Thank you for making this video. Needed to find the information to get my son’s old GI Joes cleaned up. I appreciate it.
I had a 12" original GI Joe in the 60s and I wanted more but my parents wouldn't buy me anymore because of the cost I suppose. I would collect the Gi joes now but money is tight and finances have not worked out for me lately. It's great to see them and enjoy those memories I had as a child. Hopefully I will get to a toy convention one day when money is available so I can buy one or more of these figures.
I wash Joe clothes in a Masson jar with a drop of Dawn in cold water and a few airsoft BB's shake it and watch the years of backyard adventures just float away. Rinse in a small strainer, My wife gave me two cookie cooling racks to air dry outfits.
GI Joe Eddie here just wanted to say hello and thank you for the info God bless you and your family hope to hear from you soon and hope to see any of your collection God bless GI Joe Eddie over and out

Glad I'm not the only adult who does this stuff! These videos are very helpful guys. Also, I love the scuba outfit and Marine Jungle Fighter uniform I just got from Cotswold Collectibles; my joes look great in them with all their original accessories.
Great tips I am going to,look for that little,iron
Thank you for the shout out and the great tips. I really like the small iron. I think we've all had that collar that just doesn't want to stay down. Good Stuff!!!
Praise well deserved, Ray. 🙂
Very informative video thank you!
Just restored a 1964 and a Mike Power now I have more tools to restore and clean my joes.
Just bought a lot of ruff Joes from a flea market. Gonna try most of the stuff in this video! Thanks for posting. :)

Great tip Man I've been with cotswold since 1989 when I found your address in a Girls dolly mag.Stay cool
Loving these videos brother, let me know when that bunker piece comes out, I want to do a review on my TH-cam channel
Mini iron? I didn't know that was what it was used for. Thanks! I've used electric heating pads for injuries. Wrap the pad around the Joe and it got rid of the wrinkles. Great video!
Thank you guys
Great information on how to restore and what not to do when working on original GI Joes! Thank you for the advice on the acrylic paint to use for the hair repair of brown-haired GI Joe. Any advice on the best colors for restoring the blond or red head-painted Joe? Thanks
Brown Sharpie works good for eyebrows. Fine tip sideways.

A couple questions. How long do you leave the white clothes in the polident? Also, with the small iron, do you still put a washcloth over the clothes or do you go directly with it since the heat isn't as intense?
I bet your wife could never get you to iron your clothes, but your Joes' probably always look sharp! 🤣
Hi guys really great video I have a theory about the raccoon eyes when action and gi joe were filmed in the 1960’s they were in black and white so these figures for filming had the eyes accentuated for film so they could been seen properly early action adverts even had painted looks left or right so I think that’s the answer to the raccoon eyes have a look and see for your selves
12:45 that’s your opinion
During all the time I've been collecting, I have come to the conclusion that the scar on Joe's cheek tends to match the lip color. Not always, but most of the time that seems to be the case, so one less color to match.
Edit: The Marine camouflage uniform is a good source of bits and pieces you can use to make new pockets, and if you have one where the sleeves are torn concentrate in the back of the shirt - if it is intact with no holes or tears, it can be used to make a cloth helmet cover to match Joe's uniform. I've made a few from otherwise unusable uniforms, and they are a nice change of pace. from the standard painted camo on the steel pot.
I’m trying to figure out how to get a foot back on a vintage gi joe is there any specific tool or trick? This is the one that has bigger foot
How do you get soot out of GIJoe Clothes? House fire fubarred boxed 30th anniversary Joes and Clothes.
Im missing one of the buttons button of a GI Joe Land Adventurer jacket and cant find them anywhere.
Hi I have a question is there any way to fix cracks in the Gi Joe / Action man Bodys
