It should say so on the bottle, but it makes me wonder if its an unintended sideeffect of the way these are built, because the brush is just connected to a piece of plastic stuck in a tube.

I have another unused pot and only the brush is really submerged there. The plastic is barely touching it.

The point of these brushes is to allow you to precisely apply the glue to your parts, because it melts the plastic to bond.
If the brush was longer by default, you would have a lot of excess dripping down while trying to apply it, potentially risking a stray droplet to ruin your part.

I didnt know about the importance of that feature back then and it doesnt look like bluesky lets me add it now unfortunately.

But the post is a screenshot of twitter posts talking about the brushes of tamiya cement pots being extendable, to hit the bottom of the pot when it gets low.

The trend of major corporations kicking themselves in the balls continues.

I dont know who found and shared this post, but thank you for the hundreds of notifications greeting me when i woke up lmao

Did we watch the same movie?

Didnt even put his ID into the post, smh

Currently building the HG Ez8 from 08th MS Team, because i want to paint and weather the hell out of it, but the plastic is so hard, it killed my nippers.
They don't cut properly anymore and have mini-dents in the blade now. Its an old kit, but i still didn't expect this.

Yeah i got one of those but the blade wasnt long enough, so the handle of my knife was hitting the plastic. :/
I ended up using a rather long angled bit because the tip of the blade was able to reach halfway and i could carefully cut it from multiple sides

Image depicts a part from the Moon Gundam gunpla set. It has a nub connection between two raised areas, making it very difficult to remove the remains cleanly

Truly the worst kind of nub.
Cant flush cut, cant file/sand down.

Thanks Moon Gundam

Various Ray Studio tools, new airbrush, new bits and bops, new knife, new vise...
At this point i am no longer sure if my hobby is Gunpla and plastic or if its collecting and testing tools

IRL example of the upcoming kit. Its a third party kit for the tallgeese from wing gundam

I was thinking of painting the Monument Repair Type before applying decals and now i see this announcement...

preproduction type hizack done!

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

Harder imo because they are more fleshy and have more detailed surfaces

It looks so cool, but i cant believe the gun alone is 120€ over here aaaa

Its fascinating that for most of these, i am picking the less popular option

You'd really think with all the advertising and shilling, the game awards would be able to afford new servers, yet here we are for another year of the website being borderline inaccessible.

Fair but this just makes me go to third parties because they sell it for 40€ less 🫠
But i guess GW has never made much sense

Did the lawyers for all the takedown notices become too expensive or what?
And it can't be the "import fees and taxes" either, because their local stores have the same exact pricing, plus they claim THEY pay for these fees.

Screenshot of the Soulblight Gravelords in the EU store, priced at 200€ instead of the 175€ that the 155gbp would convert into.

Games Workshop just released the new Warhammer christmas boxes, which seem alright, but what the hell is up with the pricing?

They are priced at 155gbp in the UK, but for some reason they set it to 200€ in the EU, instead of the 175€ it would convert to.
What are they smoking

I actually didnt think it was that bad.
The worst things about it for me are probably just the countless tiny stickers and how some armor parts are holding on with hopes and dreams

Little Zeta got stickers now.

Can barely pose him though because the hips are so loose, the heavy back keeps pulling him and its bad enough it even makes the legs move.

Time to move on to something more fun

The gelgoog is nice and all but the EZ-8 is special for me and i think the scene where the shield is used to prop up the gun is just too cool.

The bazooka incident is mine… or maybe his silly little run in gquuuux
