QUOTE(rihuhs @ Aug 19 2013, 07:31 PM) imagine this situation: you're working there. out of 10 people visited, 8 of them only come, look around and left without buying a single item, or making an interaction with you. that goes on for a few years now, and you seem like still in the same job. how will you be? that is, of course depends on who you are and how's your patience. as for me, a friendly shopkeeper is a bonus. what matters are they got what I want with the best price  i might be one of those 8  time machine i never seem to find anything to buy.. sometimes the occasional paints only.. but very very rare.. other times, come and drool at the figmas, look at some of the gunpla, and leave  guilty as charged

QUOTE(Tiger I @ Aug 20 2013, 02:04 PM) Guys By any chance has Zogok reached our shore yet? Kinda tak sabar already  Eh BTW Kinda misplaced my nipper for modelling, any cheaplow-cost alternative to it while I search high and low for it? Tried finding from Mr. DIY/ACE Hardware, but from what I can see, the nipping point (the range between the plastic and the cutting point, you'll get what I mean) is tad far for my liking. Might as well cut it using nailclipper if such situation arise  nailclipper saja lah  can always clean it up with cutters and sand paper.. nipper makes no difference to me because in the end it won't give me a clean cut.. i still have to trim it

QUOTE(Tiger I @ Aug 20 2013, 02:13 PM) last time using that expensive Tamiya nipper, fuiyoh like samurai sword through stomachhawt knife thru butter, just trim a bit using cutter and i am done. don't sand since mostly i am kinda lazy  cutter trim cukup.. no need to sand too much, just have a sharp knife and a nail clipper.. those are my tools for building  if ada group build then only bring out the nippers la  cannot bring nail clipper to public group build mah

QUOTE(madmoz @ Aug 20 2013, 02:37 PM) oic. i was looking for the melee age 1 (lupa nama cause never watch anime), but sold out when i was there. so got the buster instead. of more interest was tom's stickers event under the flyover on sunday morning, some itasha cars and girls dressed in short outfits. noticed that when i parked the car outside LT's warehouse lol. i saw some cars there too  but never was very interested in stickers on cars, so over the top  anyway! back to topic.. it's called AGE 1 Spallow (for the blue one with the green dagger) or Titus, for the red one with huge arms.. not sure which one u meant.. both seems like melee suits to me.. the one on the flyer was AGE-1 Spallow.. and there were plenty when i left on sunday, all by the door.. maybe they just brought it out

QUOTE(mazaziman @ Aug 20 2013, 05:25 PM) ya lor. i've already got it. still sleeping in the box. didn't interested in Age models. that's y didn't buy. plus i think it will available on next warehouse sale with same price tag. hopefully lower, actually.. not a big fan of AGE, but the MGs are decently fun to build.. although it really does not feel like i'm building an MG

QUOTE(sekngucing @ Aug 20 2013, 11:17 PM) nailclipper not perfect, i only used for thick sprue as for small parts, the round and curvy part of nail clipper will "makan" the part itself  use the edges  or just straight up cut the part from the tree using the cutter if it's too difficult for the nail clipper to get through

QUOTE(TaurusOxford @ Aug 21 2013, 10:32 AM) Okay, who wants some progress? http://imgur.com/rilnUM0,XKmff59#0» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I'm aiming to at least get the main body done before the 24th, since by that point FFXIV is gonna be available for early access and will eat up a shitload of my time. As for the kit itself, i'm having a change of opinion when it comes to my original idea for having GP01 in an "abandoned" kneeling pose. I'll elaborate more on what I mean once his body is fully finished. now it's looking a bit like, compared to the rest of the body, the head is a tad overdone.. but i'm liking how it looks, other than that little nitpick.. loving the shoulder, looking damned realistic there, very metallic

QUOTE(hitsugayat10 @ Aug 21 2013, 03:11 PM) Wow! HGUC F91 is coming out soon? damn... M expecting RG though i doubt that bandai's going to release it since it's smaller i'll take what i can get  always have been a fan of F91's design, but the MG somehow doesn't capture my interest.. i think HG is a pretty good size, albeit a bit small QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Aug 21 2013, 03:19 PM) since HGUC F91 is coming out, higher chances for HGUC Crossbone Gundam?  ooohhh i hope so.. imagine full cloth in 1/144 scale  all the awesomeness in one small(er?) package This post has been edited by HxiiiK: Aug 21 2013, 03:21 PM

QUOTE(RevolutionWorks @ Aug 21 2013, 03:51 PM) can someone pls translate?  translation, roughly  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « generally the top says 'please do not support pirated goods'
below it says <methods to tell the difference> and below it is LOGO different
below the TT one says local goods and below bandai one says bootleg goods
below that, the two lines says bootleg item : has bandai logo at the bottom corner local goods : does not have bandai logo, but instead has ORIGINAL ITEM'S LOGO <-- lol'ed
bottom is basically talking about banning bootleg goods etc etc tl;dr version, pic says bandai is bootleg, TT brand is locally produced goods.. support local goods, do not support bootleg
