Ordering & Production

Get Ready for Your Metal Model Project

The Taikonaut is supplied as a DIY metal model kit and requires assembly before display. Review the product images and specifications before ordering to make sure the size and difficulty suit your expectations.

The illustrated instructions are included to guide the building process. Assembly tools are not specified as included, so prepare suitable tools separately before starting.

Because this model has 500 parts and a six-star difficulty rating, it is best approached with enough time, a tidy workspace, and careful attention to the instructions.

Assembly Information

Assemble Each Component with Care

Before starting, prepare a clean, well-lit workspace and organize the metal components. Follow the illustrated manual in sequence, checking the position and orientation of each part before connecting it.

Recommended tools:

• Needle-nose pliers
• Flush cutters
• Tweezers (optional, for handling small components)

These are general recommendations for metal model assembly; the exact tools included with this kit have not been confirmed. No glue is required.

Some components may have sharp edges. Handle them carefully, avoid forcing pieces together, and use controlled pressure when bending or connecting parts. Take breaks when needed to maintain accuracy throughout the build.

Care Instructions
