can't be MY currency weakness.. it's definitely just good ol' scalping cos no other shops have it?
because if it's 85 then the conversion rate is pretty much 0.047, and that is crazy.. do NOT support these ppl be patient and i'm sure other shops will restock

anyway, MG X completed! pending decals.. capturing the photo with flash really brings out the satellite panels this is just one of the most beautiful units i have ever seen.. they're using the newer ABS that is easier to clean and cut (just like Nu ver ka)... overall it's very light and solid

RG SF.

PS (Polycarbonate Spray) is for RC plastic body which can withstand grease and fuel, not meant for model plastic. TS spray however is meant for plastic modelling.

Both are actually good, but I find normal cutters being sold at normal hardware shops are suffice to do the job, if not as good. It's just used to cut the pieces from the runners, unless it's to trim the nub marks, then only it holds some merits to be the justification to buy 'branded' cutters

Just buy any tamiya or bandai cutter la.... this type of tools no need to think over too much. Start building, less worry!

The way I look at it, since you are supposed to cut on the big piece of the runner (not the thin one connected directly to the piece), it doesn't matter whether you're using expensive or cheap cutters, since it won't affect the actual piece itself. Some people make mistake when they use the cutter to actually cut the thin piece instead of the big one. Even the manual suggests that builder should cut on the big piece

use cheap Bandai cutter should do well
me myself still using cutter when I 1st time into gunpla like 4 years already
full with rusty part and the rubber grip kinda off but still working well

the only thing you need for maintenance is WD-40 for rusty part
thats it, cheap cutter can do well

I dont think buying expensive one can do better, its skill that all matter
beside that, cutter dont totally rid the nub marks, only cut the parts from runner nicely

cut part left the nub about 1-2mm
clean/trim with hobby knife
done

not so hard to do it
and Bandai cheap cutter designed to cut such narrow part compared to hardware cutter

phewwww

My way, I will always go with 'accessories' first. Build weapons, backpacks and wings (if available). I found that when I have finished building the Gundam, I tend to rush things over just to complete it a.s.a.p, compromising the quality. To fix it, I start with the small and repetitive things first
