errrhhhh.. best to avoid places like jusco or toys r us when buying gundam.. turning to online stores, even with shipping, will save a lot..

luckily at least you purchased it with 20% discount, less damage to wallet, though still slightly overpriced, as market price is around RM60
you can check this website: http://gamersarena.com.my/ for price referencing, they have a shop in Berjaya Times Square KL

this one has been asked many many times already.. but i'll just repeat some basic techniques
many people will cut out about 1 or 2 mm away from the part, and then use a hobby knife to trim it down until left about <1mm then sand it down using sandpaper
personally, i just cut away from the part, and use a sharp hobby knife to trim it carefully and slowly.. it's not as perfect as using sandpaper, but at least it can hardly be seen

thanks man and sorry you have to repeat.appreciate it.1 more question..i know sandpaper have a lot of grade..which should I use for this cause im afraid if too rough it will scratch =(
