Troubleshooting

Carefully reattach the part using a small amount of model glue suitable for plastics or die-cast. Ensure alignment before the glue sets.

For display models, minor imperfections are sometimes present due to the manufacturing process. Avoid attempting to repaint unless you have significant modeling experience, as this could devalue the collectible.
