On this gloomy, rainy day, I decided to clean up my build manuals and place them on my clear files.

Then, I wondered - how many kits did I actually build since August 2025? So I counted my manuals one by one and realized that I have already built 56 kits! 57 if I am going to count non-Robotime one.

I can’t believe that I reached such a number already! I started with one Super Creator kit

Then explored Rowood flowers

Then confidently built my first Wooden Mechanical Puzzle - the Dream Gift Factory.

This made me realize just how much I’ve grown since joining this community. :heart: I’m incredibly grateful that I discovered a place that sparked a new passion in me and gave me the opportunity to meet wonderful friends from around the world. :globe_showing_americas:

So thankful for this amazing journey and all the memories, friendships, and creativity that came with it.

@Jill_Francisco I keep my manuals as well for this! And in case something comes up where I need to refer back to it. It’s a nice pile you got!

Wow, 56 kits since August 2025 is incredible! It’s amazing to see how far you’ve come, from your first Super Creator to tackling flowers and then your first mechanical puzzle. You’ve built more than just miniatures along the way,you’ve built skills, friendships, and so many wonderful memories. Here’s to the next 56! :heart:

That’s crazy! I can’t imagine completing that many kits. I not only keep the manuals, I also keep the extra pieces and the boxes. It’s starting to take up a lot of space in my room.

Such beautiful reflections. 57 is so impressive, and I love what you said about being confident building the dream gift factory! I have felt a bit nervous to start more complex kits, but maybe I need to just get started and give it a try.
