Note: All joints are snap‑fit; avoid using glue unless you plan a permanent pose. If you want a pose that puts stress on a joint, a tiny dab of plastic‑bonding adhesive (e.g., cyanoacrylate) can add extra hold.
| Step | Action | Tips | |------|--------|------| | 1 | Snap the pelvis onto the torso (parts #12 & #13). | Apply a light pressure, not a hammer. Use a rubber mallet only if the fit is extremely tight. | | 2 | Insert the ball‑joint into the lower torso cavity. | Ensure the ball sits fully; it will be the pivot for the hips. | | 3 | Attach the hip sockets (parts #18‑#21) into the ball‑joint. | Slightly flex the sockets if needed; they should lock into place with a gentle click. | | 4 | Connect the spine reinforcement rod (part #22) through the torso’s rear. | This adds stability for dynamic poses. | | Step | Procedure | Why | |------|-----------|------|
