tomy rocky restoring - Therealblack64YT - 01-22-2022 hello I am trying to restore a tomy rocky and I did a few things most of these images were taken around nov 2021 and the last one in 2022  took it apart  face has no eyebrows  now he has them  the parts of the flatbed as it will be cleaned  all his other parts  the crane parts the connectors the turning part now lets clean them this is the toilet  now this is the base of rocky to be cleaned  the bottom the main part of rocky has some dirt that will be cleaned another shot other side close up the buffers will be repainted another shot back these stickers will be replaced with better ones other side not so bad dang I cleaned that  now all the parts and a motor  the missing rod was done by 3D printing can't take all the credit brother did mesurements and printed I sanded it a bit and painted it a gray that's now good but will at least be a coat if I get better grey  now all that's left is to rewire him and putting it back all together RE: tom rocky restoring - Super - 01-22-2022 Nice work T-Real. I have repaired and sold many Rockys in the past but mostly I acquired a lot to get the small black wheels and replace them with gray to be re-sold. I see you have the version that already came with gray. Which brings up the question 'why do some of the motorized Rocky's have have small black wheels on both the Tender and him while others have small gray wheels on him and Tender?  I think the Tomy version only came with gray and the tender has large gray wheels. RE: tomy rocky restoring - Therealblack64YT - 01-22-2022 well I think because there's the tomy rocky and then there's the hit toy rocky which has dark grey wheels then there's the fisher price re release but yeah there's like 4 different rocky variations RE: tomy rocky restoring - Therealblack64YT - 09-09-2023 well this thread is now full circle and I used the rocky I was trying to restore. Not anymore I got another rocky that was almost complete but thanks to me having another rocky I was able to take the spring that's inside the part that goes up and down and took two of his legs to complete my replacement.
