if you don't get into anime girl kits, you don't need to be embarrassed about shit

you can instead point at the massive Perfect Grade Nu Gundam you eventually bought and proudly tell people, "I built this"

honestly, by that point, you probably will look into getting multiple 3d printers and thermoforming equipment (eg, draping softened plastic sheets over sculpted clay) and shit so you can make even bigger and more detailed models than anyone sells

by the end, you will start wondering just how difficult it would be to get permits to build a 1:1 Gundam statue
truly, it is a hobby worth pursuing (´人｀)

your cancer risk totally goes up due to the amount of industrial processing you are now exposing yourself to, but every good hobby does that ヽ(´∇`)ノ
