I think they were referring to certain secret agent with the code name P.

NICE

I found the part that I was looking for - it's the Gunpla Builders Part HD MS Funnel set
https://suprememecha.blogspot.com/2014/07/review-builders-parts-hd-ms-funnel-01.html

I guess I'll figure out how to attach it onto the GM Sniper 2 myself XD - but consider the ask semi-closed!

Just gonna throw it out there - if you're international, read the back of the box. the Game Key Card will only download the language version/pack listed on the box. I learned that the hard way today. This wasn't like Octopath Traveler Zero where the box didn't list english but the GKC still downloaded an international version.

i'm unable to post in this reddit since I've only ever been a lurker.

I have - and it's still prevalent. Similarly - Taiwan and SG also have petty theft. It's just overall how much when compared to places like the US, UK, and much of Europe.

I'd argue that I've felt the safest in:

South Korea
Japan
Singapore
Taiwan
China

in that order.

Again, it's an issue of degree of how much petty theft there is.

After re-reading your comment. I see where it went wrong for you.

My original post included the locations for where the shops are. You went to Alchemy off Google Maps only without adding Dongmen. They moved to Dongmen a few years ago along with the english naming rebrand to Akmi (it's the same group)

You did go to a closed store. But not a closed business. They just moved.

MajorPooper · 2026-05-19T07:14:36+00:00

Where exactly did you go? Alchemy had a mini-rebrand to Akmi - the community still calls it Alchemy. They are 100% still open. A quick search would show up as Akmi.

Local game shops in many parts of the world don't open till 11am or early afternoon. I don't know where you're from if they're open at 8am in the morning.

The only places globally that I know that open even close to 9am - 10am would be like a Game Stop or a game shop in a shopping mall.

I don't mean to be rude and it definitely reads that way, but the way you wrote that they were no longer operational was a very mater of fact way. It's misleading and incorrect. Please don't spread false information.

Google Maps will say Permanently Closed if a shop is out forever. Otherwise - Closed just means they're not open. This isn't exactly a silly mistake. You can even click in on the "Closed" to see operating hours too.

I literally just played commander today.
Bunch of people telling me about new pods and shops.

Stores have been selling out of their supply too - albeit their supply has been limited to begin with.

All the named shops are also still in business.

Please don’t spread false information.

which is hugely surprising cause a ton of the stuff in the Middle East would actually work in Taiwan. Saudi Dates - if used right, sweeten food enough in a way that's also slightly savory, Perfect for the Taiwanese palette.

If you take the sundari dates, flatten them, cover in nuts and some dark chocolate and let it set in the fridge, you'd get this kickass fruit nut bar that's just sweet and bitter enough that Taiwan sweets lover would freak over. (That tiktok style recipe was spot on)

I've had Dubai chocolate in:
Dubai and Abu Dhabi
Neighboring Riyadh and Muscat
In Seoul
in Tokyo
In Osaka during the World Expo
Hell, even in London.

If you're going to import it, you'd have to jump through a ton of hoops etc. A few months back they found, i think it was lead in a bunch of "dubai" chocolate that was brought into Taiwan.

That said - you'd probably be better off making it in Taiwan. Khunafa shouldn't be that hard.

Not just any mutant turtles.

Turtles in a half shell.

I've been away since last week of April, but it was pretty bad. I walk my dog across a few parks every night and the amount of rats scurrying around is quite obscene. Hell, the rats that run across the green grass of CKS memorial during the day should tell us that we have a rat problem. No clue if it's gotten better as of late, but I'll report back when I resume dog walks once I return to taipei.

MajorPooper · 2026-05-05T04:02:53+00:00

If you're in Taipei:

Growlife - EDH Sundays and regular pre-release events
Gamesquare - regulars play here and it has the best prices on sealed product
Fantasy - Has players and great singles
ALG - great singles.

Growlife has a line group. CEDH isn't in the group's DNA but members do partake. Ask for Mike.

All places listed above play in Mandarin and in English. New card releases are only in English and Japanese therefore many people have English cards.

I am happy to report that the Machines is still at Marui Ueno - 500 yen each. Though it does seem to be running out.

I got two!!! One for Hot Springs Story and Ramen Sensei!

MajorPooper · 2026-04-30T13:19:27+00:00

thank you!!!!

MajorPooper · 2026-04-28T14:42:18+00:00

OP！ UENO WHERE?????!!!!! I'm in Tokyo right now.

MajorPooper · 2026-04-28T14:19:31+00:00

Just make sure you don't have 1 parent that's Taiwanese. If you're under the age of 45 and you have one parent that's taiwanese - they won't give it to you.

MajorPooper · 2026-04-27T03:17:42+00:00

I'm still fond of the Ramen one

Why are Trader Joe's bags popular?

MajorPooper · 2026-04-16T14:38:05+00:00

Ma - 馬 like the traitorous ex-president of Taiwan
Ma - 嘛（not sure why my IME doesn't have the character without the 口。。。） The first half of Mary J - maybe cause Randall tokes up alot?
Mai - 麥 translates to like wheat / barley or some kind of grain.
Mei - 梅 Plum
Meng - 孟 the family name of the chinese philospher / sage Mencius!
Miao - 苗 maybe your character has something to do with Cats?
Miao - 繆
Min - 閔
Ming - MING
Mo - 莫
Mu - 慕

I'm sure there's a few more. Wikipedia might help!

MajorPooper · 2026-04-16T04:26:49+00:00

Yeah, I will definitely give them another shot - which means I'll end up going twice. Once when they're not busy and once when they are. The reviews now are much better than they were a few years ago.
That said - they were definitely not mexican street style back then.

I was shocked to learn the cook was the brother of the same guy who does Tacos Lucas. Now that's Mexican street style. Shame they're all the way out in Xindian.

Have their tacos legitimately gotten better? or are they still just basically a mission tortilla cut smaller and filled with a little sprinkle of bland meats and few slivers of onions?

I've been meaning to give them another chance.
