I believe this is a limited release and is only available at Tokyo Sea Life Park. The sticker on my package came with a sticker that said 25th anniversary, but I’m not sure which one.

The first step is building 2 base layer sections and connecting them. I tried, but I couldn’t use my nanoblock pad as a base because some squares were not lined up.

The rest of the tuna’s body goes up in layers, rounding out the body and closing it up.

Then, the fins and tail are added.

The last step is to connect the tuna to the base.

Things I liked:

  • I like that there are a number of limited releases including this one, I feel that it would make a special souvenir while traveling. It does make it harder to collect the kits.

Things I didn’t like:

  • I don’t like when bricks are stuck in ball socket joints to create eyes
