            Nice pick up! I knew a guy who used to repair these. He said it's usually the sodered(sp?) connections. They need to be redone because they used a cheap mix that breaks easily.

              you could probably ask around on the Joe Forum the trenches if no one here does those repairs. there are people who do this for a fee, just like repairing the talking Joe's

                      the medic also sells his service on ebay, or least used to. I had him repair a MB talker for me several years ago. it think his name is APB medic or something like that

                          I would have opened it, I'm an opener. Toys must breathe.

                            I was joking, but some people don't care and want the experience of opening up a MIB and adding stickers etc... Personally I'd find a nice loose example to display next to it. That's what I've done with my TS.

                                Anybody picked up any new Joes, lately?

                                I got a Timeless Collection Military Police Joe. The one in the Greenish/Blue fatigues with the Airborne Insignia. Different than the 40th Anniversary MP I have in the Khakis with White helmet. Also picked up an African American Masterpiece Collection Marine.

                                Been on a bit of a Captain Action Round 2 kick lately and got that out of the way. Ready to get back to Joes and Mego.
