3.1. What's Included:

• 130 nanoblock pieces required to build the Psyduck model.
• Detailed step-by-step instruction sheet.

If any parts are missing or damaged, please refer to the "Support & Warranty" section for assistance.

4. Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps carefully to assemble your nanoblock Pokémon Psyduck model. It is recommended to work on a clean, well-lit surface to prevent loss of small pieces.

4.1. Preparation:

1. Unpack all contents from the kit.
2. Carefully separate the nanoblock pieces by color and shape if desired, to facilitate easier building.
3. Review the instruction sheet thoroughly before starting.

4.2. Building Process:

The instruction sheet provided in the kit contains visual, step-by-step diagrams for assembly. Each step illustrates which blocks to add and where to place them. Pay close attention to the orientation of the blocks.

• Start from the Base: Most nanoblock models begin with a foundational layer.
• Layer by Layer: Build the model upwards, adding blocks layer by layer as indicated in the instructions.
• Precision is Key: Due to the micro size of the blocks (as small as 4mm x 4mm x 5mm), precision is important. A pair of tweezers (not included) may be helpful for placing very small pieces.
• Check Your Work: Periodically compare your progress with the instruction diagrams to ensure accuracy.

5. Display and Handling

Once assembled, your nanoblock Psyduck model is ready for display. Here are some tips for handling and placement:

• Display Surface: Place the model on a stable, flat surface to prevent accidental falls.
• Handling: Handle the model gently, especially when moving it, to avoid dislodging pieces.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause colors to fade over time.
• Keep Away from Heat: Extreme heat can deform plastic blocks.
