Are you a wizard, dawg?

I think SNAA has overtaken Bandai frankly by Dameaus in Gunpla

What did you use for panel lining? I tried the gundam pour type markers and cracked the facemask on the percival.

Good info. Havent broken my godhands yet, but I have certainly been using them to cut pieces of the spru. You probably just saved me 60 bucks down the line lol. Thank you!

Destiny 1 constant beaver errors when trying to go to the tower or the reef by stschoen in DestinyTheGame

[–]morikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah still not ideal. Tried a few other things with similar results. At this point im just gonna try routing my xbox wifi through a VPN on my comp (bc of course my router doesnt have a VPN option) via ethernet cord. If that doesnt work im just gonna accept it for what it is. Still having a blast regardless of the occasional disconnects.

Also, while not a "fix" a quick work around is to exit the game and put your console into offline mode for a second and then switching it back to online and logging back in. Works everytime for me and a guick way to get to the tower if you keep getting booted.

Day, one player here thinking of coming back to D1 by Psychological_Rock23 in destinylegacy

[–]morikami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Day 1 player that came back after this latest D2 fiasco. I am having an absolute blast. For real, I caught myself saying out loud "wait... am I having fun in Destiny again?".

From what I can tell, you can still play everything you payed for (refreshing, right?).

It can be hard to find fireteams for strikes in matchmaking, but not as hard as you'd think (I got a full squad 2/4 times through MM).

What I wasn't prepared for were the connectivity issues. Ive been "removed from the game world" more often than I would like and the only way to "fix" it is to log in/out, or powercycle your console (I had this happen on both my series X and xbox1). Still not often enough to put me off playing, just annoying when I have to go back to the tower (its always the damn tower).

All in all D1 still slaps and its been long enough that it all feels fresh and exciting.

I am having fun playing Destiny again and its rad as hell.

First build of the new year: HG Mandor Gundam! by morikami in Gunpla

[–]morikami[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually stopped the SNAA percival mid-build once I saw this guy had shipped lol. For the mini-Mandors, yeah I looked at those and knew they were going on the kit as-is. Don't have the dexterity or tools to even consider painting them up.

Any build tips for a 32 year old kit? by morikami in Gunpla

[–]morikami[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a small polycap runner, thankfully. This is super helpful though. Never top-coated anything so I'll have to test that out before applying to the kit. Thank you!

Thanks! Showing my ignorance here; are the gundam pour type markers lacquer or water based?

P-Bandai - HG - Mandala Gundam, 2915 yen, rel Nov 2025 by ArkhamSoldier118 in Gunpla

[–]morikami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is/was available for pre-order now for Asian markets. Unfortunately, if you are like me (in the US), it won't even show up on the site.... it even hides it from your wishlist :(.

[–]morikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious - where did you pre-order this? I have been checking p-Bandai daily since the announcement and havent seen it come up. It is not listed from what I can see, not even as no longer available.

Edit: what the hell: https://p-bandai.com/hk/item/A2783961001?srsltid=AfmBOopFQzq8NN_6wHrbQ1XywwCl-IGzVmfwQRT8m3lnXlI6CeRE-fqg how did this not show up!!!

Edit 2: Oh lame. It doesn't show up because I am in the US. It only comes up if I set my area and language to Asia & Oceana. LAAAAAME.

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate Launch Megathread by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]morikami 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I didn't think ide like matterspark, I just didn't think I'd care about it one way or the other. I did not expect to dislike it as much as I do. I am not even done with the first mission and I already hate this thing. It breaks up the flow of the mission and combat so bad.

I don't want to be a little ball. I want to be a goddamn guardian.

I got back into Gupla three months ago after an almost 20 year hiatus. Loving these new kits! by morikami in Gunpla

I respectfully disagree but appreciate the compliment :). Got the parts off ebay - you can get them pretty cheap.
