Due to the complexity and the inclusion of upgrade parts, this kit is recommended for intermediate to advanced model builders.
Check part numbers against the instructions. Ensure no excess plastic (flash) is present. Gently sand or trim misaligned parts as needed.
Use fine-tipped tweezers and a cutting mat. Consider using a specialized tool for bending and applying photo-etched parts.
Ensure each link is properly seated and the connecting pins are securely attached. Avoid excessive stress on the tracks once assembled.
Apply decals to a smooth, glossy surface. Use decal setting solutions to improve adhesion and reduce silvering.
This is a plastic model kit that requires assembly and painting. The kit is designed to be built as a static display model. It is not a toy and contains small parts that could be a choking hazard.
Assembly: Requires hobby-grade plastic cement and model paints (not included). Follow the included instruction manual carefully, paying close attention to the order of assembly and part orientation. Sanding and minor adjustments may be necessary for a perfect fit.
Compatibility: This kit is a standalone product. It is compatible with other 1:35 scale model accessories and figures if the builder chooses to create a diorama.
Care: Once assembled and painted, the model should be kept away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to preserve the paint finish and structural integrity. Dust gently with a soft brush or cloth.
