@88-nagato-88 Hey Nagato you posted a comment on episode 173 asking about what other tools you could use instead of buying a pair of nippers to cut out the parts from the runners. Well a sharp pair of surgical scissors would work but you could always go to your local store and buy all the tools you would need from the beauty care section of the store since you can get nippers(Not nail clippers) for cutting out parts, finger nail filer for smoothing out gate marks that are left on the part, Q-Tips for cleaning part after adding the panel lining, Tweezers for holding tiny parts and applying the decals. etc.

But if you want I can make a complete list of all the tools that can be used in place of really expensive or hard to find hobby tools. And I’ve posted a list of all the tool that I’d used to build my Gundam kit on my page.

P.S. if you want to paint your kits you should first wash the parts in water that is 25% hot and 75% cold water since 100% Hot will warp/melt the type of plastic that the parts are molded from. Reason why you should do this is just before BanDai goes to make the parts the molds are sprayed with this type of releasing agent the allows the freshly molded parts to be removed from the molds which some of the releasing agent may still be left behind on the parts.
