Iā€™ve noticed that the paint job on most Wheezyā€™s is poor. Anyone know which paint to use for a retouch?

Itd be very hard to do since they use special tools/techniques when making toys like this. That material oesnt take paint well by itself from what I hear, and the paint would get messed up everytime you squeaked him.

You think so? Iā€™m going to ask around and see if that is the case. If I find that itā€™s fixable Iā€™ll let you all know which paint to buy :slight_smile:

Well, I remember Wampar had a hell of a time painting his original pixar ball, and they are both made of similar materials. And yeah, when the paint gets squeezed, its going to crack. You might be able to add another product to help with this, but by itself, paint wont work well on a squeak toy. This is coming from an art student.

Iā€™ve read that you can use Cel Vinyl on rotocasted toys, especially squeaky ones. Essentially, to create Wheezy they made a wax or resin model, and then created a hollow two sided mold. They poured liquid vinyl into the mold and spun it super fast. After a time they stopped it, let it cool ,and opened it. All of the liquid stuck to the outside of the mold, creating a hollow toy. The good ones typically use a paint called cell vinyl, which is a special paint used by animators to color in animation cells. :smiley:

Wow very informative thanks! :slight_smile:

so correct me if im wrong, itd be near impossible for a collector to fix anything, then?

I think heā€™s saying the opposite itā€™s fixable if you use the right paint. I just donā€™t know how to paint thatā€™s the problem. Need to visit youtube haha


Donā€™t loose your French accent Emma, British accent is not so sweet take for example Ratatouille vs Cars 2.

I really enjoyed your video Emma. I especially loved the pictures in the top left hand corner, that was a very nice touch. I plan to make a video like yours hopefully in the near future, I feel as though there is so much of my collection you guys have yet to see. However I have no where to display them as nicely as you did, so that is a bit of a dilemma but I donā€™t think it will stop me :smiley:

Also I have finally completed getting all of Andyā€™s board games, with the exception of checkers and Ants in Pants.
