you didn't even mention the best nippers on the market, your own teeth
Have you ever been fisically hurt by a comment?
Yeah, you get to really feel the taste of your gunpla
thebuggerathome use your fingers
And if you are feeling hungry eat your runners.
You people are degenerates. This is a crime.
occasionally, i'll use nippers for some parts, but for you to have the audacity to not use an 86.37 dollar sword from the native american national reserve in cherokee north carolina is baffling
I built the RG unicorn with nothing but nail clippers. It was my first kit, and i do not regret any of the poor choices I've made while building it
Admittedly having never used them, I get the impression that those Precision Sprue Cutters™ were made for things like car or military models (of the sort generally made by AMT, Tamiya or Revell) which generally don't use the hardest or best-quality plastic compared to Bandai. I wager they'd slice right through; proper nippers certainly do.
I agree.
whatever you build with is one's own personal choice.
It took me like like 6 kits a mix of MGS Sds and HGs cutting with probably one of the worst options a slightly resharped pocket knife, until i went and got a pair of of mr hobby nippers in a creos mr hobby basic starter kit been using those duel blade cutters for a while now and are a decent pair of nippers.
Would i want a upgrade eventually? Certainly. Do i have the need to upgrade right this very moment? not at all gotten comfortable building the way i am now and learning the hobby at my own pace.
You MUST TRY DSPIAE : Single Blade Nipper 2.0 i think its better then god hand plus its cheaper like 20 bucks cheaper
Over the year I've been addicted to Gunpla, I've gone from using literally a box cutter and some twisting, to some no-name £4 nippers and an x-acto blade, to Tamiya's £15 Modeller's side cutter, definitely an advocate for spending SOMETHING on nippers to start with, it'll make your first builds much neater.
Precision cutters are for small part with little room on the sprue to use larger nippers, they're really not meant for general use cutting. I build scale models, warhammer miniatures, gundam and dragon ball models and have like 4 sets of nippers for different situations
I use Citadel nippers made for Warhammer minis.
God hands are great but if you want want to save half of the price and still have quality nippers check out valtcan nippers there pretty good
Interesting, I’ve had other people mention that brand in my Discord. Guess I’ll check em out for a part 3 to this haha.
Some plastics have glass fibers in them for strength, this is going to wear down any blade over time, so they will need to be replaced occasionally regardless of quality.
Yeah well styrene doesn't.
This is what I use,

ive heard the song at the end before and yet i dont remember the vaporartist or track, link?
I just use hobby knives to cut stuff off my runners...
I would have liked to see a test with grey or black plastic to see the stress marks.
Some how my GP nippers broke. I don’t even know how it happened. All I did was cut a part out and the blade chipped off.
It's characteristic of tool steel, they're very hard (keeps an edge well) but prefer to snap rather than bend under stress, especially with the thin blades on GP's and godhands. Even a small chip on the edge can cause it to eventually crack when you cut with that portion.
I mean to be fair, some of your builds are incredibly terrible for someone with a gunpla channel. But i always thought that was the magic. Bad. Gunpla. it works
i've seen other youtubes with higher sub counts who have pretty bad builds too
It's beyond me how you've managed to completely ruin the Tamiya cutters within just 1 year.
he probably was using it on the sprues instead of the gates. Either way I'm horrified by how they've ended up.

Snips
I don't understand why you're using a flush cut side cutter away from the part. why is this a common technique? if you place the the flush side on the part in most cases it will cut off the part with little to no nub remaining. why is this a thing in Gunpla? I don't have this issue.......I think off camera you snug that shit up! you're just being acceptable. try it everyone!
Coming from GW models, it reduces the stress on the model. I have had smooth parts crease and bend slightly as i used the flush side of the cutter against the part. Cutting with a nub remaining and using a hobby knife reduces the chance of that happening.
What he said. I also don't mind spending a bit of extra time sanding and scraping the tiny little bits. Its kinda relaxing.
wow can't even think of an original idea, have to rip off talented youtubers like badgunpla
push the parts out of the runners by hand, then use a small hand torch to melt the nubs and smooth them back down
I tried that, the plastic sublimated. It just disappeared
@@true_neutral3378 it's because you forgot to sand it!
A grey plastic would show a little better brother but good breakdown regardless.
Everyone insult Badgunpla! He will put your comment in a video!
I think its fascinating that a niche franchise like gundam has such gate keeping, hate mongering, elitists. I was once in a discord group and I was met with a huge amount of backlash for saying I don't think Iron Blooded Orphans is the worst. So I'm glad to hear there are also people who will hate on people for building their own plastic toys. Its beautiful irony that a series whose core message is often about compassion and understanding, has a large outspoken group of elitist pricks
Chad Connelly I don’t think it’s “elitist” to not like a show.
I been met with some of that with the whole i dont like non uc suits thing. However most of the community is respectful. The ones that are not are laughed at. There is a very good reason /r advanced gunpla is its own thing. Also where is this compassion and understanding message coming from? Thats not a thing except in a few au shows.
