Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your model remains in pristine condition, keep the set away from direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent plastic discoloration.

If you choose to dust the model, use a soft-bristled brush or a can of compressed air at a distance, as the intricate brick details can be fragile. This set is compatible with standard display cases if you wish to protect it from dust accumulation over time.
