Mine droops now. I opened it up and can see white stress marks around part that cranks it up and down. Could it be fixed with black electric tape ala a Hiss Tank to at least stay up if not be able to crank up and down anymore?

Sorry man I have no idea how to help you out, I'm just fighting every urge to make so many jokes right now. Good luck, and I hope someone can help you out.

Wowyou really could have worded that less suggestively. Anyway I you only want to display it just wedge a little black rubber or tape on it. If you still want it functional I would try to replace the entire cannon. Repairing thirty year old plastic pieces is dicey. I get nervous replacing o-rings. I am afraid the o-ring will be to strong and cause the waist to shatter.

If you don't plan on selling it, you could do what I did with my Hiss cannons. I applied multiple layers of clear nail polish in the little holes where the cannon connects to the base. It definitely works.

Sorry, I didn't think about the title really. Will def do that Hawk, I don't intend to sell. I really think the Joes got some amazing vehicles in 88 and the Mean Dog is one of my favorites.
