Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps carefully to assemble your Kratos 3D Puzzle Bust. No glue or tools are required for assembly.

Step 1: Prepare the Pieces

Carefully punch out all 150 pieces from the 16 EPS foam sheets. Organize them by sheet number or by component (e.g., head, torso, axe, stand) to facilitate easier assembly. Ensure all small tabs and slots are clear of debris.

Step 2: Follow Numbered Sequence

The instruction manual included in your kit provides a detailed, numbered sequence for connecting the pieces. Each piece is typically numbered, and corresponding slots are also numbered to guide you. Connect pieces by aligning the tabs with their respective slots and gently pressing them together. The EPS foam is designed to interlock securely.

Step 3: Assemble the Bust and Accessories

Begin by assembling the core structure of the Kratos bust, then proceed to attach the armor, beard, and head details. Finally, assemble the Leviathan Axe and the display stand according to the instructions. Ensure all connections are firm to maintain the model's structural integrity.

Display and Care

Once assembled, your 4D Build Kratos model is designed for display. Place it on a stable, flat surface such as a shelf, desk, or coffee table. The model measures approximately 11" x 7.6" x 12.5" (28 x 19.3 x 31.7 cm).

• Cleaning: To clean, gently dust the model with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the EPS foam material or printed details.
• Handling: Handle the model with care to prevent accidental detachment of pieces.
• Environment: Keep the model away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity to preserve its colors and material integrity.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly, consider the following:

• Pieces not fitting: Ensure you are using the correct pieces for the current step by cross-referencing with the included instruction manual. Check for any small tabs that might be bent or obstructed.
• Loose connections: Gently press pieces firmly into their slots. The EPS foam is designed for a snug fit. If a piece remains loose, verify it is correctly oriented.
• Missing pieces: Double-check all foam sheets and the packaging to ensure no pieces were overlooked during the punch-out process.
