Comments: 

In addition to the graphic design of Chomp the Party Croc, an emphasis was put on user experience, leading to intentional design choices to make the construction process easier such as:

  • Glue flaps that don’t extend the full side length to allow the builder to press them together from the front and back.

  • The bottom of the mouth being connected to the front of the body while the rest of the head is connected to the back, so when the two are glued together, the head is well-secured to the front and back of the model.
