Troubleshooting
Bricks not fitting together securely
Ensure bricks are pressed down firmly. Check for any debris on the studs or inside the connecting holes. Verify that the correct brick is being used according to the instructions.
Model feels unstable or parts fall off easily
Review the assembly steps for the section that feels loose. Ensure all connecting bricks are fully seated and properly interlocked. Some sections may require reinforcing with additional bricks if modifications were made.
Difficulty identifying a specific brick
Refer to the parts list in the instructions and compare the size, shape, and color. Sorting bricks beforehand can significantly speed up identification.
Instructions are unclear for a particular step
Examine the diagrams closely for piece orientation and connection points. Sometimes, zooming in on the illustration or looking ahead a few steps can provide context.
