Nice Luke belt and Thunderhawk MASK tires custom. I'd like to see M.A.S.K. make a return but with each year, it seems unlikely since 1985 era. Instead, many studios reissue the same popular figures of popular lines many times over. Makina and custom figures at least.
I tell you the world of reproductions has come a really long way. When it started. I really didn't know how I felt about it. Partially because the quality just wasn't there. Now I use them quite often for my own personal collection. I've got several figures, playsets, ships, etc. that would just be incomplete display pieces without them. Many of which would have never been completed due to the price of parts. I keep my eyes out for the real thing at a reasonable price. If I find them I swap them out. If not it's my collection anyway. As always, Thanks again Dave for all you do another great video..
The LEGO tires also look really good piled up in the background behind the Mask vehicle and might make a nice addition to a display, like Tracker has a new set of tires ready to go in case of emergency.
One of the reasons I come back to your channel time and time again. It’s to see the ingenious and inventive ways that you use random stuff and your skills to fix problems. Simply installing 3-D printed replica parts is not ‘on brand’. Maybe as part of a larger build, you could incorporate some of these products. But I’m here to see imagination, not installation.
I show all sorts of fixes and repairs and cover as many ways of doing things as I can. These will be of use to many people which is why I am showing them. Cheers
I know what you mean, but it's just a small update on previous projects, and with parts that are nearly impossible to adequately reproduce by hand. I'm totally fine with that, as I know the next project where Dave will rebuild a vintage Kenner Sandcrawler's tracks with loads of meticulously hand cut pieces of plastic sheet is just around the corner...
Oh it’s great Dave! I’ll check them out because I need new tires for my MASK Jackhammer vehicle. I will also need the gun that goes on the top of it as well. Great job as always my friend.
Very informative video, Dave. Rubbery/soft & flexible 3D prints are a real game changer, especially with the ever increasing level of detail. Hadn't heard of that until now.
Dave, it’s amazing how a 3D Printer can make things look so great. I have at least 4 3D printers, and I am currently working on making them work again, in between some of the other projects I’ve am currently working on. I am trying to get them to work by hopefully by the end of this week or next week. I have a Creality Ender 3, that I am expanding on, a Tronxy XY3 , that needs a new power supply and a Mingda that needs to be bed adjusted, as well as another one that needs to be bed leveled. I will start doing some videos on them as soon as I can on my channel. I had even made stars for the duct tape American flag that I have on one of my glass showcases.
Yavin do some amazing stuff. I did reached out to them a little while ago and they said they are hoping to do a sail for the one man sand skimmer and the wing cannons for the droids side gunner too. two very pricey things i need to complete mine
Interesting projects I myself might have a projet it would be to restore a cobra night raven 86 but Im wonder if its worth the cost due to the facts that parts might cost $$$ What would you do if you were me?
I've been looking for replacement tyres for my mini Gobot and Transformers vehicles but can't seem to find anyone with reproductions. Anyone have any idea of sellers I could check out? Id prefer reproductions rather than naking do with o-rings or some substitute.
I checked them out have nothing I need at all. most of it is star wars & I don't like star wars at all my self. I hated. was seeing if they had any tyes for throttlebots I seen someone Made 3D print doors for the GI joe MCC base. But ? is how they print Rubber??? I need to get a 3D printer.
Those prints are fantastic! Cheers , Dave!!
Thank you! Cheers!
3D printers are a game changer. Thanks Dave.
Amazing!!! Don’t know these guys but will check them out.
Rubber / soft 3D printed parts!!??😮 mind blown, thanks for sharing Dave 🙏🙏
No problem 👍

Thanks for the info and video. Cheers!
Great to see when you replace parts from previous fixes, whether it is something you make or something sent to you.
All the best Dave😊
The rubbery 3d prints, tyres and belt are called TPU. Good for very flexible prints like tyres.
Very informative video, Dave. Rubbery/soft & flexible 3D prints are a real game changer, especially with the ever increasing level of detail. Hadn't heard of that until now.
Glad it was helpful!
Looking great
Thanks!
Really cool projects 😎

Very nice upgrades!! I think I have a set of Thunderhawk tiers from them too.
It’s definitely going to need a wheel alignment after that. 😉
Definitely!
Looks like I'm going in the loft to find my Luke figure, Hopefully I didn't remove the belt 38 years ago 😅
Interesting projects I myself might have a projet it would be to restore a cobra night raven 86 but Im wonder if its worth the cost due to the facts that parts might cost $$$
What would you do if you were me?
Those new tires look too shiny or are the original ones also shiny?
I've been looking for replacement tyres for my mini Gobot and Transformers vehicles but can't seem to find anyone with reproductions. Anyone have any idea of sellers I could check out? Id prefer reproductions rather than naking do with o-rings or some substitute.
Does the gun go in the holster on that belt? It looks like it might
I think it does, but I didn't try.
Is similar to the galvatron Canyon. The original part will cost you almost a $100.
Yeah, I've been after that part for years myself. Crazy prices.
