Advice on Kotobukiya model kits.

Just a little trick I've found, you can use nail cutters. The shape kind of lets you trim the excess plastic right off. You can just sand it or rub it against something rough if you want to nub it down some more o3o

Hobby knives would be a lot better in my opinion, so long as you don't force it too much (too much force would damage the part).

Still waiting on my C98E2 Ninebreaker, should've picked EMS.
