How to Cut Gundam Toys


There are 3 types of cutters (nippers) within everyone's price range: 


1.  Lower Class and cheapest can be found at your neighborhood tool stores.  You can also use nail clippers.

2.  Middle Class are the Gundam Planet nippers. 

3.  High class nippers, aka the Godhand nippers, can be found on Hobbylink Japan or Amazon.


Cutting Tips


1.  Give enough space between the actual part and the gate (tree or spruce).  

2.  Have a small cup to catch small pieces that you cut off once they are out of the gate.

3.  Use the flat side of the nipper to cut against the part.  That way, you get the least amount of nub marks.
