Thanks for this in-depth look into the restoration!

The application of the flocking had me worried it would come out flat and possibly piled on. I'm impressed that it came out like an actual buzz cut and like the original Joe's. Nice job!

Very enjoyable video. I've done a number of Action Man adventurers in shades of grey/white/silver. To guys I've sold them to, the feedback has been great. Mostly I think because us mature guys (50+) who owned the originals like the figures to have "aged" like ourselves. We've all aged....so why not our action figures too? Some of my projects even get glasses too. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

How durable is the flocking? Does it rub off?
@TheSkullReviews Жыл бұрын
Very durable, holds up well, it has to be dunked in rubbing alcohol for a few hours to remove it.

I’ve never actually held a 1970’s or 1960’s Joes but watching all these restoration-videos should help me repair one of necessary when I get one also, out of how many in box gi Joes I bought none have dog tags so how do I find some without paying a fortune on eBay?
