Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly requires standard plastic model kit tools, including a pair of side cutters, a hobby knife for cleaning up nubs, and plastic cement for certain sections to ensure structural integrity. Since the parts come in pre-colored plastic, you can build it straight out of the box for a basic look; however, for a weathered or show-accurate finish, you will need acrylic or enamel paints and high-quality brushes. To care for your completed model, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent plastic yellowing and use a soft, dry brush to gently remove dust from the intricate leg and sensor assemblies periodically.
