Assembly Instructions

The Black Wargreymon (Amplified) model kit is designed for straightforward assembly, typically taking a few hours. Follow the detailed diagrams provided in the physical instruction booklet included with your kit. Below are general steps and tips for a successful build:

  1. Preparation: Carefully remove parts from the runners using hobby nippers to ensure clean cuts and prevent stress marks. Smooth any rough edges with a hobby knife or file if necessary.
  2. Main Body Assembly: Begin by assembling the torso, head, and waist sections. Pay close attention to the orientation of parts, especially the waist connector, ensuring the tapered part is pointing upwards.
  3. Limb Assembly: Assemble the arms and legs, connecting the various segments. The kit features good articulation, so ensure joints move smoothly after assembly.
  4. Wing Assembly: Attach the wing parts to the back. The kit's original gimmick allows the wings to expand. Familiarize yourself with this mechanism during assembly.
  5. Accessory Attachment: Assemble and attach the Dramon Killer weapons and effect parts as desired.
  6. Sticker Application: The kit includes foil seals for details such as the red 'X' marks on the chest and various gold accents. Use fine-tipped tweezers for precise application, as some stickers are small and require patience. Apply stickers carefully to avoid tearing or misplacement.

Posing Tip: Due to its design, the model can be somewhat top-heavy. For more stable and dynamic aerial poses, consider using a dedicated flight stand (sold separately). This will help maintain balance and prevent accidental falls.

Maintenance

To keep your Black Wargreymon model kit in optimal condition:

  • Cleaning: Gently dust the model regularly with a soft brush or compressed air to prevent dust buildup. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Storage: Store the model away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity to prevent discoloration or material degradation.
  • Handling: Handle the model by its main body parts rather than delicate accessories or thin protrusions to avoid accidental breakage.

Troubleshooting

  • Sticker Application Difficulty: If you find stickers difficult to apply, ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use fine-tipped tweezers to position them accurately. A small amount of water can sometimes help reposition stickers before they fully adhere.
  • Loose Joints: If any joints become loose over time, a thin layer of clear nail polish or hobby cement applied to the peg (and allowed to dry before reassembly) can increase friction.
  • Stability Issues: If the model struggles to stand in certain poses, adjust its center of gravity. As mentioned, a display stand can significantly improve stability for dynamic poses.
