I'm pretty excited, I ordered the Kobra X, along with 9kg of various colour filaments.

I'm wondering if I'm missing some stuff like bed glue, a scraping tool or things I haven't even thought of. What do I need in preparation?

You dont need a scraping tool. It'll only damage your bed. My printer came with one and it was a mistake to ever use it.

I never bought anything extra. Id say be patient for now, only spend after you realise there is a problem that needs fixing.

To add to this, I would actually 3d print a scraping tool. PLA isn't likely to damage the print bed like a metal one would.

That's a great idea, 3d printing upgrades to my 3d printer is my favourite use case for my printer!
