Started a forum topic: Anyone replace the rotary encoder on their Matty PKE?
Hi all, The encoder is dead in my Matty PKE, seemed from new to be intermittent but now dead, so I opened it up All wires are connected and getting power, and upon further disassembly the contacts are deeply scored, which is strange as I haven’t used this feature particularly much. Has anyone rep…

hey all, Got my Mattel stuff the other day, and decided to set Spengler up as in the Sedgewick scene I cut a pin in half, bent it into a rounded hook, heated the tip and pushed it into the thrower track so it could hook onto the belt as seen in the movie. <a class="lightbox" href="https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/f/7ffac9b64ef4ffdfd085cce487d1d90c3b6d2403.jpeg" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/ig9WRARu30zRx4opO4K8vv2zNGH.jpeg?dl=1" title="image">[image]</a> <a class="lightbox" href="https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/0/1/01f47d351773ea4cacddbb79ac514d74b14a018a.jpeg" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/hiia26JmtD2tIz2d4Akfs1v90e.jpeg?dl=1" title="image">[image]</a> Easily removed if I c…
