Issue 22

The Helmet

Picture 1 shows the contents of this issue.


Picture 2 shows the numbers of the parts that are fitted to the helmet. Lay your parts out on a table so you know which part fits in what position. There is also a discrepancy in the magazine when it comes to fitting the left and right mask circuits.

Picture 3 shows the three-silver parts, the left and right mask circuits and the front antenna fitted to the helmet. The magazine has the left and right mask circuits the wrong way round. Please follow the illustration in picture 3 for their correct positions.

Place the right decoration in place as shown in picture 4, followed by the left decoration, picture 5.

Finally, place the metal foil decoration on the helmet as shown in picture 6.

That completes the assembly for this issue.

Attach the two studs by push fitting them in place, picture 3.
