Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and cleanliness of your LEGO set, follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Cleaning: To clean LEGO bricks, wipe them with a damp cloth. For a deeper clean, you can wash them by hand in lukewarm water (up to 40°C / 104°F) with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not use hot water, harsh chemicals, or put them in a washing machine or dishwasher, as this can damage the plastic.
• Storage: Store your LEGO set in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and warping. A sealed container or a dedicated storage bin can help keep pieces organized and free from dust.
• Handling: Handle the assembled model with care, especially the posable joints of the T. rex skeleton, to avoid accidental disassembly or damage.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during the building or playing experience, consider the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Missing Pieces: Double-check all packaging and sorting areas. Sometimes small pieces can be overlooked. If a piece is genuinely missing, contact LEGO Customer Service for assistance.
• Difficulty Connecting Bricks: Ensure that bricks are aligned correctly and apply firm, even pressure. If a brick is particularly stubborn, try wiggling it slightly as you push.
• Model Instability: Review the instruction steps carefully to ensure all connections are secure and no steps were missed. Loose connections can lead to an unstable model.
• Instructions Unclear: The included instruction manual is designed to be clear and visual. If a step is confusing, try looking at the next few steps to understand the overall goal, or re-examine the previous steps to ensure accuracy.
