The catastrophe continues. For some reason part of the chest snapped when I went to gently rotate the torso slightly. Nothing a little Blu-Tack couldn't fit, but good grief. Sanded down the stand peg to fit, too. It had to be in 'punch you with a plane' pose, man. #Gunpla

@batshaped.bsky.social was the first person I thought about when I saw these. 🤔

I'm not sure how I keep pulling back muscles. This time it's way up in the northeast portion. The problem is I can't really feel the pain back there. I feel it in the front and when I breathe. But it's definitely -in- the back, as I can poke the exact spot that's hurting and it stops in front.

So basically my rewards points are gone and any time I want pizza now I have to do it as a guest, which means manually re-entering our name and finding the store location. This is so needlessly frustrating. I'm ready for today to be over but I have half a day left to go...

Time to decide if I'm doing decals for it, I suppose. It would all be generics, and I'd need to mask the clear bits. Seems a bit much work. May just stick it on a stand in the 'punching you with a plane' pose. #Gunpla

I have a truckload of issues with Spider-Man 2, but at least it knew to open with a big high-energy setpiece to act as your tutorial segment. Undertale is like "lol this sign teaches you how to read signs, which you had to already know to read the sign!!!"

The most ill-conceived tie-in product I've ever personally seen. I bought a box immediately. They knew what they were doing.
Also it sounds like something Enid would get bonus points for achieving. Good lord.

Padding the jigsaw puzzle count with some of these small cereal puzzles. 25, 26, and 27 out of 171. There are three more in the box. Gonna be some of the last that get done in our current house...

Masking this is gonna be such a pain... maybe I should've waited to add the clear parts 'til after decals?
Or maybe I just don't do decals on this one. I dunno. Haven't decided yet. #Gunpla

Body, arms, and rifle. Masking this thing's gonna be annoying, but I've really enjoyed the build so far. In contrast with the elbow joints on Chuchu's Demi Trainer, these are rock solid. EG tech seems way nicer than HG tech for some reason. See also: No eye stickers. It's all parts. #Gunpla

Yeah, that's as processed as those flags are gonna get with my shaky hands. V-fin flags are annoying on a good day. I dunno if it's because it's an Entry Grade or what, but these seemed extra thick. Feel like I'm gonna snap the antenna when I have to de-flag and sand the thing. #Gunpla

Cute :3
Cute and fairly big! He definitely fills up the whole of your hand. No catastrophes during building but I did fumble my card sleeves when I went to process the box top and had to pick all those up. Also lookit the easter eggs on the inside of his face!

This set off some kinda weird decal PTSD in me.
From Plasmo's latest video on YT on a model car kit. The hell kinda page is this, it looks like some kinda abstract math puzzle I'm too dumb to solve.

So... yeah. Everything's kinda hazy right now, since we don't know when either move will happen. And that sucks! We dislike uncertainty at the best of times, and when it surrounds moves, that's even worse. But I'll get us through it. I'm stubborn. This is what I'm here for, after all!

Gwen stalled hard on this puzzle. One of the 171 our late grandmother had around still. This is 24 of 171. She'd only gotten one other puzzle done this year. I decided to finally take matters into my own hands and advance this for her, too. I'll pick out and start the 25th soon.

The quick-set cement wasn't enough to get the shield into its hand, snapping back off when I tried. Luckily it can still plug into the back, so I decided it got to hold both weapons. Still gotta do nose/wrist cleanup, and I'm painting the Core Fighter, but otherwise this little guy's done. #Gunpla

Amateur hour continues, as I made a rookie mistake and cut the handle to the shield off. Had to use Quick Set Cement to fix it. Really just highlights how I need actual modeling cement or at least some proper superglue. Also got the Core Fighter prepped for whatever painting it'll need... #Gunpla
