Assembly
Take two Kinder Surprise plastic shell parts and insert them into the cherry colour parts (outer parts). Then insert black inner parts into the plastic parts as shown on the pictures.
Insert the rectangular plastic sheet inside as shown.
Sew the black colour rectangular part onto the lower body part as shown on the picture.
Sew the black colour rectangular part onto the upper body part as shown on the picture.
Take a cherry colour rectangular part and place it on the outside. The plastic sheet is now hidden between the black and the cherry colour rectangles. Sew the two rectangles together as shown.
Attach and sew the cherry colour rectangle to the upper part of the body.
Take a piece of wire and make a frame for the arms. Insert the frame as shown (the wire bit should fit into a hollow between the lower and upper parts of the body from outside). Try the cherry colour arm parts on to ensure the wire frame sits comfortably and no excess bare wire bit is sticking out.
Attach and sew the bottom bit to the rectangular part as shown on the picture. The wire is now hidden inside.
Sew the arms onto the body.
Attach the legs to the bottom part and sew them on.
Sew the teeth on.
