Doraemon is a little robot from an anime for little kids. He has sorts of tools that he uses to help a little boy. He holds a special place in my heart since it was the only TV show I could understand while I was studying in Japan. I bought this kit to have him sit inside the Time Machine build.

You begin the build by creating the body. You start with a blue base that makes up the body’s core. You then add the white and adding the details of the feet. Next, you add the little red brick that makes up the tail. You then build up the feet and body by adding layers. Eventually, you get to add on arms and Doraemon’s little bell. The last stage of the body is adding the red that both holds the head and forms the collar.

The next part of the build is creating the head. I was thrilled that I had my nanoblock pad for this build. This is because you regularly add to the base with pieces connecting on the second layer over the first few steps. Once you have completed the first and second layers, you build up the head like usual. It is a general sphere build where you build the outside with a hollow inside. As you make the head, you add the details of the eyes, nose, and eyes. The final step of Doraemon is adding his whiskers. These are tricky because you are setting them at an angle instead of stacking bricks. I found it easier to put the main brick on the model first and then adding the slanted bricks.

Overall I really liked the Doraemon build. I think he is highly recognizable with great coloring. I like that there are details like the curved feet and the bell.

Things I liked:

  • The amount of detail in the character
  • I really like that Sitting Doraemon fits in the Time Machine build (Shown above)

Things I didn’t like:

  • The base of the head would have been hard without a nanoblock pad
