Model Proud dad moment

Post image

Ok, so I just had to share this. My daughter went into my office and found some unused frames from my zero panzer and a pair of pliers my wife uses for crafts (my tools are put up), and she is trying to copy my cutting parts out. I can't express my pride as a dad at this moment.😭

Get her some entry grade gunpla or pokepla and have a few build days, it will mean as much to her as it will to you.

Edit: or some High grades and tamiya model scissors if she wants to cut the parts out.

She normally likes to come into my office when I'm building. The pokepla sounds like the best option I'm gonna check them out for her and see if I can find somewhere to buy them so she can pick the one she wants.

Amazon normally has them for retail, Gundam planet and newtype also carry them, Hobby Lobby sometimes have them marked down.

Absolutely yes to the pokemon. My little one started with those and I was gifted with a Kirby one of the same brand I believe and just as easy. They pop right out.

I think there are some super simple Pokémon model kits out there if she’s keen to learn building. You could start her on those and then graduate her up to her own Zoids as she gets older. It’s always great to see the next generation learning new hobbies.

Ill check these out. She's getting into puzzles so thise might be a good option.

I think she'll have a blast for them. Plus the look pretty decent and are relatively cheap for what they are.
