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!!!"

Today's #Gunpla pieces from the EG Build Strike Exceed Galaxy, and puzzle 28/171. Two more 100pc cereal puzzles to go!

Alright, take your pick.

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

Jeph after having little a Coke.

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!

Something simple up next.

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.
November 26, 2025 at 2:47 AM
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
November 22, 2025 at 9:38 AM
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

Imagine being this upset about queer fluff in a webcomic.

Also, I feel like you could just reply to that dude using this Achewood panel and it would work for every single thing he could possibly say:
November 20, 2025 at 1:56 AM
Hafta do a little cleanup around the nose, but my boy here's almost complete. Just needs his rifle and shield. And those'll be easy 'cause there are no more stickers! BB Senshi #200 is the only SD RX-78-2 I'm aware of with full plastic for the shield. #Gunpla
November 19, 2025 at 9:25 PM
Maybe I'm just our stubbornness then? I'm not sure. I'll get us through all of this crap, whatever happens. Still, I'm not a rock. I still have good days and bad days. I just try not to bother anybody on the bad ones.

Focus on tasks, get through another day, repeat.

How's a man who looks like THIS into women in any capacity whatsoever? This is the most 'gay power bottom' aura I've ever seen. Good lord. Rivals designs continue to cook. Gambit may draw me back. I dunno about his VA but Rogue's will be the TAS VA and that's rad as hell.
November 11, 2025 at 10:53 PM
'Foist'?!
November 10, 2025 at 7:11 AM
Don't talk to me about MGSD. BB Senshi range was doing inner frame stuff before MGSD was even dreamed up. #Gunpla

Falcon arrived, too. This is the ESB version. Pen for scale. My goal here is not to use a single sticker. Because there is no way any sticker that small actually stays down. My painting skills aren't amazing, but whatever I end up with will surely look nicer than nonstick stickers, right?
