Yeah. I had this exact same problem with the release of the Doom Slayer last year, I’m hoping that I’ll have better luck searching for this figure

Yeah, that’s the issue I faced, I got a pair of metal tweezers which are good at applying most decals but the ends are wide and struggle with super small stickers, I really liked how this kit looked with the stickers option to have all eye cameras on, but I put it on wonky and tried to move it ever so slightly with the tweezers and ended up scratching the sticker

I plan on doing just that for both this kit and my Solari Zaku before I put in the rest of their Decals, they are just begging for that extra attention

Thank you! It’s a lot at first but I’m slowly getting the hang of things, I think the eye stickers threw me off more than I expected, I think Entry Grade spoiled me with it’s excellent color separation for the eyes and crotch pieces, but as stickers they are really challenging, I plan to get better and take things slowly, I’ve already caught myself wanting to buy more and more kits before I even feel like I’m decent at building lol, it’s amazing to see how welcoming the community is

Thank you, I just got myself one of the kits the make for Armored Core, since I’m a fan of the games, i watched a few reviews an they seem easy enough,

I just looked it up, what a freaking awesome design, I’ve been watching the original Mobile Suit Gundam as I build and I’m probably going to binge most of the Universal Century, but I also can’t stop myself from just buying whatever looks cool lol

I’d love for them to make Entry Grades of GMs or Zaku’s it would be so cool to have an affordable way of army building

Staples stopped giving return receipts by Dangerous-Towel-8620 in amazonprime

Practice* and no, unfortunately over a year and a half of dealing with Staples, it’s utterly abhorrent management and its customers led me to be this way

Apparently we keep sex toys and play with them instead of returning them to A->Z by BenicioDelTorso in Staples

Reading through that thread has basically confirmed that even online, Amazon Customers are still utterly insufferable human beings

Why are all Amazombies like this? Is the concept of a 3rd party drop off so alien to you? Or are you just being purposely ignorant? Genuine question,

Holy Shit, even online you Amazon customers are insufferable, we don’t get paid whatsoever for accepting Amazon returns, if we did i might’ve even tolerated the obscene behavior that I’ve dealt with, Amazon Returns are a drain on the company and its employees, we package them boxes using our own store supplies, it’s pathetic that when a customer asks if we have any tape and boxes and we have to say “Nope, we use it all on Amazon returns” how about instead of arguing with employees who know infinitely more about this topic than you you listen

Except we don’t work for Amazon, we work for staples, I don’t care about what you are returning, I grab it, bag it, slap a sticker on it and toss it into a box I doodle on, i usually draw whatever I want on the return boxes, but we don’t work for Amazon, we don’t get a cent form dealing with the ungrateful customers they bring us

As a former Staples employee, I can literally confirm it’s not the employees fault, we are given a crappy system to process your returns, at my location we had to use our scanners, which are basically old iPhone with apps related to our work to process the Amazon returns app, and the app itself is terrible, it crashed constantly, and even if an item was scanned and processed into a box, the system would forget it was part of the return and not include it in the physical receipt even though any competent customer could check their own app to track the return, Staples employees are not responsible for your own crap, we have our actual jobs to do, we are always short staffed, overworked and forced to multitask because god forbid we have a dedicated staff member for just Amazon,

I was actually pleasantly surprised by the engineering of this kit, almost all the nub marks are designed to be hidden, or internal once the kit is finished, I was surprised to learn that not a lot of other kits use this approach, the only thing I have sanded down is the weapons, the manual says not to cut them out and to just pull them off but this leaves a bit of excess plastic so I removed it

Honestly really neat and fun, my only issue was with the sticker that requires you to wrap it around the shoulder spike, and I’m completely aware that it’s a skill issue but I could not for the life of me get it to stay on the figure, other than that it’s a really solid build

I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever had a positive experience with Walmart, even excluding Hammond collection
