What piece of kit or setup represents the pinnacle of your hobby/profession?
Even if it's not expensive, Is there a high quality item every serious enthusiast owns?
Or maybe it's a highly prized holy grail item you'd give your right arm for.
Is there something you've had an eye on for a while and you're just waiting for an excuse to treat yourself?

I do gunpla building, and the one thing you see most builders, regardless of level, immediately want to go for, is a pair of good single-bladed nippers. Usually the holy grail are the God Hand japanese brand nippers, as they perform a very clean and close cut to remove the plastic nubs off the parts, but other less expensive options exist. Sure, there are many different ways to deal with the plastic nubs that stay when you cut off a part from the runner, but the one tool almost everyone goes for, are those nippers. Usually, to the point of keeping two pairs, one to clip parts off the runner, and one just to cut off the nubs.
What kits would you say are the most satisfying to put together? I'm new, I've built a few, and love the hobby (though I've barely seen any of the show).
Well, I have mostly built just HG kits so far, but they're all so much fun to put together I can't really pick one. I think I'm gonna go with the Origin Zaku II, and the Moon Gundam.
Well damn, now I need to go down a gunpla building rabbit hole on YouTube.
