For anyone wondering these were previously store exclusives. Make sure to nab a copper so I won’t want to later knowing it is nabbable again.
Idk how many of the above acid washes existed before but I guess around 10-12?

I’m really looking forward to what people say about that Copper Tankette. I had the standard Tankette and I imagine this extra weight makes this thing feel incredible.

I snagged a b grade acid wash. I reaaally wanted one before but money was tight. However I still am interested in what people have to say about the copper myself 👀

I think it’s such an interesting idea to have something so light that plays so well. It does exactly that but I have some motor control issues and while there is presence from the Tankette, it was not enough for me to track it well so I moved it on. I can only imagine that the extra weight added by the copper would pretty much bring the Tankette to perfection. Alas… they will all be gone before I have funds to try one. And; because I have to choose my purchases carefully, this one is priced at a point that’s very difficult for me to commit too. I’ve come to terms with not being able to try them all. 🤣

I agree, I myself have hyposensitivity so I wonder if the copper would do me better but for now ai’ll try throwing that b grade when I get it. ai am most curious about the copper, have been since seeing it release
