2. What's Included

Your 4D Build Imperial Tie Fighter 3D Model Kit contains the following components:

• 6 Cardstock Sheets with 120 punch-out pieces
• 1 Tube of Glue
• Instruction Manual

The kit includes multiple sheets of pre-cut cardstock pieces, ready to be punched out for assembly.

3. Assembly Instructions

Follow the step-by-step instructions provided in the included manual to assemble your Imperial Tie Fighter model. No additional tools are strictly required, as the pieces are designed to punch out easily and interlock.

3.1 General Assembly Steps

1. Carefully punch out all 120 pieces from the 6 cardstock sheets.
2. Refer to the instruction manual for the correct sequence and orientation of pieces.
3. Interlock the pieces by aligning tabs with corresponding slots.
4. Use the provided glue to secure connections where indicated or for added stability. It is recommended to apply glue only after confirming the correct placement of pieces.
5. Assemble the display stand according to its specific instructions.

3.2 Assembly Tips

• While no tools are required, small tools such as tweezers, fine scissors, or a paperclip can assist in punching out smaller pieces or manipulating tabs for a cleaner build.
• The included glue is suitable, but standard craft glue can also be used. Apply sparingly.
• Avoid gluing pieces until you are certain of their correct position, as repositioning can be difficult once glue sets.

The durable cardstock pieces interlock to form the model, designed for easy assembly by teens and adults.

4. Display and Care

The 4D Build Imperial Tie Fighter is designed as a display model and is not intended for active play. Once assembled, it serves as an authentic addition to any collection or as decorative piece.

4.1 Displaying Your Model

• The model measures approximately 7.8 inches (20 cm) in height, 8.5 inches (21.5 cm) in width, and 13.2 inches (33.5 cm) in length. Ensure adequate space for display.

4.2 Care Instructions

• Keep the model away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and moisture to prevent warping or fading of the cardstock.
• Dust the model gently with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush. Avoid using liquid cleaners.
• Handle the model with care to prevent bending or damaging the delicate cardstock pieces.

• Adhesive Safety: Use the included glue in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of small children.