@@holeefuk7142 no, its elitist to start an argument stating ibo is the worst gundam, even though seed exists, and even though wing is pretty much the same
@@qazwer333 maybe I've watched everything wrong but most gundam stories revolve around "if we could just have enough empathy war wouldn't happen" and "people of different nationalities (earthnoids, spacenoids, martians, etcetera) deserve the same rights". The whole point of newtypes is that they're super empathetic! Maybe I'm wording my statement wrong, sorry in advance.
Chad Connelly what?!? Seed is better then IBO! Is that a “elitist” thing to say?
Cutting technique is incorrect:
-Delete the video
-Data is corrupted
-Learn to cut
-Remake video
So godhand is made by glorious nippon steel folded over 1000 times?
Dude they're cutters, not katanas (also japanese steel needs to be folded over because its utter crap out of the forge)
saverio sassetti oh shit I can finally do this: woooosh
@@niconicokms1424 its r/wooosh dammit get it right
@@npc6817 you can still just say woooosh
@@autismo721 you all have no respect for our old traditions. Form should be followed. Also, r/wooosh.
For removing the part from the runner i use generic nippers.
I use the godhand for the second cut.
This way my first godhand hasnt aged a bit after 3 years
That’s how mine has been so far! I use the GP snips for the first cut, the god hands for the second. Works great.
@@BadGunpla1 I do the exact same. GP Nippers to remove from the runner, Godhands to flush-cut. Never use good nippers on hard clear plastic though!
@@BadGunpla1 my hands are good for making models
Holy shit you just gave me an epiphany
popping parts out of the sprue with your bare hands because you haven't got nippers yet builds character
Giving flashbacks to me at like 12 building my first few without nippers and destroying my fingers lol
Tbh I separate polycaps like that: just turn the part with 2 fingers couple of times and that's it 😁
Where's the shill?
Badgunpla Discord 24/7
well my 10€ faller snippers i got with my second kit is still sharp after 2 years worth of gunpla building, my first model i cut with some tongs i found in my garage
just use your hands
Ironically that's how my first kit went and there were almost no noticeable nub marks on the non undergated parts
I will say Tamiya's more durable, double-bladed side cutters seem MUCH more durable and better for general use in addition to a single-bladed design like the Godhands. The double-blades are good for bigger sprues or cutting bigger sections for customs and the like.
Regarding the pitting on the Tamiya pointed ones: if it's a high-carbon steel (not stainless) which it has to be for the edge performance you want, you might want to apply a bit of oil to the blade to keep it from oxidizing. The Gundam Planet (and I believe the Godhands) have an outer surface that's protected but I imagine once that's worn away, it's hardened tool steel underneath which could also do with some oil for protection.
The off brand nippers just has a thin piece of metal to act like a spring. I have this nipper and the thin piece of metal just broke off after many times of use. Now I have the nipper sitting somewhere collecting dust.
FMA:B IS the best version :)
Wrong
Starting off with nail clippers, and graduating to godhand was a massive difference. having lost my gh during a move I have had little love lost using a flush cutter for small electronics. its a fraction of the price and operates largest the same.
Also the single blade often left asymmetric nubs on my parts (towards the non-cutting edge) so the price tag doesn't sit well with me since most everything should have a once over with a craft knife
I search for this bc i dont have the normal side cutter for gunpla my shipping from china is gonna take 20days.. kill me
Walmart WALMART W A L M A R T
WAAAAAAAALL MAAAAAAAAAAAAART!
boy you over here sounding like jake paul.
HGs you can build with nail clippers and your nails
Putting those elitist on blast. Damn Jason, you savage. lol
jesus christ what the hell did you do to your tamiya's....
Have to admit I was a little confused that you decided to cut from above the plate when you were doing those tests, it looked awkward. Cutting from below allows you to see what you're doing and is generally more comfortable... IMO Also better for showing on camera, no one needs to see your hand when the nipper's cut is what you're testing.
I personally prefer cutting from above, I have big hands and trying to hold the tool while snipping from below is really hard for me
Don’t you talk shit on gritty. He’s a national treasure
forget nippers, just twist the parts out of the runner!
oohhhhhhhhhh praise pipo, my pants were clean until he started cutting with his God Hand
Great video! Love your style bro
i subbed the moment you told the truth about FMA Brotherhood
Thank you for having TASTE
Ill have you know that gritty is great
>not including superior British citadel or army painter brand pliers (snips, whatever the fuck you want to call them)
No experience with whatever the second ones are but Citadel snips are woefully overpriced for what they do. And they’re huge. Don’t own a pair to include here though.
Bad Gunpla yeah, they are horrifically expensive. Work pretty well though. Durable too
This might be my slight noobish-ness (5 kits built, all HG because they're the most affordable) but I feel like spending around $50 for what are basically glorified wire cutters isn't a great investment. Because you see on r/gunpla where people's nippers have been damaged. So, cheap Wal-Mart nippers work for me, because, well, they're effective and durable.
