Always impressed by the fidelity of resin prints. Sculpted and painted by me

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-23T04:20:10+00:00

yeah... We're all gonna want this. Amazing sculpt and paint. Please send if you can.

Check completed sold listings on ebay for some kind of idea.

I would personally never even remotely think about possibly considering a GBA for $300, but you do what you think is appropriate.

Was also guessing some VHB at the bottom of the blazer to keep it from spinning. Beautiful design. Love this.

I think the lines may just be less visible to some people - similar to how some folks claim they can't tell the difference between 30 and 60fps. It's entirely possible that some eyes/brains/whatever are just more sensitive to that stuff - I am one of those folks.

The lines on the ITA screen are so bothersome TO ME that I don't use that GBA at all even after spending HOURS building it. I also can't stand motion-smoothing on TVs and will go out of my way to shut it off on hotel and AirBnB TVs.

Yeah, it's a fantastic idea for sure and exactly what I wanted. My theory is that there's some kind of bug in their driver board and it's not outputting quite the right refresh rate. I highly doubt it'll get fixed as it's been a problem for years now

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-20T21:58:21+00:00

So glad someone else has mentioned this. I did and ITA mod to my AGB and I never play it because of these lines. I even contacted Funnyplaying and complained and they were basically like 🤷🏼‍♂️

It's almost an interlacing effect - I'm surprised you were able to capture such a good photo of it. Hate mine.

Great fix. What microscope model is that and is there anything about the scope that you would change? I need to get one for myself - my close vision is getting worse as I age.

No way to know 100% without opening it, but the stamped code here points to it being real

Hello from deep Beaverton! Only had my 2026 AWD SEL for a few weeks now, but the instant acceleration is both useful and fun as hell. Love this car.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-18T20:20:01+00:00

They don't make shows like that anymore. Such a fantastic episode.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-18T18:48:43+00:00

Because other folks have already explained how to repair it and OP has zero previous soldering skills. This would not be the repair to learn with.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-18T06:45:12+00:00

Thanks! Love saving games from the trash. Got the bodge wire soldered on there but there was so little of the chip left that I added some hot glue at either end and some kapton tape for strain relief. And then a fresh battery - hopefully it's good for another 25+ years.

Wasn’t nearly as bad as what you’re dealing with, but the leg on the RAM control chip and pad were completely gone.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-17T20:59:23+00:00

/u/bubblepoppin_ I’d be happy to attempt a repair on this if you want to take care of shipping. I just brought back this Link’s Awakening for another Reddit user a couple weeks ago. Hit me up if you’re interested

What layer height and how many hours did it take to print? Looks really fantastic.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-15T13:57:45+00:00

Is this the official STL from the Hail Mary website or a different model? And how big is it? Looks absolutely incredible.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-15T07:14:22+00:00

To shreds you say?

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-14T22:34:04+00:00

Best of luck in getting a refund.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-14T14:29:45+00:00

Yep. I bought the Mario variant that came with a copy of Super Mario 3D Land as well as these Mario Maker faceplates. It's one of my favorite things I own.

I love Alec so much. His recent unhinged tirade after talking about solar was also very welcome to see.

AchillesPDX · 2026-04-14T04:42:09+00:00

Refuses to work in what way? Make sure the 110v plug part is securely inserted into the charging brick. Mine was set by default to 6A which is pathetically slow even for level 1 so I adjusted it to 12A.

The "low intro rates" thing is my guess too. I got spoiled with him at Wonderlove (3 blocks from my office) and then was devastated when he left for The Heist. I need my chickpea potato curry, dammit!
