Setup and Assembly
Follow these steps to assemble your Evangelion Proto Type-00 Model Kit. It is recommended to use hobby nippers for cutting parts from the runners and a hobby knife for cleaning nubs, if necessary.
- Prepare Components: Carefully cut all parts from their runners using hobby nippers. Smooth any rough edges or nubs with a hobby knife or file. Organize parts by section (e.g., head, torso, arms, legs, weapons).
- Assemble Main EVA-00 Body: Begin by assembling the core body sections: torso, head, arms, and legs. Follow the numerical order or visual cues on the parts for correct orientation. Ensure all joints are securely connected but allow for articulation.
- Attach Replacement Hand Parts: Select the desired hand parts from the included set. Gently attach them to the wrist joints. These can be swapped out to hold different accessories or for various poses.
- Assemble and Attach Pallet Rifle: Assemble the Pallet Rifle components. Once assembled, the rifle can be held by the EVA-00 figure using the appropriate hand part.
- Assemble and Attach Rocket Launcher: Assemble the Rocket Launcher. This large weapon can be held by the EVA-00 figure, often requiring both hands or a specific pose for balance.
