Anyone ever fixed their G1 Triggercons/bots or Firecons/Sparkabots?

    I recently got a few Triggerbots/cons and Firecons/Sparkabots. But the motorized Triggers don't really work (spring ones like Backstreet are fine) and the Firecons/Sparkabots don't spark.

    Anyone here ever have any luck fixes their respective functions?

    The sparker may be used up on the fire cons. I'll bet you could use a flint from a zippo as a replacement. But this all just a guess. I haven't seen one of those in years.

    The sparkers I have all work, but I had to make them work. The mechanisms were rusted. Run the sparker constantly for a few minutes and it should clean itself out.
