    Just wondering if anyone who owns Apeface can tell me whether the wings are symmetrical, so that I could buy a R to replace a L and vice-versa. I'm missing both and starting to shop around. Thanks!

    nope, i didn't think so, so i just checked, one side's back where it joins to the plane is smooth, the other has a ridge so that they will fold together on his back in bot mode

    Ah! Maybe I see what you mean; if you look on the post/axle where it fits into the body, one has a groove. I went in the attic and found the L wing, but no other turned up. The hunt is on. If anyone has one for sale, please PM me. Thanks.
