Welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy your build  With regards to tools there are very few needed. A good set of small screwdrivers might be useful as well as some tweezers, you'll also need super glue for some parts. When using super glue it will be useful to have some cocktails sticks too, you then tip some glue into a container, I use daily contact lenses cases, then you just dip the cocktail stick in the glue and apply it to the part. The beauty of using cocktail sticks is that it gives you much more control helping you not to flood the piece you are sticking with too much glue  . You kind the instructions are pretty straight forward and as long as you follow them you won't have any problems assembling your R2
