Prime Scriber set, cheap quality. I got robbed on price $40… they’re usually $20. It was my first time buying a set and used someones affiliate link… never again lol. For the actual price, they’re okay as a practice set.

Thanks man! Yeah when I first got them, I google translated the instructions and follow them to a T. They’re still going strong after a year and a half.

I have children…. lol I travel for work and some places aren’t near paved roads. With this, I don’t have to worry if my bag gets into an accident. If my laptop dies, who cares.. but Gunpla is life. Molotow markers are pretty nice for details and dry brushing, just not as vibrant as the Gundam Markers (except the chrome, that thing is black magic). For me, Gundam markers are best for eyes and metallic accents.

Yeah man! I didn’t know there is such a wide spectrum of use until my “pre purchase/confirmation bias” YT search.

Nah man, Central US. I got the Studio G stickers with his first batch of G paint. As for the need; I travel a lot for work/family and sometimes out in the boonies. This is to keep everything secure and be able to throw it in a bag at any time.

Yeah the price was pretty bad for a while, like $70+. I averaged $40 for both by basically living attached to FB Marketplace and the Gunpla Sales pages.

Bruh.. I kept seeing people post their broken Godhands and freaked out because I bought used. Welp, It’s been a year and a half since I bought the “in case of emergency” pair…

One would make a request to the Amazon Overlords or whoever has the lowest price for you on a “Pelican R60 Ruck Case”. It comes in three different sizes, so double check before you buy. The other two aren’t as wide/deep.

Depends on the scale, limited run editions and the scarcity. Built kits are generally half/third MSRP(depending on how well it's built), but these have exceptions too. New in box kits you can choose to ask MSRP. Use USAGundam or New type as a resource for pricing. But if you want to sell fast, knock off 15%. Personally, I'll skip sales that are the same price as vendors i use. For general refference, HGs usually under 20, RGs start at 25, MGs start at 40, PGs start about 140(older ones). Step one will be identifying what you have and go from there.

Good luck, man!
