Grossest Blitzwing Organ Donor: Parts swap, rust removal, plastic reconstruction for a clean result

What happened to this parts bot? It looks like it was dragged under a car and buried where nobody would find it. But there are good parts to be saved. In this episode of Repair...Repair we'll refurbish a G1 Blitzwing that needs new wings, a tank turret, and a nosecone. Along the way we'll see some interesting engineering details like the unusual way his legs stay extended, and the way his missiles fire (or more accurately, fall out). There's also rust removal using vinegar, and a plastic reconstruction using homemade epoxy based on super glue and baking soda. About the Channel: Welcome to portmanToy.
