Setup and Assembly
This model kit requires assembly. No glue is typically needed for HG (High Grade) Bandai kits, as parts are designed for snap-fit assembly. A hobby knife or nippers are recommended for cleanly removing parts from the runners.
- Part Identification: Carefully identify each part on the runners using the included diagram (not provided in this digital manual, refer to physical kit instructions).
- Part Removal: Use nippers to carefully cut each part from its runner. Cut slightly away from the part first, then make a second cut closer to the part to minimize stress marks.
- Assembly Sequence: Follow the numerical sequence provided in the physical instruction booklet to assemble each weapon and unit. Pay close attention to the orientation of parts.
- Joint Parts: Utilize the included joint parts to connect the weapons and units to your AMAIM model. Ensure a secure fit.

Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity of your model kit.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Parts do not fit together. | Incorrect orientation or excess plastic (nubs) remaining from the runner. | Ensure parts are oriented correctly. Carefully trim any remaining plastic nubs with a hobby knife or file. Do not force parts. |
| A part is missing. | Accidental misplacement or manufacturing error. | Double-check the runners and work area. If a part is genuinely missing, contact customer support for assistance (refer to the Support section). |
| Joints are too loose. | Wear and tear, or slight manufacturing tolerance. | Apply a thin layer of clear nail polish or a specialized hobby joint tightener to the male peg and let it dry before reassembling. |
