an amazing cleaning tool all collecters should have

[xueyue2]

I don't know about you guys, dust on figures is a big headache for me. I tried blow the dust myself or use paint brush, or canned air duster to clean my toys, none of them work really well, until I found out wireless air duster.


Bought yesterday, just got it today, in 5 minutes, 20 figures (including huge combiners and ROTF leader Optimus prime which has being collecting dust for more than 10 years) on my desk all cleaned up, I'm very impressed and feel the urge to recommend this useful tools to follow collectors.

Thanks for the heads up on this little device!

Always good to read a review from someone who's directly used the product as well

So you used this as well? What's your feeling?



For me, as long as it won't break down in the next 1 year, I will be happy. This is very useful, as important to me as the "future" (or pledge).

How much was it?

around $50 to $70. I paid mine for $64, so roughly a voyager class one, I felt it should be a leader class considering what it can do.



Initially I thought I can find cheaper price on Taobao, but after search on Taobao, similar one also around 250 RMB to 300 RMB, which is almost $60 before shipping, then I just bought one from amazon and got it next day.

I built a dust box as blowing the dust only means it's in the air to breathe in and fall back down on the figures in a short time.

Don't mean to be a Debbie Downer but it's just what it is.

True indeed.
What's a dust box if I may ask?

It's a box that is enclosed to hold the dust in it.

It's floor is a double floor so that there holes in it (sides and back) that you connect a vacuum to in a connection hole in the middle of those floors, so that it sucks the dust through the holes. It's made with transparent (vinyl) to see what you're doing.

The "door" is large enough to put the items and your hands so to get the dust off (I use a large paintbrush), and the suction creates a negative pressure (so it pulls inwards as intended).



Just in case someone is curious, yes it was tested using smoke and it works as described.

Is this the K3 Pro on Amazon.ca? It's marked down 20% off to $63.99 right now.

Would probably work better than using a wet towel and wiping off my figures every so often. Though I can borrow my dad's heavy air compressor to deal with dust build-up in my PCs.
