Shadowhawk Build Notes

Before assembly it is advised you wash all parts in warm water with a mildly abrasive cleanser such as Softscrub or Bar Keepers Friend. Trim all flash with a sharp razor knife.  It is strongly advised you test fit all parts prior to assembly.  Quick-set CA is my glue of choice. 

Here is what you should receive:


The feet and lower legs are bilaterally symmetrical so don't worry about which is which. The ankles, knees and hips have ball and socket joints allowing for posability. 


Glue legs into hip section and glue on the armor flanges.

Next, assemble the arms. You can pose the arms at the shoulder, elbow, and wrist. 


Add the cockpit, SRM-2 and shoulder joints to the torso.


Attach the torso to the leg assembly.  You can glue it, mod it for magnets or leave it friction attached. 


Add the Arms...


Trim the pour stub off the arm laser and glue to the arm where you see fit. 




Attach the jump pack and the AC 5.



And there you have it. Your Shadowhawk is assembled.  I would advise painting the sub-assemblies before the final assembly.
