god they could honestly use a wash, all 3 of em lol. but i love these guys so much. and i only have this single tape so thats ironic! if you ever need more repair tips, feel free to ask me and id be more then happy to help out!
Awww... These toy's from the 80's truly have an innocence to them~ 👍 My favorite was also Elmo but I also alway's loved Big Bird & Cookie Monster~ 💖 Glad you managed to get your Oscar back up & running or moving up & down in can per say lol~ 😅😅😅😅 Do you enjoy toy's / doll's from the 90's & early 2000 era as well? Just curious~ ✌
I never knew there was a Cookie Monster or Oscar that were released for Big Bird, very fascinating! Do Cookie Monsters cookies detach like clip on and off his body or are they permanently stuck to him?
Have you ever use the teddy bear cleaner from Build-A-Bear to clean your plush audio-animatronics I use it all the time and it works amazing and it leaves them so soft and it deodorizes them and sanitizes them
I sprayed him down with this sanitizer called Vital Oxide and it did the trick! Just sprayed it on everything- the can, his fur.... of course, not enough to saturate the fur or on any of the electronics. I let him air out for a few hours outside too. You can still smell it if you get your nose right up to him, but otherwise you'd never know!
Those 2 microswitches you speak of, in this context, are what we call limit switches, because they trigger at each end of the track oscar moves on. Other devices use limit switches too, like floppy disk drives, CD players, and automatic doors. A certain young man who used to be very active within the Teddy Ruxpin on TH-cam community told me that the mechanism that moves Oscar up and down is very prone to breakages, but since this person made up false stories about other things too, it's difficult to determine whether he was telling the truth or not.
Oh interesting! Thank you for the clarification on that! Having experienced it myself, I can see the mechanism being easily breakable, but I don't feel like that would happen during normal play. Perhaps if someone is rough with the toy yes (like that happened to mine), but probably not from him just going up and down normally.
@@blueoctopede OK, well, if I remember correctly, this particular person was telling me that we new batteries Oscar moves too quickly and the mechanism is likely to break, but as I say, this person tended to make up a lot of stories that had questionable reliability, so it's hard to know for sure from them.
ive seen the pull string but the mosty comon problem is it way too fast or slow doe not osund like big birdo n the tlaking plush toy pull stirng 1986 thesame dated the cassette one is
ive never own one myself becouse bay want lotof money that cna aford them the most common problem ive seen on youtube is the part are not movign and but there is sound to big bird but the rest are broekn or need reapir but big bird mostly has more sound

it's amazing how complex kids toys were on the inside back then compared to now, it really is.
You’re welcome blue! Glad I could help! Congrats on scoring the grouchy boi!
Everyone is all together now!!! I'm so happy to see the crew together! Thanks for the video!

Great video as always! can't wait for 2-XL Tuesday!
I always wondered how Oscar's mechanism worked

Oscar party!
Yay! It's wonderful to see them all together!
6:54 Oh jeez Oscar, I think he's cold
One time I found an ideal Big Bird at a Goodwill. Missed out on it however :(
I don’t have my book big bird what are you doing? 😂
Nice glad you could fix him also that’s a bummer that the plastic piece broke but it’s nice that he’s working again.
I'm glad that you fixed Oscar because you complete the Sesame Street gang except for Elmo.

I was just watching your Tyco VS. Ideal Big Bird video yesterday! These guys are so cute.
You did a Great Job Repairing them.... 👍👍👍👍

Omg you finally have one yay!!!
Oscar slowly descending into his can is insanely cute!
Also I can’t wait for 2-XL Tuesday
That was great. Nice collection.
You should remake his original trash can lid that’s still missing, otherwise he’s looking great!
Ooooh, love these repair videos!! It’s so interesting to see how these guys work! One question though, how did you get the cigarette smell off of him?
I sprayed him down with this sanitizer called Vital Oxide and it did the trick! Just sprayed it on everything- the can, his fur.... of course, not enough to saturate the fur or on any of the electronics. I let him air out for a few hours outside too.

@@blueoctopede Oh ok! I was curious incase I ever run into a smelly talker, haha
You finally got Oscar

Boy I have not seen you in a while. Your videos were my fav! Take care!

So cool! Thanks
Well, My guess is Oscar is supposed to smell. He's a grouch. LOL
Awesome 👍👍👍👍
Omg this is so cool
Is big bird made by worlds of wonder? I don’t know about big bird that much.
My mom bought us big bird I believe she still has him
Do you have any videos on fixing cookie monster? I just recently got one he was a little corroded, but we can’t get him to move.
Do you happen to have any of those pieces that trigger the micro switches or can you possibly make 1 or 2?
