off hospital stuff Thank you🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@bookon999]

My son was 5 when TPM came out and I got to watch it through his eyes, so I never really hated it as much as it honestly deserves. I (Santa) got him this for Christmas and he loved it. Just seeing this brings back memories.

[@Ga1act1x]

Looks beautiful! May I suggest an idea? A stormtrooper finding a clone helmet while in the snow. It will look sad

[@LightsNcrafts]

That's a great idea!

[@masterqui-gonjinn90]

Like a phase one helmet ?

[@LightsNcrafts]

@@masterqui-gonjinn90 I think he meant Ahsoka's Clone Trooper helmet.

[@Ga1act1x]

A phase 2! But I want to to look badly beat up

[@Ga1act1x]

I also want the trooper to hold the clone helmet and stare into the clone helmets “eyes”

[@KnarbMakes]

Those red lights really elevate the look of the model. Nice one!

[@joeshmoe9978]

BIG improvement!! 👍

[@pmedic523]

That was dope. Nicely done. The face repainting I think is what really sold it.

[@BPCustomCreations]

That's awesome! I remember this bank from back in the day! Those glowing filaments always bring the level of the project up to a million!

[@1Nolimited]

The small change you put make it amazing love it

[@tcemedic100]

Awesome build, love that you’ve made this more realistic. Also love the humor that you are incorporating in you builds. “Frosty ☃️😂🤣”.

[@phoule76]

Happy birthday!

[@jonathanboakes2660]

I had one of those as a kid. What a throwback. So cool to see you create something so amazing with it!!!

[@alicalderon1039]

If all your projects were as easy to do as maul’s wiring, we wouldn’t be able to appreciate you skills as much. Love the vids, keep doing you man.

[@irish3335]

Always impressed with your make something from nothing ability - so much better than the original! Thanks for sharing

[@restock_1731]

Making good turn into great!!! Such a simple little project, but it's still so badass, after all, it's Maul.

[@barryjack3025]

Well that’s a real improvement… the lighting does all the work. The face looks much better too. Great job.

[@ericangelucci7210]

That was fire your creativity is mesmerizing. I am so impressed just wow.

[@blackmarketoutpost]

Fantastic transformation you make it look so simple !!

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

With all these subtle, but important changes in his posture, Maul now looks so menacing and full of himself - just like in the movie! You did really great.

[@saffronjin9500]

got a genuine laugh out of me with int he first 20 seconds i instantly had to like, watched the whole thing. love this and how it turned out. wish i had one of my own now!

[@jenrichards8938]

It looks so much more epic! Nice job!!

[@galopagos395]

Great work as always. Nice to see old memorabilia turned into a beautiful display piece 👍

[@seanhobbs3624]

Your presentation is imaginative and realistic. You don’t need ideas from us. Keep doing your thing. You have the eye of a director.

[@dougcostello9064]

Very cool. Much better after your changes.

[@Craftlngo]

your work on this thing is so much, much better than the original!

[@Madjenta]

When I was a kid one of my classmates had this coin bank and I wand I was always so jealous, never thought I'd see that thing again tho

[@Og_Boomer_]

Omg it looks 100x better. Your creativity its out of this world man. Keep it up.

[@_thomas1031]

Oooohhh, this is a great video idea😄👏👏👏. Statue came out GREAT👌

[@mrlagged3765]

ok one thing that i love is that you make every model just perfect nice work!

[@TheHubajoob]

This just smacked me in the face with nostalgia, I'm not sure where it happened, but I have a distinct memory of seeing this thing swing back and forth along the waist while slapping his saber up and down hahaha

[@quattrorsq8558]

Amazing job!! Btw if u add some cloth on him it would like a piece from Sideshow! 😉

[@arronjones6985]

Wow! What a transformation! Sweet channel bro! 👌

[@jazzman782000]

I loved those banks. Wish I still had mine.

[@anthonyinabo2382]

Beautiful

[@mrwilliams4822]

Shoot, I still have this in original box. Current state is so cheesy, but I loved what you did with it. Kinda makes me want to take mine out of the box and do the same thing!

[@FrogbridgeEntertainment]

Those coin banks are great. If you have the Qui Gonn and Obi Wan ones you can connect them and they "fight" each other.

[@chrispears7749]

This looks so much better than at the beginning. Great job 👏😀

[@dresdenwarlock7978]

I HAD this in 1999. Kept it until my early twenties circa '07. He was meant to be part of a 3 piece Duel of the Fates coin bank collectors set, there was one with Qui-Gon and one with Obi and if you connect them together they would "fight"

[@carrie4910]

Massive improvement! Looks amazing.

[@justinbarnes6833]

Awesome job as always! Maul is my favorite character so it was awesome to see this bank get a face lift!

[@mrwest626]

Came out great. Would be awesome to see what you could do with the old Vader and Droids banks they had around that same time.

[@scardoesart]

ah, junk to treasure! It's amazing what you can do with a little love and time to make something worth having around ^_^

[@jamieleung709]

You could do a diorama of C3PO and R2D2 crashing down in tatooine with the escape pod

[@mistac5050]

Throwback to the hobby lobby imperial metal sheet that made it's debut in your video that started it all for me... Stormtrooper with realistic lasers! This was a really cool re-purpose and it came out great.

[@jasonshiers5771]

That looks so much better with the upgrades you made. Awesome stuff as always.

[@katiebellmichelle]

A piece that’s cool enough to be proud of now 😂🤩 it looks soooo much better good job

[@jarenalfred66]

Would be cool to see a spider version of this! Great video!

