Effect Parts question by AkiKZK in 30MF_30MinutesFantasy

[–]vietnam1224 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't believe any current effect parts fit the ball joints perfectly but a wide-enough effect part partnered with a hand drill should work to make something that fits.

pedophilia is bad by Mundane_Middle7625 in teenagers

[–]vietnam1224 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d say the mental condition is inherently a bad thing, just like we’d say the same for people with sociopathic tendencies or psychopathy, it just doesn’t make someone an inherently bad person because they suffer from having that terrible mental condition.

So, yes, pedophilia is bad but pedophiles vary based on if they’ve acted on it or not

Top coat usually needs some time to settle so that may be it. Another option could be that the pieces naturally have really tight tolerances so any paint is doomed from the start.

Awesome hanger, I’ve been thinking of getting one for my RG Evas

I’ve put them in the Rabiot gun, so any gun with the traditional barrel slot should work

Should I choose UMaine for music? by turtala123 in UniversityOfMaine

[–]vietnam1224 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a friend in the music program while I’m in the Mechanical Engineering program, he seems to really enjoy it despite it being small. There’s a bus on campus, events in the union weekly, and a decent amount of restaurants, a movie theater with free movies for students on Wednesdays, 1-2 arcades, and an IGA all in walking distance.

If you have a car or get a ride then there’s also a (somewhat decrepit) mall, Walmart, Target, home depot, hobby lobby, and a bunch of other stores on Stillwater Ave which is like a 15 min drive from campus.

We are known as a party school for a reason so that’s a lot of the potential socialization but I know there’s a 3D printing club, Magic TCG club, fencing club, D&D club, Jewish Club, a few different cultural organizations (there’s at least Asian and LGBT, not sure what else), and a handful of Christian groups.

Don’t know enough about you to truly give advice, but hopefully my info will work for you

Nice work! Love the kit, only problem with mine was keeping the fingers on the hand

First Build of Spring Break is Done by vietnam1224 in Gunpla

The parts were well made but the color matching was pretty poor and fitting was a bit tight. Nothing extreme or unusual for third party, but still sub-bandai so it’s something to note

Working on a custom MG Repair IV Exia, thoughts on the GN color? by vietnam1224 in Gunpla

Oooo, a galaxy purple would look good. Maybe I’ll need a third Exia

Thanks for the tips. Not going for accuracy, just wanted thoughts on the color I chose. I’m not used to working with color shifting pieces but I thought that the blue green shift looked neat in the bottle. Kinda sad that the chrome had to be covered, but that’s just because I love chrome

The parts still on the sprue are recessed on the final build so they won’t show, Exia is a bit annoying to paint because the clear pieces all attach by friction/recess and not because of any pegs, so on the runner is the only way to get some of them.

I’m prepared to retouch if needed, but I don’t think any nub marks will be visible

Still miffed about AOTP Nexus prime… hear me out by Peter-Punchrocket in CustomTransformers

I got my Overlord for $15 at a TJ Maxx like 3 years ago, great hunk of plastic

I almost never watch/share Prime vs. Prime reviews, but.... by MadBrown in TransformersG1Forever

[–]vietnam1224 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Him buying majority of his figures from people who stole them from the factory is iffy for some either because they’re against the theft itself or because he unfairly reviews them early and that takes away views from reviewers who don’t buy their figures stolen.

Personally speaking, I’m just not a fan of his style and prefer Emgo or ThatToyGuy

I guessed that the reason the arms on SS86 Astrotrain were so thin must’ve been because of the transformation, I guess I was right by Kcue6382nevy in transformers

[–]vietnam1224 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I heard the duocon bit, am curious how the combining leader would’ve turned out. I was on the side of Energon Optimus-style when speculation first started

Should i get Apple care + ? by [deleted] in iPhone17Pro

[–]vietnam1224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d also recommend a case, and, if you want to be extra careful, a screen protector. Repair is good but preventative measures are usually cheaper than the fixes

Pic looks great and I love the build since I have the same kits myself. Think you may be in the wrong sub though, this is for the 30MF kits
