  • Infra-Red Power Blaster Interaction: The included Federation Droid Fighter features an infra-red power blaster. Aim the blaster at specific targets on the starship to simulate "blasting" off panels, setting off alarms, lights, and explosion sounds. Refer to the starship's surface for marked interaction points.

Playset Features

  • Opening Panels: The starship features multiple panels that open to expose a large interior playset area. Gently lift or slide these panels as indicated by arrows or grooves.
  • Removable Escape Vessel: The Escape Pod vehicle can be detached from its bay. It includes a firing missile mechanism. To fire, load the missile into the launcher and press the button.
  • Figure Compatibility: The playset is designed for use with 3.75-inch tall Star Wars action figures, including the exclusive R2 action figure provided.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Wipe the playset with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Storage: Store the playset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. If storing for extended periods, remove batteries to prevent leakage.
