I went with my dad and I chose this as a birthday present from Coopers' toy shop in Rotherham. I was so excited. After, he parked up round the corner and left me in his land rover, for what seemed like hours. I couldn't resist opening the box. From memory I definitely damaged the Sea Wolf and he was very cross with me. The damage can't have been that bad as I had going up and down in the bath! Great job Dave!

Fantastic job Dave. Found the fix on the front section and the telescope particularly innovative.

Brasso & creamy furniture polish combined is brilliant for polishing clear perspex and other plastic parts like helmets, e.g. Red Devil. Gives a high sheen and polishes out light marks/scratches. Be careful not to polish out any painted decal/wordings. Works like a treat on Space Explorer bubble helmets and Astronaut visors. Love the videos and you ingenuity!

Did you ever think of a solution for the hinge repair? That‘s the problem I have to tackle with mine. I‘m so thankful for this channel otherwise my toys would just be sitting in a box. It inspires me to get them out to make them display worthy.

These days I would most likely make something out of Styrene as you will see me do in other videos. It would be a pretty simple shape to make. Then just paint it to match. Cheers

I print my own water decals with a ink jet, if you get a can of spray varnish it should be enough to make them waterproof :) id rather you didn't dunk that in water though after all the work you put into it, great job as always

I have a UV/blacklight which I have used with retrobrite to de-yellow plastics. I live in NI which gets less sunlight! It’s a desk lamp from B&Q with the bulb removed and a UV bulb fitted. Line a suitably sized tank with shiny foil to help reflect the light in the tank.

I think that the camera/grab mount is actually threaded, if you look closely. Great job, though. I always wanted one of these.

How about a UV(A) light bulb for whitening plastics indoors in the winter? Or a second hand face tanning lamp? I'd imagine you'd get a fairly consistent source of UV.

i don't think that the pump is for the Action Man series for the AT on the pump denotes the mid 60s series in the US of adventure team but i may be wrong for the action team had a submarine and the molds were sent to the UK for the action man series.

+KleverStudios That is how this works. The main body fills up with water soaking everything. To make it float you fill the dome with air. I'm sure it's the reason for many rusty action man dolls.
