Operating & Display
Once assembled, your Nanoblock Curious George model is ready for display. This is a static model designed for exhibition rather than active play.
- Display: Place the finished model on a flat, stable surface. Its compact size makes it suitable for desks, shelves, or display cabinets.
- Handling: Handle the model with care to prevent accidental disassembly, especially due to the small size of the interlocking blocks.
Maintenance
To keep your Nanoblock model in optimal condition:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush or a can of compressed air to gently remove dust from the model. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these may damage the plastic.
- Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all pieces in a sealed container to prevent loss.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Pieces: Carefully check the packaging and surrounding area. If pieces are genuinely missing, contact KAWADA customer support.
- Difficulty Assembling: Double-check the instruction diagrams. Ensure the correct blocks are being used and that they are oriented correctly. Sometimes, a small error in an earlier step can affect later steps.
- Unstable Model: Ensure all blocks are pressed firmly together. Re-examine the base layers for any loose connections.
