Good to see the show continue! I vote for Darth Maul, quite a different look from the other Star Wars movie realization designs. Keep up the good work guys
Finished my HG Hi-Nu and Gaeon combination! The idea is that the funnels have stopped working properly, so the pilot needed a way to use them without psychic ability.
Thanks for all the great content guys. Really cool to see all the live builds and new kits, but I especially appreciate the trade show coverage and interviews with model companies. Keep up the good work!
Great coverage! I’ve also seen photos where the SH Figuarts Avengers figures were shown. Do you guys at HLJ know if pre-orders for Hulk, Luke Skywalker, etc might open again?
Thanks as always for the great coverage! For folks like myself not in Japan, it’s really awesome to see a little of what it’s like to visit such a show.
Thanks for the replies guys. Teetee580, you were exactly right that I over-tightened it many times. Could you explain a bit more what the purpose of tightening and loosening it with the lubricant does? I understand what you are saying but I am still not exactly how that helps, since I’m not sure what specific problems to which parts my…[Read more]
Hi everyone, I am new to this group but I was hoping one of you seasoned veterans might be able to answer some of my questions. I’ve been using a Tamiya HG Trigger type for…
Hi Chan1990. I don’t have that type of airbrush, but looking at the photo off the nozzle it reminded me of an old car I worked on in the past. The wheel studs looked the same way as the thread on your nozzle. Those wheel studs where over torqued year in year out, changing from winter tires to summer tires. So it looks to me you over tightened the…[Read more]
He could also try a rather unconventional fix since it looks like the seal is also in pretty bad condition. Get a masking liquid. Put it in place of the seal tighten the noozle (some of the masking liquid would spill out. Let it cure, then gently remove the overspill. The connection is once again tight and the airbrush should work well once…[Read more]

@Jaberwak, that’s a great suggestion. What I use for example fitting oil lines for a turbo setup is liquid gasket. This is especially made to perform the task. Thanks for the input
You’re welcome.
In my opinion your problem is caused by miss engineering on Tamiya’s side. I mean, relying on thread to seal in stead of an o-ring or teflon ring…? I too remove the nozzle after every paint job for cleaning. And every time I clean it, there is some residue of paint in it. So I’m sure there is in yours too… Glad I didn’t order…[Read more]
