Using this figure is easy. First, choose the weapon you want to use. If you pick the 'King Sword Raikiri', you can either hold it in the figure's hand or attach it to the back. For the 'King Twin - Bladed Hatatakami', just place it in the hands or on the back as well. To change poses, gently move the articulated joints. When posing the hands, select the optional hands that fit the stance you want. As for maintenance, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. Avoid getting it wet as it might damage the joints. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it clean. Don't try to force the joints too much, or they might break. Enjoy your Monster Hunter figure!
