WowWee MiP Robot: sostituzione motoriduttore Mip Robot

Fri, 27 Jan 2017 18:50:33 -0700

Uno dei due motoriduttori del Mip robot Wowwee è danneggiato. Dopo aver aperto l'involucro, come suggerito dal vostro tutorial, ho alimentato il motoriduttore destro ma non faceva ruotare l'asse della ruota, mentre tutto ok per quello sinistro.

Dove è possibile comprare un motoriduttore per sostituire quello difettoso?

Vi sarei molto grato se riuscite a risolvere il mio problema.

Hasbro Iron Man Infinity Nano Gauntlet: Hasbro Nano Gauntlet "snap" motion not triggering lights or sound

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 11:04:48 -0700

I am trying to fix the "snap" feature on my Hasbro Marvel Legends Nano Gauntlet. The Infinity Stones still light up and make individual sounds when pressed, and I have installed fresh batteries, so the speaker and main board seem fine. However, the "snap" motion no longer triggers the lights or sound effects.

It seems like the internal mechanical trigger or sensor that detects the finger snap motion is either misaligned or broken. Has anyone successfully opened the palm or finger assembly to realign or repair this specific snap switch? Any advice on what to look for once the gauntlet is open would be greatly appreciated.

Slinky: How to untangle a slinky as fast as it got tangled

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 07:04:23 -0700

I know you can work the tangle to the end (normally). Mine is welded closed at the end, so that’s just moving the problem to a new part of the slinky… But also, it made me ask the question I’ve always wondered: What is the trick to UNDO the original tangle. After all, if it’s that quick to tangle, it must be undo-able in 1 slick little move…

Any ideas

Furby: Furby Boom's not moving much and goes to sleep after 1 minute

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 12:17:27 -0700

My daughter's Furby just started to make this cracking noise with every word it says. Also the Furby's moving very quietly and not moving back and forward (at all).

Usually when the Furby goes to sleep, it will bend forward. Also the its ears (sometimes) are not moving forward when going to sleep.

When the Furby is awake, it will last like 1 minute and its eyes will light off (and will go to sleep). It will only wake up if I shake it well.

I also noticed that will not react fast/properly when touching him.

The reset (or the change of personality mode which only went right once) won't help.

I kindly ask for help. I also speak Dutch, Spanish and Italian.

Thanx!

Tamagotchi: Tamagotchi Paradise - Missing Spring

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 09:50:41 -0700

I took apart my Tamagotchi Paradise to replace the face plate and stupidly dropped the knob.

The small spring fell out of it and disappeared on my floor.

I'm thinking of getting a ballpoint pen spring (which will likely be too narrow) and cutting it down to size to replace it.

Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement spring?

The spring is integral for performing clicks with the knob which is the only way to access Tama Labs for the store and Tama Sitter and Settings.

NOTE: The spring that is missing is NOT related to the battery. It's only function is for knob clicks. The knob is only available on the Tamagotchi Paradise.

Tiger Furby 1998: 1998 Furby Motor / Gears Seizing (?) after jump, anybody know a fix?

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 08:51:00 -0700

Hey! I recently purchased a NIB 1998 Snow Leopard Furby (WT code), which did not work out of the box. I anticipated a relatively simple jumpstart (the typical methods of whacking the battery compartment or skinning it & spinning the black horizontal gear with a screwdriver, if the first thing didn't work). While spinning the gear did eventually wake it up, it seems like something's causing either the gears or the motor to get stuck at random, particularly when it's flipped upside down. I dabbed a very small amount of 3-in-1 all-temp silicone lubricant (which shouldn't damage the plastic) on the teeth of the gears (not the shafts, since one of the very few sources I could find said not to do this) with a cotton swab, and that didn't seem to have an effect on the seizing (though I'm not sure if I used enough). I noticed when I was initially spinning the gear, it would catch and become hard to spin for a moment, then return to normal once slightly adjusted. Could the issue be that one of the gears is defective, is the motor the problem, or could it be something like a corroded wire / some other kind of disconnect? I know these guys are prone to motor issues, especially after being dormant for as long as this one, but to me it sounds like that's working fine (everything else functions as intended when it's not frozen). I took care not to deform or otherwise damage the gear, so I don't think that could have caused it. I couldn't find this issue talked about anywhere, and I'm not very familiar with Furbys or small hardware as a whole, so I figured I'd give iFixit a shot. Any advice is appreciated! :]

Here's a video with an example of the sound it makes when it gets stuck:

I don't let it do this for longer than about 20 seconds at a time, for fear of it overheating; nothing stops it except for removing the batteries.
