There was a little delay with this build as my instruction manual was missing page.
Thank you @Liset for taking your time and send me the pdf file of every single page of the manual that you had.

I started painting the parts. Adding touch of golden colour, red, purple and white. This kit already have beautiful colours so I don’t want to customise it too much.

I notice the bird is a little rigid when it pops out. Does anyone experience similar thing? And will it be smoother after installing the electrical parts?

There are no wax so I didn’t. I was not satisfy will the bird chime but didn’t come out of the door. So I took it apart and fixed it. And that works well now.

Yes. I figured it out the possibility of the issue when I saw the instruction video on YouTube. So happy it works now.
