>>6370990>We've tried to help them legitimize the gunpla categories, but we can only go so far because we eventually hit a wall of "don't give a shit about your robot toys".In a bi-annual local modeling convention run and attended primarily by old military and car modelers, this won not only the best in sci-fi category, but people's choice and best in show.
I've found that its not just the lack of interest in gunpla or mecha models, its more that they don't give a rats ass about anything without obvious effort put into it.
But don't mention anything anime girl related to them or they have a fit about it because they hate them with a passion.
