About this deal

For those of us that are in the market for some new nippers, it’s important to understand the sphere of possibility is so much more expansive than it ever has been. One of the more popular types of nippers sweeping the market by storm is a single blade cutting edge. Gundam Plastic models, Gundam Plamo, or Gunpla (ガンプラ, Ganpura)[1] are model kits depicting the mecha machinery and characters of the fictional Gundam multiverse by Bandai. These kits became popular among mecha anime fans and model enthusiasts in Japan and nearby Asian countries beginning in the 1980s. Gundam modeling spread in the 1990s with North America and Europe being exposed to Gundam through television and manga. The name Gunpla derives from the phrase “Gundam plastic model”, since most kits are made of plastic. Along with the leather pouch, a small hand wrench is included. This is used to set the cut depth via a tiny set screw. IMPORTANT! Be sure to set this! If you don’t, you’ll apply too much pressure on the single blade and break the cutting edge….like I did. (photos later) Technozoids (テクノゾイド, Tekunozoido), or simply Zoids (ゾイド, Zoido), is a Japanese science fiction media franchise created by Tomy that feature giant robots (or “mecha”) called “Zoids”. A Zoid is essentially a large mechanical animal, with designs being based on animals; including dinosaurs, insects, arachnids and mythological creatures. The franchise started with a model-kit-based toy line and includes five main anime TV series (Chaotic Century, New Century, Fuzors, Genesis and Wild) as well as several video games and manga products

The difference between the cheap citadel nippers and these was like taking a breath of air, not realizing I had been holding it in. These were sharp, and thin, meaning I was able to get into way tighter spaces, and the cuts were WAY better. I immediately relegated the old nippers to cutting anything that wasn’t plastic. The LENX clippers were my mainstay for almost 18 months. The r/AdvancedGunpla subreddit aims to help inform, instruct, guide and share our different techniques and ideas. Hopefully allowing us all the opportunity to produce something better every kit! This does however present a potential for disaster. If you aren’t paying extra close attention to the cut before you make it, you may pinch into the model, causing very noticeable damage. This can be averted by cutting a couple millimeters away, then using your hobby knife to clean up the remaining nub. I personally love these nippers and think they’re worth the money over other offerings. Complaints about the blades being offset haven’t read the instructions since that slight offset is take into account when you angle your cut. I love how they cut and have withstood over 60 kits of varying brands now.for how delicate it is you would expect it to come in a jeweled silk lined box with engravings on the blade like I've seen some Bob Kramer knives or at least what the Dspiae 3.0s come in and the cover it comes with. Nope. The major advantage of these clippers is the fact they don’t pit, pinch or otherwise damage the model during the cutting phase. Pros the blade is as thin as paper, this is usually a good thing but it increases brittleness, thus why I use it only for final cutting of the nubs

Ultra light weight, makes me question if its made of titanium feels as if you are holding (*in Ned Flanders voice* ) nothing at all. As I said before, the company is based in Shanghai, and they got their start by making small pliers and other metal forged tools.
