B - 1608 chip LED
B using 0.25 mm optimcal fibre
Using Gaia colour light gray (usually you paint the parts black , then apply a thin layer of gray to give you that weathering looks)
The antennae are installed with optical fibres.
A - A 8 bit microcontroller PIC12F675 is used to drive the red and white LEDs . For chip LEDs and white LEDs , one must be careful about the driving current and voltage , protection resistances are needed. Author uses 1/4 W resistances.
PIC12F675 (spec. , documentation , development tool)

Author also says Polyurethan coated wires are used (they are thin for limited spacing and heat resistant , so won't melt when heated)
C - 3 mm white LEDs x 2 .
D - power supply + and - connector.
The antennae are installed with optical fibres.
Left leg busy street 繁華街.
D - Microcontroller PIC16F88 is used

B - The yellow LED is used to give the inside a more sandy colour to match with the engine (foot) external part.
A - Right leg is a park. The movie has never shown what is in the right leg, residential area??
C- using a lot of optimcal fibre.
B - button batteries are used
C - The connector's pins are 5V (the microcontroller is operating at 3V, operating voltage range is 2 to 5.5V ), return pin and a pin for the synchroniztion signal from the microcontroller to control the flashing sequence of the LEDs on the runway of the ARM 01 (02) .
D - Those metal cylinders are actually magnets holding the plastic part (attached to the upper arm) to ARM's main ship body together.
A - Brass wires are used to detail-up the sensors
C - Another microcontroller PIC12F675 is used to control the illumination and alternating the lighting of 2 white LEDs and 1 red LED.
A - The canons are detailed-up.
LEDs (with flashing sequence controlled by the microcontroller) on the runway of both ARMs (center white line)
A - grooves in parts for the optical fibres.
C - Optimcal fibres are installed on all "antennae".
The yellow parts are all detailed-ups .
One spray the parts in black first , then apply a thinlayer of gray to give the weathering looks.
A - the main body encloses the 5V converter, microcontroller which controls the whole ship's LEDs flashing cycles (random timing).
Even the Destroid Monster (too oversized for 1/4000) has light ( chip orange LEDs , fibre) , controlled by the microcontroller in the main ship body. Wires run through the legs , out from the bottom of the feet.
The base of the Aoshima W550 display case is used to hold the model and house the switch.
