Hi everybody, I hope you enjoy this first part of our G1 1 Red Alert restoration! Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Thanks! :)
Another brilliant video bud, cannot wait to see the finished result 🔥👏🏻
Thanks Simon! Part 2 will hopefully be up soon... :)
Did I hear Mr BObot cough? Maybe it's me, but I could have sworn that I heard Buck Cherry playing in the background at one point. Maybe wishful thinking, but that's what I thought I heard! Cool restoration so far man!
Yep, the narrator coughed! :) No Buck Cherry that I know of, but I do like to listen to 80s music while I use the airbrush... :) Thanks for the watch! Part 2 will hopefully be up soon.
Very awesome!
Thank you!
Really Nice Work Hombre! Subscribed!
Thank you! Appreciate the watch, comment, and sub!
Il be watching this tonight
Ok, I appreciate it... Thanks!
Wow, this has everything!! We can already see this is gonna be the best looking G1 Red Alert ever. Fantastic work Mike and looking forward to pt 2 👍
Thanks Dave! I'm looking forward to finishing this one. It's been giving me a lot of practice that I can use, on a hopefully, upcoming collaboration one... ;) ;)
@@MisterBobot I thought that!! Have to say the painted plastic looked great. Gonna have to pull my finger out and get started 👍
Lovely. You've got all the tools buddy good work. I'm more of a bodge it and see.
Thanks! I've invested in those tools for years, way before I was making videos. They definitely make a difference when you know how to use them. Tools or no tools, keep fixing the bots! :)
@@MisterBobot I imagined it must have taken years to find the tools, learn to use them, learn how to disassemble the figures, reassemble them......the entire repair/restore thing. Oy.
@@MisterBobot I only learned a fraction of what you know how to do. Less than a fraction if I'm being honest. (give a gobot a new headlight, paint the chest piece of a white Crasher so I can attach it a black topless Crasher)
@@MisterBobot as always I'm VERY impressed with all the stuff you know how to do. :)
Two parter is also good for long restorations cause some might like 2 short videos instead of watching one long one, also. :)
Very true! There's a lot to do with this guy! :)
@@MisterBobot :)
Hi, Welcome back, my friend :) Gotta watch this now :)
Thanks!
@@MisterBobot I watched it. You seriously oughta think about getting a job doing this. You're terrific at it.
@@Crasher1982 Thanks! I'd be more than happy to fix other people's broken toys... :)

I’m about to attempt a restoration on a battered G1 Red Alert. What paint did you use for the white and red?
I used a basic white, red, and yellow from Createx Paints. I put a small amount of the yellow w/ the red b/c it's a bit on the red-orange side, but not much. Let us know how your G1 Red Alert restoration goes! :)
What would you do if you could not remove an arm because of a stripped screw ? Waiting for more than an afternoon of sun atm for retro whitening. I have had bad weather for two weeks now
There are a few products on Amazon that can remove stripped screws. I have a paste that works great, & a little WD40 helps. :)
What does amoral do is it a rubber sealant of sorts?
Yes, sort of... more of a protectant.
What brand of glue are you using ? Would Krazy glue to rough for the plastic ? Also do you have an alternative to LA’s Totally Awesome degreaser spot remover as we don't have that in Canada. Tried CLR bathroom cleaner. Seems to work but it's gonna take a week, not enough powerful.
I use a cheap CVS super glue. Any type of super glue will work, just use a little bit, you don't want to get any of it on the other parts. For LA’s Totally Awesome degreaser spot remover, I think oven cleaner might work, never tied it though, and the only other thing that kind of works is rubbing alcohol, you must let it soak for a while and use some elbow grease.
@@MisterBobot I let the chrome parts soak a few days into CLR routine clean and the came out red without any rubbing!
@@starfrit Very nice! I'm glad you found something that worked well. Please let us know how it goes! :)
Love your vid but one thing.. i restore classic cars to factory spec. Armor all, black magic etc. are some of the worst products ever for rubber tires, esp. this small. Those products prevent the rubber from "breathing" and actually damage rubber over time. Creates a membrane-like barrier moisture cant bypass. The best product is a high quality furniture polish like liquid gold. Penetrates, protects but no buildup or barrier. Even smells like cherries.
Thanks for the watch and comment! Very cool that you restore classic cars! I didn't know that about Armor All... thanks for the advice. I will definitely try the furniture polish next time and see how it goes. :) Thanks!
