How to use

Assemble following the included illustrated instructions, sorting parts by shape and color to streamline the build. Work on a flat, well-lit surface and connect bricks firmly to ensure stable joins; some small components will require precise alignment to reproduce cockpit and wing bracing. No adhesive is necessary for assembly. After construction, place the model on a level surface or in a display case to protect fine details from dust and handling.

Recommendations

Use tweezers for small parts and a soft mat to avoid losing tiny elements during assembly. Keep the instruction booklet and any spare parts in a safe place. For long-term preservation, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store the model in a dust-free environment or display cabinet.
