Setup and Assembly
Before starting, ensure all 461 building parts are present. The parts are made from non-toxic, high-quality plastic. Follow the illustrated instructions provided in the box for step-by-step assembly.
Assembly Steps:
- Unpack Components: Carefully open the packaging and sort the building parts. It is recommended to organize pieces by type or color to facilitate assembly.
- Follow Illustrated Guide: Refer to the detailed, illustrated instruction booklet included with your set. Each step clearly shows which pieces to use and how to connect them.
- Secure Connections: Ensure all connections are firm. While the pieces are designed for a secure fit, some may require gentle pressure.

Operating the Water Dragon
The Ninja Water Dragon is designed with several articulated and movable features for dynamic play and display.
Movable Features:
- Head and Jaw: The dragon's head and jaw are posable, allowing for various expressions and attack poses. Adjust them manually to your desired position.
- Tail and Legs: The tail and legs are articulated, enabling a range of stances and movements.
- Wings and Leg Movement Mechanism: A special mechanism allows the wings and legs to move simultaneously. Locate the button/gear on the dragon's back. Turning this mechanism will cause the wings to flap and the legs to swing, simulating flight or walking.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your building set, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away dust. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the assembled model or individual pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent discoloration or warping.
- Handling: Handle the model with care, especially when adjusting movable parts, to prevent accidental detachment of pieces.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during assembly or operation, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Missing Pieces: Double-check the packaging and surrounding area. If a piece is genuinely missing, please contact customer support with details of the missing part.
- Pieces Not Fitting: Ensure you are using the correct pieces as indicated in the instruction manual. Some connections may require firm, but not excessive, pressure. If a piece consistently does not fit, verify its orientation.
- Stiff Mechanism: If the wing/leg movement mechanism feels stiff, re-examine the assembly steps for the internal gears and connecting rods. Ensure no pieces are misaligned or obstructing the movement. Avoid forcing the mechanism, as this may cause damage.
- Model Instability: If the dragon feels unstable on its display stand, ensure all connections to the stand are secure and that the model's weight is evenly distributed.
