So eariler this morning I got around to unboxing my Black Rock Shooter figma.

I had an X-Acto knife this time just to be prepared in case I had to cut through lots of adhesive tape like that goddamn Nendoroid Reimu. Surprisingly, this time I had to cut through very little tape (though that X-Acto was p. handy when opening the stands' bag, and it will come in handy again in the future). Putting it on its base was also much easier than that Nendoroid, and I even took a little bit of time to give it a nice pose before taking off to work.

Included was a set of clenched hands in order to hold her sword and her big-ass cannon, but I tried to remove her right hand and holy shit I just couldn't. I was scared by that Nendoroid whose neck snapped with like zero effort whatsoever and thus I always ended up chickening out when I tried to pull its hand. Maybe it's a little sturdier and it takes more effort to pull the hand off? In any case, I'll probably leave it like that for now, maybe once I return home I'll try again.

And maybe I'll also get some flat-tipped pliers, my parents use mine all the time and I never know where they left them. Not normal pliers, that would leave a nasty-ass mark on the plastic.
