Found this sticker at Mr. DIY shop.

Really flimsy when all 6 attach but you have to remember that hi-nu more stable because it's funnels don't attach together like the Nu. There a fix tho that require a rod and some cutting internally but wont effect the the appearance of the funnel and can be removed for posing.

Currently on mine i only attach 3 together which will not look as flimsy tho.

hmmm~ i see... they should have carried the click mechanism on the hi-nu to the nu ver ka.... its kind of a let down that they diddnt...

Since Hi-nu effect part is too small for the Nu ver ka Funnel, i decide to make it myself but i feel the line is not wide enough.

Fuuuuu.. this year just the beginning alrdy announce so many good models... I got 2 in my buy list now.. >.<

Infinite Justice for sale. PM me for price.
Sorry if I can't sale items here....

I'm using this too...go check out the Tamiya Shop at 1u...basement floor...I got mine cheap last time there

The joints on the funnel are definitely not the best thing in the world. The reason that they are that loose is to ease the disassembly and for the fact that the funnels can be arranged in any order.

If you just pose and display on your shelf, it shouldn't be a problem. You just need more patience to get your desired pose one time and then from there, it will be static

Again, things will not fall of if you do not play with that Nu gundam like you play with TF or Kamen Rider

Old stuff but still cool...

MSG (as of Mobile Suit Gundam) included...

Macam PG lor ni...

cutter doesnt need to buy the expensive one
the cheap one at hardware will do..

after all, it also cut well but make sure you get hobby knifes too for removing the remaining nub marks that are left

and dont use cutter to cut other things like metal

ah!? do hardware stores sells cutters that is suitable for gunpla ? i havent seen anyone though

Gunpla plastic is not hard, practically any cutter will do.

Those hardware shop one are meant for more heavy duty stuff like cutting metal sheets, using it to cut gunpla is like cutting tofu with a katana. Overkill, but there nothing wrong with it. I've use it numerous times the only problem I hav is the cutter head is abit big, some parts hav tight space on the runner and those cutter may not reach it. Buy the smaller head cutter if u plan to buy em from hardware shop.

carpathia

I only bought this one, cost only RM12
the Bandai look alike cutter just cost RM6

the grip are better than Bandai one and wont make your hand sweaty

LOL... If you don't want to spend big bucks on a modelling cutter then don't get started and use what you can get from hardware shop or even a nail clipper would do

Once you get started using the modelling cutter, there's no turning back as it is addictive

i agree which is why im looking for hobby cutters - i find that they are sharper and also smaller

yes, i use nail clipper and never looked back.

nail clipper cuts closer than any cutter. my combo, hardware store's multi purpose cutter (which i use to cut wires and other stuff too) and nail clipper. hobby grade cutters are over rated and not to mention over priced. plus, you can't use it for anything else. . at least i can still cut my nails and some aluminum/zinc pieces with a budget of RM15.
