A pair of side cutters, a hobby knife, a fine file or sanding stick and plastic cement for any glued details are useful. For snap-fit assembly, careful trimming and sanding will improve fit and appearance.
No, the kit has multi-color molded parts so painting is optional. However, selective painting and panel lining will significantly enhance surface detail and realism.
Yes, the articulated joints allow repositioning. Take care when moving limb joints and avoid forcing tight connections to prevent stress on parts.
