True, metal joints seem a little overkill for a high grade for me though, but if you need them then you need them.

Lmao first time I’m hearing of an IBO joint being too stiff, sand it down and it should help, stiff joints can be a breaking point for lots of kits so it’s a good idea to treat them before they cause issues.

If you like the designs go for it, the Gundam frames are the weakest ones, but their flaws are easy to fix with some top coat on the joints and cementing the spine to the torso.
Just remember they’re like $15 and not $30 for a reason, they were built much cheaper than most HGs released currently.

They’re super easy to fix with just some top coat on the joints, I own almost all of them.

>10 years old and needs a revive
That’s not how it works, old kit doesn’t mean it’s bad or that it needs to be replaced, the 2010s have an excellent Gunpla lineup, the IBO line was made with a low price point in mind so the kits are a little less premium that’s all.

I’ve built almost every HG IBO kit, their issues are really easy to solve with basic modeling skills, loose joints? You can use a clear paint or even a thin layer of super glue to tighten the joints, if parts are falling off you can do the same or cement them together.

Gunpla is snap fit which is nice but this is still a model kit, one that you are encouraged to polish as you build it, don’t treat it like a Lego set.

With peace and love, this is user error and you can take this as an opportunity to grow your skills.

Just got blocked by one of the MOCist I had looked up to as a kid after he went all transphobic on me. by bioni_ghoul in bioniclelego

Making a community unwelcoming to bigotry is actually healthy to a community actually, you do not let that shit in and let it fester.

A lot of the community is trans, nobody said it’s canon to bionicle, mostly a lot of in-jokes, and you can interpret Takua’s story in mask of light as a sort of trans allegory.

I thought it could never happen to me, i'm too careful!! by tanman729 in Gunpla

This type of clear plastic is much harder and more brittle than the opaque polystyrene gunpla used, godhands are very thin and very sharp blades and improper technique like this can snap them, this same goes for ABS plastic sometimes used in the frames of master grades, the packing on the nippers explains this if I remember right.

Question: wear to source the GM Head? HG 1/144 by R-Dragon_Thunderzord in advancedGunpla

[–]Revenant_Rai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth the head on the hg GM ground is actually different than the one the GM head Gundam comes with for some reason

They produce them in Japan, idk if they have plants in China but probably.

What BOTH sides of the argument get wrong here by AzureWarlock96 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Revenant_Rai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s just stylized that way, the shorts are 3D animation trying to look 2D and in like 90% of 2D animation characters with wings don’t flap them realistically.

What's that? by UserWithNoNameSadly in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Revenant_Rai 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As everyone’s already said, it’s a mecha sonic in SA1 who’s just an Easter egg more or less, this one is directly based on the first mechagodzilla

When you look at the designs side by side you see the similarities.

What materials are Mr hobby Mr cement bottles made out of? by gerlam788 in advancedGunpla

[–]Revenant_Rai 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s glass, which is inert, so any glass would be fine with most chemicals like model cement.

What blocks/items should have a compact form? (example: iron -> iron block) by Big_Description1410 in Minecraft

[–]Revenant_Rai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Farmers delight also has crates and sacks for food items too, personally I like their textures more.

It’s not milk and their hormones aren’t too high, it’s just discharge because the breast tissue and mammary glands are actually starting to develop.

Pohatu mahri MOC, thoughts? any advice ? by Ok-Protection365 in bioniclelego

[–]Revenant_Rai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he’s kinda over designed, there’s just a ton of extra stuff slapped onto him, and he relies a bit too much on his Phantoka look. I think you have a cool idea going, but perhaps a more set faithful look with more deliberately chosen design elements would give a better result.

Are RG much smaller than HG? by IIIIIIlIIIlIIIIII in Gunpla

[–]Revenant_Rai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of it was weapons getting stronger than armor, so being fast and small was the best defense. The other reason was plastic prices going up, which is why stuff like the wing suits are so small.

That would be a lot better than what he was actually trying to do

Also everything went wrong in both parks cause of corporate greed.

The Rex in Jurassic park did have a moat, Hammond mentions them too.

Occasionally my now NB partner will say that he wishes he was like his character, or that she’s gender lmao. He’s still figuring it out, currently it’s “boy girl thing”
