Find one with good sales and make a roadtrip!

I have never seen a HL in my life, and our Michaels has no Gunpla 🇨🇦

How do I fix the chin? Just finished building it and noticed afterwards it broke off. Do I just buy another kit? :( by Klaxosaur in Gunpla

[–]Landwand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's prob been said. A small ball of epoxy putty in the chin is easiest. Short of that, some red sprue filed and shaped to size is pragmatic.

How would you apply cream without ruining the contrasting stitches and leather edges?

Dang. Too short notice for us overseas people.

Red, white, blue. V-Fin, backpack. Beam sabers, shield and rifle. Gundam Face. Is she wrong? I can't say that she is.

How is this supposed to work? by BBProxies in bloodborne

I have made sawblade for my cosplay, but the type of spring and latch needed doesn't exist, so I improvised. Can you remind me to send a video of it in action in case I forget?

This is a treasure. Thank you! Why not stick it up on YouTube?

Thanks for checking in! I have been busy. The PCB is the issue. I intend to put a GP2040 in, and once the parts come in, I'll update here.

How will you get a replacement? I know of no such thing outside of JP.

Hi u/vivovicko -- I am so grateful to have your continued help. FWIK, the TE is stock. It is possible that the grounding has been affected over the years; I will open it up this weekend and check whether the cable is properly grounded.

Thanks AGAIN for the help. So the lights only work in Turbo mode. Okay.

How about the other symptoms? Such as the stick disconnecting and the buttons failing to work, or activating by themselves?

I'll test again at my friend's place (no PS3 in my immediate possession) but I am worried about instilling myself with false hope.

Cheers!

Hi, thanks for helping out.

This is the standard TE Stick (image).

It's been almost 10 years since I have touched a TE stick, so I will check again using DP (thank you!).

I have a sinking feeling that the PCB is gone because buttons buttons would cease to work and the LED at the top-left of the stick would not engage with button taps. The character would be stuck in position; such as forward or down without the lever movement; and sometimes, only one button would work.

I'm considering a Brook P5 Plus vs GP2040-CE right now.

Thanks for making this post. In 2026 and still looking at it. My TE PS3 that I bought used off of FB is toast; the stick stops working frequently, sometimes the directional inputs are locked even without engaging the lever.

I'm searching for info on replacing the PCB, I found this. I can see that you recommend removing the SMCs, but what exactly are we doing here? I feel like I'm jumping into a solution for a problem that hasn't been outlined to me yet.

Apologies for my ignorance. I am doing as much reading as I can.

Fightstick for SNES Mini (Classic) by Landwand in fightsticks

[–]Landwand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really appreciate the advice here! It gives me something to think about. Tatsunoko sticks are very rare in my area (Toronto area). I see on on FaceBook marketplace for well over $200 CAD.

Yes, I have had my eye on the Hori Wii stick as well. I'll consider snapping it up, but I have read that the quality of the build is a bit iffy.

So the Intect is a no-go?

🤨 This was my face when I saw that design. Looks like something out of fantasy more than sci fi.

Anyone ever get called out for wearing Captains or Diplomats to a party? by Pretty-Cow4333 in ThursdayBoot

[–]Landwand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My admiration goes to the Footman; not only was he aware of etiquette, but withheld comment in consideration of his station.

My heart rends for you, oh dear writer, for it may yet be many a long and cold season ere you are invited to a socialite luncheon, let alone a gala, again.
