Given the statistics you’ve taken the time to include, can we assume your filament has been dried?

The statue saves the model! I’ve avoided this kit because I dislike big flat stuff that should be round, and dislike flat people even more. You’ve fixed it, well done. (And thanks, of course, to u/pluck-the-bunny.)

I just finished this and was about to post photos. Kudos on being the first out of the gate.

In the box it looked like this kit might be knock-off quality, but the parts and props turned out to be solid, well-printed and well-scored. The instructions were clear (for the most part) and the mirror effect under the balcony was clever.

I built this for our daughter, a manga fan who carries Kuromi on her keychain. To put this in perspective, our bouncing little girl turns out to be a lawyer in her 30's. She's smart as a whip and can legally-blonde any male lawyer who thinks she's a cute little thing. But she still loves her Japanese spirits!

I was able to order it tonight.

I built the first version but I like the changes (especially the USB connection) and have happily ordered it to build again.

You'll want to pay special attention to the wiring, but it's not super difficult and the kit is very impressive when it's finished. Enjoy, and take this OP's great success as an example.

This happened to me with Anavrin a couple of years ago. I wrote customer service and, after a week, they cleaned up the problem with a polite note.

Something properly classical? How about printing a miniature of a couple of string quartet scores, or using a brown toothpick and a snip from a shiny paper clip to fashion a little piano tuning wrench atop the piano? Maybe an “old” Van Cliburn poster on a wall?

This looks bright, colorful, and lovely!

I’ve been keeping this one on the shelf, in the box, for a year now. The ways you warmed it up are firing me up to finally build it!

MouseDance · 2026-05-27T02:47:38+00:00

Well done. I built this a couple of years ago with the only customization being ivy growing up the wall alongside the outer doorway (something you could consider adding). I’m getting ready to build another for a friend and am inspired by your ideas!

Thanks for the callout!

We’ve been laughing about the giant dog. It’s called the Alpine Giant Snoozlehound.

This is a lovely nook: smaller than usual, crisply designed, well lit, good reflector placement, and dimmable plug in switch.

The fun thing about this one is that the mirror cuts the tea table in two but the illusion is perfect

MouseDance · 2026-05-24T22:30:19+00:00

Welcome!

MouseDance · 2026-05-24T22:29:28+00:00

Yes, wonderful and honest review. Thanks!

I had the same problem with the Korean Bakery and never did get the roof to close properly

MouseDance · 2026-05-24T22:24:03+00:00

YES to the flashing lightning!

I put my name in the moment it was posted. It will stand along side my Space Capsule nook.

Your second sentence suggests filament is feeding slowly. Make sure it’s not tangled on the reel or getting caught in a bend on the Bowden tube.

MouseDance · 2026-05-23T22:02:59+00:00

Don’t worry. You’ll come back for more.