Geez, what the Heck did u cut with those Tamiya? Metal?? There only a year old? Are u sure? My son and I both have a pair and they've built many many models all different grades. They look great, like new. Maybe take at easy on your tools. Tamiya still my favorite. Have GP and GH side cutters. But the tamiya are just a great side cutters.☺ great video. Very informative.
Jokes on you, for my childhood first Plastic Model (White Gale from Bomberman), I used scissors without thinking twice
Odd that your Tamiya failed so badly, mine work really well. I have found that cutting near the from 1/3 of the blade gives me the cleanest cut, but if you have a pair of Godhands, I suggest you use those old Tamiya nippers to cut your pasta before you put them into the pot. Great video!
This made me remember my first snipper .. my nail clippers .... And the kitchen knife I use to clean the little parts ..... 🤣 I evolved over time and got one of those 98 cents knife at home depot 🤣🤣
Well, I use a pair of Knipex 78 03 125 made for fine electronics (use them for that as well), also Welleman scalpell (kit).
First kit I just used a hobby knife so it had some ugly bun marks, I’ve since gotten some decent hobby town cutters that work pretty well
My snips are the ones i use to build vape coils. they work so well. they cost 2 dollars
my first few gunpla were bought without the foresight of having the tools to properly build them. you see, i had never built any models before, and my first one happened to be the high grade unicorn gundam. my mom had an exacto knife, and i used those to cut the pieces out. i didn't use any sawing motions or anything. i just pushed down on the part that i was going to cut really hard. and then used the knife to shave off the nub.
I have to disagree with you on the nail clippers, I have used them since my first kit and never had any significant issue. the only inconvenience is that they have some troubles getting into tight spots, so I modded a pair to be shaped more like the precision spru cutter but with the added leverage and now they are just as good as any double blade cutters (altough, after hearing of godhands drop in price I am far more inclined to give those a try)
Pfft cowards use a metal wire cutter to cut the arm of the sprew then wiggle it up and down to take it off the base like me.
If there are some flash marks from snipping a part, I just put some paint or marker over it. Problem solved.
Or you can go to your local games workshop place and buy their snips which are P good
The first time I got a Gunpla
I used some big ass scissors
I just use the scissors on my swiss army knife. Comes with a file, too.
This is really a great video. Masterful, I applaud you, sir!
I started building gunpla back in june i think and have been using wire cutters to get the part off then chop off the nub with an exacto knife or file it away with nail files and Emory boards
Might be about time to dump the cash....
If you're still looking, the tamiya 35 dollar ones are around 20 on Amazon now. For me, they've been much better than the 2 super cheap ones I got in the beginning.
I'm aware they won't be my long term cutters, but I can't look down on 20 bucks to buy few months to build the rational (or delusion) it takes to drop 50 dollars on a pair of glorified snips.
What do you think about the Xuron brand? I've gotten two from them and they've served me very well. They usually go for 20 bucks for flush cuts.
Never heard of em. There are a LOT of brands out there unfortunately.
@@BadGunpla1 They're mostly designed for electronics, but they work great for more heavy duty cuts. I tend to make my initial cuts with the Xurons and then swap to my God Hands. If it's a reeeeally big part like the parts of an Action Base, I tend to just use the Xurons for all of it.
Wait, there are gunpla snobs?
Do a playlist on your favorite vaporwave tracks dad
@BadGunpla What’s that music track you played towards the end of your video
i know a lot of vaporwave and recognize the song but ill be damned if i knew who it was tho. but idt atting will work but ill try too @BadGunpla what was the song at the end? (atting doesnt seem to work)
I just use my cididel nippers.
Figures, JoJoHobbyNStuff is exclusive to North America. :/
Someday we'll figure out how to ship stuff to space for you.
...
Please dont hit earth with a giant metor.
How the hell do your Tamiya nippers look like that?
I wish I knew! They just really deteriorated after a few months. I’m not the only person I know that have this problem either. I know some people have been fine with theirs, but I can’t recommend inconsistently.
@12:57 GET SOME
This was great 👏🏼
Using white parts as an example isn't the best. That's one of the colors that hides nub marks the most.
Should've used blue, black or that really dark blue-ish black they use on stuff like Freedoms and Double-X's.
I agree, but it was the only part I had on hand with six spruces on a flat surface. I could have went to a hobby shop and bought something, but this operation runs on shoestrings.
What are u cutting with those Tamiya snips? I’ve had mine for over 2 years and they still work great. For reference, I do my first cut with the Tamiyas and then the nub with the god hands, then clean accordingly. Not trying to say ur analysis is wrong, or that the video sux (I really like ur videos) I guess I’m just saying I’m surprised at how short the Tamiyas lasted for u.
What I’ve found with the stamina snips is mostly “your mileage may vary”. I cut the same way and used those for my first cuts too. Some of my friends online have had them for a while, a couple others have had similar problems. It’s weird.
Bad Gunpla that is weird, must have been a bad batch, lol. Anyhoo, great video!!
God your sense of humor is awesome
Dear god THATS the flyers' mascot?!
So the nippers that everyone says is good to the point of meme status wins.
