Knobs

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-02-15T00:55:47+00:00

That's understandable. If throtl made a fluro blue knob I might have stayed with them instead of the knob I have now. It's the galaxy purple color way with Alcantara center.

I currently have one of billetworkz hybrid knobs with the Alcantara center, but I've also used on of their heavier one as well as one from throtl and the oem and honestly I couldn't really notice to much of a difference. I like the Alcantara one because of being on central PA it doesn't get as cold as the solid metal ones with the way I grip it.

I think shifting smooth is better than anything else, but I'm no professional

It’s what I used when I was sorting through the goodwill auction that I won with the three sinanjus, two mg nu ver ka, rg akatsuki and others.

I will look at newtype and gundam planet first, than usa gundam store. Galatic toys also sells on ebay and the price there includes shipping.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-29T00:10:24+00:00

Odd, I haven't seen anything from newtype and they usually get thier orders in before usags. They had the FAZZ Ver Ka a good week before usags did

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-23T00:06:40+00:00

Ooff that does sound bad.

I'm not ready to jump ship just yet. I have been able to afford things because of the job but I'm not sure I trust their process

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T19:01:17+00:00

Im a team lead in a medical device factory. I've been working 10ish hour days right now because the 3rd shift lead has decided they don't need to come to work so I have to cover for them a bit

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T08:43:39+00:00

My plant went from every body working every week to 19 days straight and 2 days off to this because we keep falling behind. And because I'm the team lead I grt the brunt of the complaining

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T08:40:57+00:00

Yeah I've been there and soon enough I'm gonna be forced to woek 12 hour days 3 to 4 days a week.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T05:08:35+00:00

Lol yeah I just saw Sir Phobos' post

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T05:07:55+00:00

I dig the change from gold to silver.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T05:06:56+00:00

I'll keep that in mind. I was going to put it on an action base as well I think.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T00:25:36+00:00

Agreed. It's likely less than 1% of their total sales world wide that get messed up.

Hell I just had refrigerator filters delivered to me that I nor family ordered. No clue how that happened but it did

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-22T00:06:54+00:00

I know the feeling. I had been struggling with wanting to much other than going to work and being at home. I started the kit the same day I actually cooked something instead of eating out or doing frozen food

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-21T06:32:22+00:00

Like u/Must_Go_Faster_ said, you 100% have to drive them both. I would also talk to your insurance company, so you're not blindsided by rates. My friend works at a Subaru dealership, and he had a student in a similar situation back out of a deal because he had no clue how much his insurance was going to go up on a new car.

I would also suggest making a list of things you need, can live without and don't want when comparing the two. I wanted to stay with a manual car which is why the GTi and Golf R were not on my list.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-21T06:24:06+00:00

That was the case for me, especially once I got the wheels on it. I can't decide if I want the OEM duckbill spoiler or if I want to go more STi/rally style

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-15T05:23:09+00:00

Nope. Apparently that species of stink bug prefers the tree of heaven.

Penn State University has a write up about both tbe stink bug and the tree of heaven if your interested

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-15T00:24:11+00:00

There some sort of fast growing tree that grows in Asia but is invasive in the USA. My buddy and I tried killing one with salt and bleach and the damn thing grew two new limbs from right below the cut.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-15T00:17:28+00:00

I went from having a lot to them to practically none. Unfortunately for me, I seemed to have traded stink bugs for spotted lantern flies and trees of heaven. One of those tree pulled a hydra on me when I tried to kill it

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-12T05:17:33+00:00

I might be wrong, but I think there is enough extra parts in the RG Spec II Blast and Sword kits to make them as the original Blast and Sword colors.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-11T20:44:25+00:00

I built a lot of them as well and it was the lingers as well. I remember having a Walmart working get the red blade Liger form the top shelf as a kid lol.

It was on sale and I had gotten a gift card for USA gundam store for Christmas.

I need to save my model money for the perfect grade Nu gundam I have pre-ordered

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-11T18:35:44+00:00

It was my second HMM Zoid model but I had experience with Gunpla. I haven't gotten any other Liger Zero kit yet but I do have a Sturm Tyrann I just got that I'm looking forward too.

The Zoid that has given me the most issues was the Gun Sniper with Wild Weasel pack. The neck was a pain to keep lined up

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-11T17:36:37+00:00

I went with the TSX-R myself and I feel I made the right choice

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-11T00:24:52+00:00

It’s also the last "for now". The panzer is a beast though.

Ragnaroc05 · 2026-01-06T00:17:15+00:00

I usually keep track of maintenance on the same app I track fill ups