[@Sickzero]

After all your excursions to the wild west I was slightly sad..., all great pieces, but no lights... And now, OMG what a comeback! Still waiting for General Grievous, though 😉

[@jwhiddon69]

I had one of these. There was an Obi Wan bank, and a Qui Gon bank that attached on either side of him, and interacted with him. One of his blades would retract, and come out.

[@Theycallmekol]

Great job!

[@DoubleAvids]

I had this bank when I was a kid, but I wish it looked like that!

[@alpho_23]

I used to have one of these as a kid! I think I still have it somewhere, but it stopped working a long time ago. I also have one for Obi Wan and one for Qui-Gon too!

[@MrGoose-ic6vv]

Hey man I have an idea for you. I think It would be so cool if you expanded your wild west monster hunting world. My idea is that you could have some travelers who have stumbled on a giant beaver who was making his dam when they saw him. Remember that beavers were the size of bears in ancient times and this would be a great addition to your world!!! Please consider it and it would make my week if you did this.

[@nothingsurprisesmeanymore]

I'm not gonna lie I thought you were telling a beaver jk at first 😆

[@johnblack9885]

That looks awesome however I love the animatronics on my bank especially when you connect him with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan and it recreates the Duel of the Fates.

[@ameliamoreno9523]

It looks amazing! Would love to se you do more stuff with Maul, he’s my favourite!

[@TheStrangeAlchemist]

So much better :)

[@kenspriggs5687]

You really turned that ok toy into a realistic figure! Great job!

[@BeenThrDunThat]

Cool project, looks great!

[@RebelBaseBuilds]

So great, simple, effective!

[@andrewarmstrong5266]

Nice!!!! Always bugs me when star wars stuff comes with lightsabre's not to scale, but your finish on this is great

[@tortuegeniale3044]

Nice result 👍

[@jallomoth]

absolutely love seeing you work in this big scale ! would love to see you tackle some more statuettes like this :0 keep up the mind blowing work boylei !!

[@adriangarcia4180]

Bro like always love these builds! Yours vids help calm the stress of college midterms not gonna lie! So don’t stop hahahah🔥

[@blinddume3859]

Amazing work!! I love how you depict certain scenes. I would love to see one where kenobi is holding mail as he is finally defeated as shown in Star Wars Rebels. Such a powerful scene

[@millenniumf1138]

I'm lucky in that where I work, we throw out chunks of that metal sheet about every other week. I've got a small stockpile that I'm wanting to use to make a huge Imperial diorama someday.

[@FlokisModels]

Great job on modifying that old bank

[@modelermark172]

Well done! This has the look and feel of what a Darth Maul figure kit might have looked like if Aurora was still in business. (It even looks about 1/8th scale . . . .)

[@superguy7044]

I still have that coin bank, and the Obi and Qui Gon ones as well

[@TheFoxEssence]

Only thing I would have done different was weigh it down. And put that little switch on the back. Gorgeous piece. Well done!

[@austinhinton3944]

I knew someone who had something similar to this, it was a Darth Vader one. It could talk and would move when you added coins.

[@cuttocatto6050]

You always take my time with your videos.... And I love every minute of it!! Your work is the best

[@PossiblyJuan]

i love your videos and find so much joy and calm in them, especially in a boring class, this is scincerelly my favorite channel on youtube

[@ralfweber7562]

Man, that is awesome! You`re so creative, hats off!

[@hazeltinejuna9580]

This look sick..awesome

[@occamsrayzor]

Outstanding! Great work on the facial paint, too - it really makes a difference. As is very often the case, the sculpting on these toys is quite good, but they're let down by the production line paint methods.

[@markknight4687]

Awesome work 👍

[@mcpeteymcnustard7777]

Dude every video you put out is gold. Im in love with this channel lol

[@the_chomper]

on one of your next wild west model can you add a small motor that moves something? not sure what but just add some movement to it?

[@chrislambert238]

This looks great. You'll have to get the other 2 to make up the full set

[@ruudf89]

Heya! In love with the work! Also really into the LED's, could you do any detailed vids on the soldering? Don't have any experience, and gonna burn out all of them 🙃😅

[@theexplodingDarkrai]

That’s a massive improvement! It looks miles better!!

[@colinflood5453]

That base is perfect great job👍

[@plasticman2k]

That is insane. The amount of detail that went into this was remarkable.

[@atelier_AG]

So good! I had the same alarm as a kid, ridiculous but awesome. Amazing work!

[@NanchoForero81]

The Force is strong in this upgrade! 🤓👍🏽

[@badjer1983]

It's always good to go back and rework projects for upgrades or repurpose. Saving Planet Earth one project at a time!

[@Misha..K]

You made it epic 💜

[@davidsanders5883]

Man, you should do the Obi-Wan & Qui-Gon as well. The 3 pieces upgraded would be amazing!!!

[@Jayneflakes]

That is beautiful, the sabre looks fantastic.

[@williamd1732]

Improved the looks of this by far. Love the ideas you come up with. The Frosty joke made me laugh. Well done!

[@TEHNOOB916]

One of a kind artwork.

[@evanclarcq2108]

Where do you keep all your projects?

[@itsabughunt6310]

Beautiful!

[@pat7937]

Nice work, well done ! I always love a good repurposing....

[@petelawson3670]

That's great work! Maybe put the spider robot legs on him too.

[@chasedowney3358]

Starship troopers bugs vs marines please! Your content is amazing. Keep up the awesome work.

[@katmom49]

Much improved!

[@TheMoneypresident]

Grocery store fridges look on back walls. It's long and short holes exactly like star wars.

[@uncletatscreativeshack1702]

Amazing transformation!!

[@Paul-E0102]

Looks awesome but one thing I would have changed about it is the thickness of the light saber handle it’s a bit thick but with or without that change it looks awesome
