MAXi Train is a remix based on the Mini Train Collection of BamBam Design, applying a 2.5x upscale ratio to make it maxiiii…

The MAXi Train series ventures into the sands of time with Pharaoh’s Glory, a miniature tribute to the enduring wonder of ancient Egypt. This handcrafted diorama brings together iconic symbols of Egyptian heritage: three grand pyramids, one of which features a carved stone tunnel through which the train gracefully passes. Standing watch nearby is the mysterious Sphinx, while a slender minaret rises from the horizon, echoing centuries of culture and faith. At the edge of the desert, an oasis lined with palm trees offers a burst of life, creating contrast and balance within the scene. But the true centerpiece is the steam-powered Egyptian train, weaving through the landscape and linking each element with smooth, continuous motion. As with every MAXi Train creation, Pharaoh’s Glory combines architecture, storytelling, and subtle mechanics to evoke the soul of a timeless civilization in a single collectible piece.

This new design is based on the Mini Train Collection of BamBam Design (https://linktr.ee/bambamdesign). This model is 2.5X bigger than usual BamBam Design Mini Train Collection. You are free to adapt the scale if you want to make it compatible with other designs. In this case, be aware that some piece might be very small and also make sure to also apply the same ratio for magnets. Apply a 40% or 0.4 ratio to be compatible with BamBam Design Mini Train Collection.

Assembly:

Needed :

• 6x Round Magnet 10x5mm

Steps:

1. Insert 3pcs magnets (10x5mm) in the trains (Egyptian Train).
2. Insert 3pcs magnets (10x5mm) in the wheel’s pin. These magnets must attract the trains (Egyptian Train).
3. Add the wheel’s pin onto the wheel, fix the wheel to the base by pressing gently. Wheel’s pin must follow the designated path. You can use the trains or some spare magnets to prevent the wheel’s pin movements of the path while doing so.
4. Use a lighter or an hot air gun to bent the palm leaves a bit. (Do not overheat the plastic!)
5. Fix the terrain to the base by using palm trees dedicated. You can add a bit of glue to combine.
6. Fix others elements such as monuments and buildings. You can add a bit of glue to combine.
