Setup and Assembly
The YOLOPARK AMK Series EVA-02 figure is largely pre-assembled. Minor assembly is required for accessories and the display base.
- Unboxing: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Attaching Accessories:
- To attach the Thunder Spear or Progressive Knives, gently insert the weapon's handle into the designated grip hand. Ensure a snug fit.
- To change hands, carefully pull off the existing hand from the wrist joint. Align the new hand with the wrist joint and push firmly until it clicks into place. Avoid excessive force.
- Display Base Assembly: The display base is designed to support the figure and store accessories. Assemble the base components as shown in the diagram below. The support arm can be adjusted to various heights and angles.

Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity of your figure.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away dust. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Storage: Store the figure away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity to prevent material degradation and discoloration.
- Joint Care: If joints become stiff, gently work them back and forth. Avoid forcing movement. If joints become loose, a small amount of clear nail polish or a specialized joint-tightening fluid can be applied to the ball joint and allowed to dry, increasing friction.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Parts are difficult to attach or detach. | Apply gentle, even pressure. If a part is too tight, try warming it slightly with a hairdryer on a low setting (briefly) to make the plastic more pliable. Allow to cool before handling. |
| Joints are too loose, making posing difficult. | Refer to the "Joint Care" section under Maintenance for instructions on tightening joints. |
| Figure does not stand stably. | Ensure the figure is placed on a flat, stable surface. Utilize the included display base for enhanced stability and dynamic poses. Adjust leg and foot articulation to find a balanced stance. |
| Paint transfer or discoloration. | Avoid prolonged contact with other painted surfaces or materials that may cause chemical reactions. Store away from direct sunlight. |
