    I'm surprised your ownership license allows you to open the doll much less repair it. Man the 90s were a different time.

    You should 3D print a new set of tracks… "Pee Wee says welcome to FranLab!"

    The Pee Wee doll is reaching for the scissors? It's Child's Play all over again! 😮

    I would replace the felt pads too, Not having braking action makes the governor spins with no control.

    I remember they used to sell these record boxes in novelty stores back in the 70s that you could actually swap the record out of. Some were battery operated taking the governor issue out of the equation. The talking Alf doll was a battery operated one for example. For some reason they commonly used that creepy flesh tone colored plastic like in yours.
