I bought my santa Joe off of a guy years ago.. I never realized Santa Joe was a Talking MOA...lol And I did NOT have a talking MOA in my collection... So that surprise worked out great! lol His legs were very loose so I removed the Santa Suit and discovered the figure yesterday.. Had to order a Talker restring kit... And Man of Action uniform...I have a hat, boots, and dog tag here..

Good luck with the repairs, Jim!
You have to love it when a nice little project like this seem to fall into your lap, and an item that will fill a hole in your collection.

The blonde MoA looks like he'll fix-up real good... was the Santa beard stuck on when you got him?

Very cool to see a vintage talking Joe restored to his former glory!
Now... can you re-record the voice box to say "Merry Christmas?"
