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

Nice Troubleshooter! Now get to putting those stickers on!

I used a place called the Medic years ago...They fixed one I had then, but it stopped working again....There's a guy that has a Facebook page Im trying to contact now...

Ummm, I don't think so...lol...That's part of the price tag on some of these sets...I remember a guy online that had a brand new, box never opened, Secret of the Mummy's Tomb set...And everyone was like, open it, open it...lol....I don't even want to know what that set would bring sealed....

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.

Indeed!

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.
