Damn, Carlos! This kit is kinda the holy grail over here in the EU. Sold out for years now like all other 1/12 scale figures by Bandai.
Would kill for getting my hands on one of those Death Troopers...
Cheers,

Re: Latest Acquisitions - pt.3
I built the Mandolorian by Bandai and it was AMAZING. No glue needed and you really don't even have to paint. I did both and it was the best fitting kit I have ever laid my hands on. I don't have the Storm Trooper, but I need one.

Re: Latest Acquisitions - pt.3
Don't waste your money on this one. It is variable speed, different sanding heads and different grits and shapes of sand paper with a sticky side. Two big problems though. One is that it doesn't sand very well and when you put pressure down the power bogs down. Two, is that the button to change the power settings is also the off/on button. I've had problems with it not working. At one point I couldn't get it to turn off. I'm not the only one that's had problems with the button either.BlackSheep214 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 18, 2025 5:41 pm Whatever sanding needed. Sometimes it’s better than doing it by hand. I like the fact it’s variable speed. Slow, medium, fast and whatever speed you want in between. Comes with sandpaper sheets and a variety of sanding heads. I can position sanding heads horizontally or vertically.
Not familiar with Medic’s sander brand. He didn’t mention if it’s a variable speed type, variety of sanding heads, sandpaper sheets, etc…
Even my Dremel is a variable speed type.

Re: Latest Acquisitions - pt.3
Mine I can dial it to really fast or set on real slow.. I don't even.have to put pressure on it to get the job done.
The Dremel I use on certain situations. Well worth my money on both tools.
I have more head inserts than.what you have, Mike. I can order sticky back sandpaper of different grits if need be. I'm happy with what mine came with. Since I've had the David Union Pencil Sander 3 years ago, I just used up the first two sandpaper sheets.

Re: Latest Acquisitions - pt.3
Now the grinding motor tool is great! You can get a universal chuck that enables you to use anything from Dremel and such.
