3. Display and Handling

4. Care and Maintenance

Regular care will help preserve the appearance of your collectible model.

Cleaning:

• Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a soft brush to gently remove dust from the model.
• For stubborn dirt, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the paint or plastic components.
• Do not submerge the model in water.

Storage:

• If storing the model for an extended period, ensure it is clean and placed in a protective container or its original packaging.
• Store in a climate-controlled environment to prevent damage from temperature fluctuations.

5. Troubleshooting

As a static collectible model, extensive troubleshooting is generally not required. However, if you encounter minor issues:

• Loose Parts: If a small part becomes loose, inspect it carefully. For minor reattachments, a small amount of model-safe adhesive may be used, but this should be done with caution to avoid damaging the finish.
• Paint Imperfections: Minor paint imperfections are rare but can occur. These are typically manufacturing variations and not user-correctable.
• Wheel Functionality: While the wheels are functional, this model is not designed for rigorous play. If wheels do not roll smoothly, check for any debris or obstructions.

For significant defects or damage upon initial receipt, refer to the customer support section.
