do you leave the nubs on the tips of the v fin when building gunpla or are you normal

@Nine every so often i see gunpla pics online and the nubs are still on
keeping them does make them less fragile and less likely to stab someone, so theres that. honestly it also looks kinda cool >_>

@pup_hime @Nine I googled to get some pictures and ppl call them "safety flags", apparently they're only on the models with lower age ratings

@noiob @Nine yea i figure theyre mostly so that you dont poke yourself/someone with it

@pup_hime @Nine yea definitely, they do look kinda cool tho, I would be tempted to leave them on bc I don't wanna break something
